Of all the crazy scores we saw in what turned out to be Blowout Week, let's make sure we note that Portland's 84-50 halftime lead over Denver triggered the madness. I'd guess that the Blazers, mind you, are undoubtedly prouder of their top-10 D and exceeding-expectations bench crew.

seems about right.

We're still 1-2 on the road so I'm a bit nervous, but we're the hottest team in the league right now (we and Cleveland have won 4 in a row). Nice to get some recognition.

Blowout Week, lol. It's true.

Nice to start the season with so much home cooking. Now that the Blazers have their feet under them, here's to hitting the road running.
