    Can't listen to the whole thing right now, do you happen to have the time which this occurs?

    7.5 minutes in. He's not actually calling out HCP, but HCP did predict 20 wins.

    I genuinely felt like I was being a homer when I predicted 39 wins. Looking back, I had no idea that these guys would click so quickly and play together as well as they have. File in new evidence of the NBA being rigged if Olshey doesn't win executive of the year. To not only acquire all the talent that he has, but to also find players who fit into Stotts' offensive system as well as they have...Finding players all around the same age with the same goals which inspires a willingness to play unselfish and set out to make your team mates better.

    I have to say, I have much respect for HCP for continuing to bump this thread even though he eats crow each time. Admirable! :)

    Sooo completely happy for this team and the future of Blazers bball!!!!

    He's the guy who said February was going to be brutal due to strength of schedule. Yet here we are, 7-1 in February on Feb 24.

    We should get s running tally of who under estimated as their total gets passed. T long and HCP are the first in the list.

    I said 39, I think, but I think I'll be delighted and wrong.

    Haha! Originally... my 37 wins was ridiculed as a BIG :hcp: move back then; I felt 37 was definitely on the :hcp: side @ the time but not to the degree ppl were saying I was @ though. I really did believe our guys would surprise ppl (I thought we'd catch more wins/teams off guard earlier vs. later/current BUT of course we c that it's happening in the opposite:wink: I actually prefer the way wins/things r going down currently vs. what I thought would happen); I was confident the talent we have here was going to b able to do > ppl thought AND our guys were going to cont. to grow together/learn as the season went along.

    Our guys ARE going to beat my 37, soon I'll b happily added to those that have underestimated our guys!:smiley-yippee:

    I know. When I said 36 deep down I thought 32 was more realistic. Blazers are homerific!
