Let's get this one Blazers!

 

[Idog1976]

Based on past performance (and in an attempt to reverse jinx) I see us escaping with a mere 60 point loss to the Champs.

Or Dame finally goes off and we win.

 

[oldmangrouch]

2 predictions.

1) Fugly loss.
2) Many fans will continue to insist everything is AOK.

Ill wait to see how we look come regular season to make judgments about the state of the team. The Blazers hardly ever play well in preseason anyway.

That said, let's get this win Blazers!

Just chatted with Brandon Williams. Headed out of town for the final time. Wished him luck.

At the airport?

 

[THE HCP]

At the airport?

Yeah in line going through security.

 

[THE HCP]

Just caught up with our point guard #0 in the lobby. I have to admit I didn’t tell him about my 39 win prediction.

What should fans do instead? And how will it help? I want to know.

Let's assume Jody will sincerely try to sell the team at some point. Will an unhappy fanbase and empty seats improve the sale price? It's a given that very few owners actually care about the fans. Empty seats and poor TV ratings are the only tools we have to get their attention. The (supposed) sale of the team will make an unhappy fanbase a little more urgent. It may be a longshot - but what else is there?

 

[illmatic99]

hoping to see at least some improvement tonight. tired of getting stomped every game.

They'll play better tonight.

Not overract

 

[GrandpaBlaze]

They'll play better tonight.

So.....you are saying we'll only lose by 20?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

So.....you are saying we'll only lose by 20?

That would be better yes.

I think you need to take one for the team. Fire him up with "some jabroni from Portland that doesn't know shit telling him he can't make the playoffs."

What about 23?
And please tell him. More fuel for his fire!!!

That could backfire. Who wants to buy a team with a declining fan base?

 

[DDolla]

Jabari is ready for the fan fest

 

[PDXFonz]

What happened to Draymond?

 

[DDolla]

What happened to Draymond?

Superman Punch Poole

Was this his reaction after you told him he’s only winning 39 games this year?
