sadly, that seems to be more impressive than Portland will be.

Could be, portland isnt' looking to good now but we still have a lot of talent and could potentially be a lot better then the Hornet. Or we could continue this horrid streak and get a lottery pick while 2 of our big players are rehabbing. Only time will tell. If the Hornets can deal there giant expiring for a really good player then they will leave us in the dust, but we will see what happens.

Please, we've played more games than anyone to this point - and not against chopped liver. This isn't exactly a set that you can extrapolate the whole season from.

They have played more games, but they've also not beaten anyone with a decent record, and their best player is a shadow of himself, and our big off season signing hasn't exactly set himself out to be a great signing.

Their defense has been lazy, and they haven't played smart.

I don't care if we win the next 10 games, I just Brandon Roy to be alright.

Sorry.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Without Roy we don't have that player we can ISO.

LMA certainly is not that. Not even close.

Miller has shown he can ISO if posting up counts.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Do you trust his jump shot? I sure don't. He's not the player I'd ISO down the stretch.

doctors, nurses, health care workers and providers, teachers, construction workers, grocery workers, truck drivers, mechanics, architects....need I go on?

Those jobs don't depend on jumping up and down and running back and forth on a court. Honestly, you think a truck driver Is harder than playing professional basketball games back to back? No.

Blazers showed up and played the best they could. Your body doesn't operate the same if it has less rest. Period.

Whatever will Nate McMillan do???

You fail to appreciate the effects of using lots of meth.

You don't get to play the Clippers, Pistons, Raptors, and Knicks all season long.

I need a break from the Blazers. My outside life is being affected by the continuous punches to the gut we're taking so far to start the season.

Rudy complaining
GO not yet ready.
Roy asking for the ball.
GO getting tendinitis.
Wesley sucking.
Roy getting injured... again, and this time clouding his future as our star.
Losing two close games to OKC.
Losing to every over .500 team that we play.

Sighhhh..... and we're only 11 games in. After all the anticipation I had coming in to the season this training camp, I'm now eagerly awaiting a lockout next year.

If it makes you feel a little better, the Bucks are good. They will be over .500 soon and would be .500 now if we hadn't beat them.

The Blazers had opportunity to seize control of the game and failed to do so. NO is playing above their capability; this is a team that the Blazers should beat. I know they were winded from the previous game, but the chance to take out an unbeaten team is not something to pass up when your a decent team.

The defense will get better when Greg and Joel return, but there is something troubling about this team I've noticed the last few games: Their just doesn't seem to be much chemistry. I still think Roy & Miller are not on the same page. Nate needs to work on this issue - quickly.

Yes, but not better than all of them.

Beyond any doubt.

At least mixum is having an enjoyable season so far.

I eagerly await his apocalyptical thread....

It should be pretty good.

He's probably hard at work on it on a Microsoft word document as we speak.
