    If not for Twitter this morning this might be the dumbest thing I've read so far today.

    I'm pretty sure that only 1 season in the past 7 seasons have the Blazers finished under their Vegas win totals. I can almost guarantee that hardly anyone would bet on the under during that time because hardly anyone would risk money on a low win projection that way.

    So Vegas is indeed undervaluing the Blazers because they are losing money each time they go over. I get that this year they are predicting a regression but the article is stupid. Using one game out of 98 last year doesn't prove a point either.

    1. Turner and Bazemore/Hood was the lateral move
    2. Harkless got replaced with Hood/Bazemore
    3. Whiteside replaces Kanter I see it as an upgrade when Nurk gets back he will provide defense with the second team.
    4. While Curry is better then Tolliver, Tolliver is going to get more minutes then Curry because he will back up Zach and Curry is not going to come off the bench before Hood/Ant and paying 6 million more for 2% better 3pt shooting I think I will take Tolliver
    5. Hezonja replaces no one. He was filler at the end of the day if he works out we can jump up and down and go rub one out in the bathroom if not then we can drop him when we get next years draft pick
    6. Layman when it is all said and done I think could come back and possibly haunt us. I think he was a cap casualty and we are betting that Trent jr. will take his place
    7. I think you got Pau/Meyers Aminu/Zach spot on though. Pau coming in and working with Collins, Whiteside, Skal and even Nurk when he gets back could be the best pick up of the off season.

    OK, I have a lunch wager with BLAZER PROPHET. If the Blazers win 49 or more games, I win. Less than 49 wins, he wins.

    I think I did OK. We shall see.

    Why 49? That's more than any sportsbook or prediction model.

    Guess it depends on what the winnings are right?

    He wouldn't bet me otherwise. I've enjoyed lunches from him the past three years.
