    Chris Paul was traded, but you're right about LeBron.

    Melo used his impending free agency to force a trade - I think that's essentially the same thing.
    Harden and Howard (blech).
    Chris Bosh.
    Steve Nash.
    LMA (hahahaha!).
    Boozer (maybe more on a Monroe-level FA).

    So, New Orleans is the only team on this upcoming 5-gamer that you think the Blazers win? Or Orlando?

    Watched Orlando play the Suns on our off night down in Phoenix last week. I was actually very impressed with their backcourt and team defense. I think Orlando will give us problems. Especially with their big white man they have in the post! So yes, I think we end the trip off with a W. Day off in NOLA to rest, I think will help us out.

    The Blazers would have to go 12-44 the rest of the way to match your prediction.

    I don't think so.

    They're a little bit ahead of where I thought they'd be. Just slightly. I thought they'd be at 11-19 after 30 games, and they're already 11-15. The next few are tough.

    OKC
    ORL
    MIA
    ATL

    I could see us going 0-4, but out of those 4, I actually think MIA is the weakest.

    I actually think the Hawks are beatable..they're not playing like they were last season. I think they miss Carrol more than they thought they would. getting a split on these four games would be great

    I was dead on about our record after 30 games. The next 10 are going to be really tough. I said we'd go 3 out of 10, and our record after 40 games will be 14-26. What do you guys think?

    Great presumption on the 11-19. However I think we go 5-5 on the next ten. :)

    Without Dame or CJ? With those guys I think we beat NOP for sure. Without them? I don't know.

    @ NOP (W)
    CLE (L)
    @ SAC (L)
    DEN (W)
    @ UTH (L)
    @ DEN (L)
    MEM (L)
    LAC (W)
    GSW (L)
    OKC (L)

    That's how I think it will play out. Maybe. I guess it depends on who plays and who doesn't.

    Yeah, I think Im kinda in denial about them not playing, but it sounds like tonight might be the last game. Either way they will go 9-1 on the next ten. ;)

    In all seriousness. I think we can beat Memphis at home, I think we beat Utah on the road and I think we hand Gs their second loss...no joke.

    The two road games in Utah and Denver are going to be brutal. We never play well in those cities. Same with Sac. Not sure why we have trouble in Sac. The elevation in Denver makes sense (plus it's a back to back.)

    I agree with all of these except the LAC win. Just want to hear you're reasoning behind that one.
