Extremely Difficult 4-Game Stretch Ahead

Careful what you wish for. 1-3 or 0-4 is easily possible.

Careful what I wish for? I said I hope he's wrong. Does it sound like I'm confident he is?

I hope u are wrong


Go Blazers!

That NOLA/OKC back to back will be tough!

And Miami will look at our matchup as a statement game.

I agree with both your assessments. Miami isn't playing a no-playoff team any longer. I think they see us as a possible match up in the finals. I'm sure they come up for that game.

I would rather lose the Nola game and beat Okc on their home floor.

No it's not. Your head is stuck in 2012 or 2011 or some other year we sucked. This is a different team that we haven't seen the likes of in TWENTY YEARS. We're WAY too good to go 0-4. More people here have to take ownership with how good we are. This is different than all those years where we WOULD go 1-3 or 0-4. This TEAM is different.

Ok, so we might win 73 games this year?

We're on pace for 66.

The OKC game is the only one we have a chance of losing. Playing Miami this time of year isn't the same as playing them in the playoffs. We'll beat them at home, and injury-plagued Wade might not even play. We're way better than LA and we'll be pissed at the Pels for letting them come close in P-town. I say 4-0.

Looking at the opponents, days we play, statistics, etc, we should go 1-3

It's a little trickier because of the new rotation though.

Adding Leonar_ to the rotation is idiotic since he is exactly what we don't need.

Losing Mo might be a plus though

Interesting. Where do you think we get that one win, Miami or OKC?

I don't think they will get a win.

Right now though, and that changes daily, stats show @Pelicans is the winner

 

[tlongII]

I predict 6-0.

Dec. 26 vs Clippers L
Dec. 28 vs Heat W
Dec. 30 @ NO L
Dec. 31 @ OKC L

It's a possible 0-4 stretch there, so as much as I'd like to keep up the "let's get greedy" mindset, I'd happily take 2-2 but my prediction is 1-3. NO played us well tonight and we barely beat them.

If we lose all four, we could possibly be dropped to the 4th seed (ouch!).

What does this team have to do to get you and everyone else to quit doubting them?

I think the go 4 and freaking 0! lol
