Anyone else expecting the Blazers to lose to the Cavs and make history?

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Dunno. Seems like a Portland type of thing to happen.

I've posted a couple times it wouldn't surprise me to see them beat the Spurs and lose to the Cavs.

 

[tlongII]

I wouldn't be surprised. We're horrible on the road.

What would be the history, out of curiosity? I know the Cavaliers are one of the longest losing streaks ever, so it would be a pretty bad loss, but what record would Portland be setting?

Well, this forum can't be content with the past...it should always be looking to break its own record.

It wouldn't take a loss to the Cavs to set that record.

I hope not! Shit could get ugly!

Shit is already ugly.

Powe, Verajao and Mo Williams are all inactive. It would be a challenge for us to lose to them.

Actually, history is made if we win. If we win, the Cavs will set a new record for most consecutive losses in a single season.

the Blazers live to take on those kinds of challenges!

Re: Anyone else expecting th Blazers to lose to the Cavs and make history?

expecting? no, but am I worried we could easily lose this one - yes. This team is hurting, Wes in banged up, Nic still looks hesitant with the knee, Camby still out and Joel a shadow of his former self. Rudy shooting 36% for the year but looking better lately, Patty really not doing much. Overall our bench is very weak. When I write all this down I am amazed our record is as good as it is. I no longer think we will make the playoffs.

When half of your team can go 1 for 9 or worse on any given night, it is definitely possible for the Cavs to win. On any given season you are going to win games you shouldn't win, and lose games you shouldn't lose. If they didn't, we wouldn't bother playing the games because we could figure it all out on paper.

That's against the spread isn't it, not straight up?

 

[MIXUM]

well 6 points isnt lots either way.

that means people expect a very tight game.

 

[MIXUM]

epic forum explosion coming tonight me thinks.

That'd make you happy wouldn't it? You'd think as a die-hard lifelong Blazer fan that would upset you.

 

[MIXUM]

never said that anywhere in that post.

hcp... define what this place will be like if they lose to cavs. please do.

Another soccer mom pity party post. How neat.

 

[RoyToy]

I was thinking the was a real chance the Blazers could lose this game...until I looked at the Cavs lineup.

They really have no rebounders besides Hickson(someone has to get the rebounds). Hickson and Jamison is their starting 4/5 and the only other player in the starting 5 I even recognize is Ramon Sessions.

I know with the Blazers' luck there would seem like a real chance they could lose, but that roster is just too terrible.

And oh yeah, they have no one that can guard Aldridge. Hickson and Jamison are too short and Aldridge will be able to back them down and shoot right over them. I wouldn't be surprised to see a bunch of alley-oops, either. The Cavs have absolutely no length.

Keep me out of all your bullshit drama!

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

glad the reverse psychology worked!

 

[PapaG]

My favorite post in the thread was MIXUM saying that 6 points isn't that big of a deal.

 

[Blazer4ever]

I'm still asking myself who is Custer...

Hahaha!

HCP, you and MIXUM are the biggest drama queens on this board right now! It's like a slap fight whenever you two start to go at it in a thread.

U.S. history not your forte?

Maybe, but I'd like to think I have a little more credibility and my opinion means a bit more around here.
