Blazers @ San Antonio on Christmas Day?

[PHXBlazer1]

by the time i see this we'll be running...

 

[BrianFromWA]

I'm hoping that running more fast breaks is Nate's "punishment" to Felton to attempt to get him into shape.

One can hope, right?

Who's looking forward to december 26th?

 

[bigbailes]

please don't play @SA before the first of the year. being completely selfish but that's one of two games within driving distance for me and of course i'll be in the NW for the holidays.

 

[Brock]

how would wes know the schedule?

 

[Mediocre Man]

The 26th was originally when we were scheduled to start.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

how would wes know the schedule?

But if HCP said it you'd believe it.

Christmas also falls on Sunday, the traditional Football TV day. But the day after......might work just wonderfully!!!

 

[SlyPokerDog]

No Christmas game for Blazers.

Blazers Will Not Play On Christmas For First Time Since 2006-2007

 

[BrianFromWA]

Could be even more fun if the Clips and W's make splashes even remotely close to those rumored.

 

[illmatic99]

Upstaged by the Clippers and Warriors. sigh.

That should speak volumes about the state of our team

 

[HailBlazers]

That should speak volumes about the state of our team

but it doesn't, except inside your own mind.

I honestly don't think I'm alone in that thought. I say that because I was repped twice for that comment

 

[HailBlazers]

And the same can be said for those people

 

[Carlito]

Clippers @Blazers should have been the late game. You notice every elite team is playing? Bulls, Heat, Knicks, Mavs, Lakers, Thunder, Celtics. Clippers have Blake who is new Durant to NBA. Magic have Howard. Only head scratcher is GS. Spurs and Blazers are next bunch.

My thought was Mark Jackson? They also have Curry who is a young wannabe star

 

[Carlito]

No excuse for warriors to be on Xmas day. That's a terrible job by nba. Not that anyone will stay up to watch that game in its time slot. But Clippers @ blazers or spurs makes a terrific NBA opening day. GS ruins it.

There is a lot that goes into determining the schedule, not just the wow factor of each team.

Spurs & Atlanta?

I'm kinda surprised they didnt pick Cleveland because of #1 pick Kyrie Irving.

 

[Carlito]

cmon, atlanta?

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

cmon, atlanta?

They finished ahead of NY last season.

You got repped for that? Whores.

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

You should be embarrased that you actually checked!

Warriors were on Christmas Day last year.

 

[KingSpeed]

Also- what does it matter? Did Dallas play on Christmas Day last year?

 

[Mediocre Man]

Please tell me you aren't comparing this Blazer team to last years Mavs team?

No you weren't. Don't lie.
