He took all the time to make the post, might as well reply, right? I feel cautiously optimistic about this season. I am most excited to watch Lillard and Aldridge but I hope Nolan Smith never gets playing time. My thoughts on our new coach are meh. If the coaches keep everyone's attention I will be pleased, but if they rely too heavily on LMA I will be pissed. Our staring five at the beginning of the season will be Aldridge, Batum, Lillard, and Wes, and Leonard. Aldridge will average 19 ppg and 9 rpg. Now that Batum has his new contract I expect him to suck in general with 10 ppg. Wes is playing on a healthy ankle so I expect consistent hustle and defense from him. His 3pt % will be mediocre and batums will be slightly better. Lillard is going to be our general in his first year, a difficult thing to do. I expect Lillard to play 32 mpg and average 15 ppg, 6.5 apg. The thing I like most about him is his shot, but nothing about him really makes me nervous. I expect Smith to be the main back up pg for most of the season Aside from Aldridge, we have several other bigs. Out of Hickson, Leonard and Freeland, I expect Leonard to start the most games. Before the all-star break I expect ML to average 8 ppg, 9 rpg and 1 bpg. After the all-star break I expect ML to put up the same numbers. Freeland will play most of his minutes at the PF and will average 5 ppg, 6 rpg and 2 apg. Hickson will mainly be thought of as a steadying presence. Will Barton will punch a teammate. As a team I expect this season to be different because we suck now. Overall I predict 35 wins and 47 losses for the blazers this season. Now to be bold. I think I don't know how to finish this thought. As far as the the 8 teams to make it out of the west, I predict Lakers, Thunder, Mavs, Clips, Spurs, Jazz, Nuggets and Grizzlies and the best record will go to OKC. One last thing I want to say is may the God of Knee Parts watch over the Portland Trailblazers. Amen.
I feel good about this season. I am most excited to watch Lillard and Leonard but I hope Lauderdale never gets playing time. My thoughts on our new coach are FINALLY. If the coaches run a motion offense I will be pleased, but if they start runnig ISO's I will be pissed. Our staring five at the beginning of the season will be Aldridge, Batum, Lillard, and Matthews, and Hickson. Aldridge will average 22.3 ppg and 9.1 rpg. Now that Batum has his new contract I expect him to take more shots with 15.6 ppg. Wes is playing on a healthy ankle so I expect the same from him. His 3pt % will be .345 and Batums will be .352. Lillard is going to be our general in his first year, a difficult thing to do. I expect Lillard to play 32.4 mpg and average 14.5 ppg, 7.4 apg. The thing I like most about him is his ability to make shots, but his inexperience makes me nervous. I expect Ronnie Price to be the main back up pg for most of the season Aside from Aldridge, we have several other bigs. Out of Hickson, Leonard and Freeland, I expect Hickson to start the most games. Before the all-star break I expect ML to average 5 ppg, 4.1 fouls and struggle with the ups and downs as a rookie. After the all-star break I expect ML to put up 11.1 ppg, 8.9 rpg and take over the starting center role. Freeland will play most of his minutes at the 5 and will average 6.7 ppg, 4.8 rpg and 2.3 apg. Hickson will mainly be thought of as trade bait after the all star break. Will Barton will be a solid bench guy this season. As a team I expect this season to be different because for the first time in over a decade it will be fun to watch. Overall I predict 38 wins and 44 losses for the blazers this season. Now to be bold. I think 4 Blazers will represent the team at all-star weekend. As far as the the 8 teams to make it out of the west, I predict. OKC, LAL, LAC, MEM, SAS, DAL, UTA and DEN and the best record will go to OKC. One last thing I want to say is _________________________________________________.
I feel Pretty good about this season. I am most excited to watch Lillard and Leonard but I hope Babbitt never gets playing time. My thoughts on our new coach are pretty good because we have a new offense that actually moves. If the coaches get the players to buy in on the defensive end I will be pleased, but if they sacrifice our young guys development to chase wins, I will be pissed. Our staring five at the beginning of the season will be Aldridge, Batum, Lillard, and Leonard, and Matthews. Aldridge will average 24+ ppg and 9+ rpg. Now that Batum has his new contract I expect him to show his growth and potential with 18+ppg. Wes is playing on a healthy ankle so I expect solid defense and effort from him. His 3pt % will be 40% and Batum's will be 40%/B]. Lillard is going to be our general in his first year, a difficult thing to do. I expect Lillard to play 35 mpg and average 16.5 ppg, 6 apg. The thing I like most about him is his poise, but his defense makes me nervous. I expect Smith to be the main back up pg for most of the season Aside from Aldridge, we have several other bigs. Out of Hickson, Leonard and Freeland, I expect Leonard to start the most games. Before the all-star break I expect ML to average 10 pts and 8 rebs. After the all-star break I expect ML to put up about the same numbers. Freeland will play most of his minutes at the Center position and will average 8 pts and 5 rebs. Hickson will mainly be thought of as Backup PF with great athleticism. Will Barton will play an important role off of the bench with potential to be our 6th man. As a team I expect this season to be different because last year we had lazy vets and this year we are going to play like we are hungry. Overall I predict 35 wins and 47 losses for the blazers this season. Now to be bold. I think Lillard will win Rookie of the year. As far as the the 8 teams to make it out of the west, I predict. LAL, SAS, LAC, OKC, MEM, DEN, DAL and (Dare I say POR?) and the best record will go to Miami Heat. One last thing I want to say is FUCK THE LAKERS AND FUCK MINNESOTA!!!!!. Enjoy
I feel like we have a fresh start this season. I am most excited to watch Lillardand Leonard but I hope The injury bugnever gets playing time. My thoughts on our new coach are total openmindedness. If the coaches play the young guys I will be pleased, but if they are overly concerned with winning now and not developing the youth I will be pissed. Our staring five at the beginning of the season will be Aldridge, Batum, Lillard, and Wes, and Hickson. Aldridge will average 24.2 ppg and 8.7rpg. Now that Batum has his new contract I expect him to be a little more aggressive with 15.6ppg. Wes is playing on a healthy ankle so I expect his defense to return . His 3pt % will be .375 and batums will be .410. Lillard is going to be our general in his first year, a difficult thing to do. I expect Lillard to play 34 mpg and average 15ppg, 6.5apg. The thing I like most about him is shooting stoke, but Price and Nolanmakes me nervous. I expect Nolan to be the main back up pg for most of the season Aside from Aldridge, we have several other bigs. Out of Hickson, Leonard and Freeland, I expect ML to start the most games. Before the all-star break I expect ML to average 6.2, 5.5and 1. After the all-star break I expect ML to put up 9.5, 9.0 and 1.8. Freeland will play most of his minutes at the Center positionand will average 4, 6.5 and .9. Hickson will mainly be thought of as an offensive boost off the bench after ML takes over the starting spot.Will Barton will be nothing special but will show just enough slimpses of what he could be to make fans drool for more, but when he gives more they will all say he sucks. As a team I expect this season to be different because even losing should be fun to watch due to the motion, speed and all the youth. Overall I predict 30wins and 52 losses for the blazers this season. Now to be bold. I think by the end of the season many will be saying that Meyers will be the best big from his class when all is said and done. As far as the the 8 teams to make it out of the west, I predict. I feel like we have a fresh start this season. I am most excited to watch Lillardand Leonard but I hope The injury bugnever gets playing time. My thoughts on our new coach are total openmindedness. If the coaches play the young guys I will be pleased, but if they are overly concerned with winning now and not developing the youth I will be pissed. As far as the the 8 teams to make it out of the west, I predict. LAL, OKC, LAC, MEM, SAS, DAL, UTA and DEN and the best record will go to LAL. One last thing I want to say is I hope everyone can learn to enjoy the losses this year, cause there are going to be a lot of them.
I feel melancholy about this season, since it promises to be exciting and I’ll be spending most of it hoping Afghanistan gets overseas League Pass. I am most excited to watch Lillard and LMA on the P&R but I hope AmMo never gets playing time. My thoughts on our new coach are wait and see. If the coaches abide by their stated plan to run and press more I will be pleased, but if use Jeffries and Pavlovic like we used Juwan Howard in previous years I will be pissed. Our starting five at the beginning of the season will be Aldridge, Batum, Lillard, and Hickson, and Wessy Wes, with Freeland and/or Leonard moving quickly to C. Aldridge will average 24 ppg and 9 rpg. Now that Batum has his new contract I expect him to keep improving with 17 ppg. Wes is playing on a healthy ankle so I expect veteran solidity from him. His 3pt % will be >40% and batums will be 37%, since I hope he’ll be shooting fewer standstill corner threes. Lillard is going to be our general in his first year, a difficult thing to do. I expect Lillard to play 34-36 mpg until he hits the rookie wall and average 13 ppg, 8 apg. The thing I like most about him is his P&R vision, but the whole Weber State competition thing makes me nervous. I expect someone not currently on the roster to be the main back up pg for most of the season Aside from Aldridge, we have several other bigs. Out of Hickson, Leonard and Freeland, I expect Freeland to start the most games (mostly on the tail end of the season). Before the all-star break I expect ML to average 4pt, 4reb and 14 mpg. After the all-star break I expect ML to put up 7pt, 8reb and 24 mpg. Freeland will play most of his minutes at the 5 and will average 10 ppg and 7 rpg. Hickson will mainly be thought of as solid B/U PF and 2nd-unit scorer. Will Barton will still be under 170 lbs at the end of the season. As a team I expect this season to be different because there’s light at the end of the tunnel and an entertaining style of play while growing. Overall I predict a homeristic 41 wins and 41 losses for the blazers this season. Now to be bold. I think that we will win one playoff game at the RG. As far as the the 8 teams to make it out of the west, I predict. POR, L*L, LAC, SAS, OKC, DEN, MEM and UTH and the best record will go to L*L. YES, I think all 5 NW div teams will be in the Top 9 (MIN #9). One last thing I want to say is my soapbox for most of the summer. I think it’s funny that the GM says that he’s ok with fans holding him and the team accountable for the players and play on the court, but “it’s (their) business” how team uses salary cap and pays players. I’m not advocating the godlike devotion that some had for KP (kpee?), but I think if the basketball staff realized their fans were more savvy than most on these matters then it would go a long way to rebuilding some of the front-office-to-fan schisms that the “journalists” in Portland can exploit.
I feel shitty about this season. I am most excited to watch Lillard and Leonard but I hope HCP never gets playing time. My thoughts on our new coach are . If the coaches do good I will be pleased, but if coach do bad I will be pissed. Our staring five at the beginning of the season will be Aldridge, Batum, Lillard, and Wes, and Hickson. Aldridge will average 22ppg and 9rpg. Now that Batum has his new contract I expect him to punch people in the cock with 15ppg. Wes is playing on a healthy ankle so I expect mediocrity from him. His 3pt % will be fine and batums will be gooder. Lillard is going to be our general in his first year, a difficult thing to do. I expect Lillard to play some mpg and average 17ppg, 8apg. The thing I like most about him is he's on our team, but clowns make me nervous. I expect Price to be the main back up pg for most of the season Aside from Aldridge, we have several other bigs. Out of Hickson, Leonard and Freeland, I expect Hickson to start the most games. Before the all-star break I expect ML to average 4.5 fouls per game, 1.8 TO's and 1.5 apg. After the all-star break I expect ML to put up similar numbers, I already told you and stop making me repeat myself. Freeland will play most of his minutes at the 4 or 5 and will average 8 ppg, 5 rpg and 1 British Accent. Hickson will mainly be thought of as a starter. Will Barton will like to shoot. As a team I expect this season to be different because different people will be injured. Overall I predict 25wins and 57 losses for the blazers this season. Now to be bold. I think Morrison makes the team. As far as the the 8 teams to make it out of the west, I predict. Lakers, San Antonio, OKC, LAC, Denver, Memphis, Utah and Minny and the best record will go to OKC. One last thing I want to say is lamp.
