For real, how is our chances ?

[BrunoSOC]

I'm still thinking that me we might have a chance... I mean, we play every well last 3 games.

Our chance for me is Dame have a career high, again. Or CJ and Him play pretty well... but what are you guys thinking?

Bring that game 6 to our house, Dame!

 

[KeepOnRollin]

I said we would win game 5. Realistically I think we have a 45% chance of winning the game which is pretty dang good considering home court is such a big advantage. Almost a coin flip.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I find it very hard to believe that we'd win a Game 7 in Oakland. I find our chances as quite decent to win a Game 6 at home, if it got there.

I don't think it'll get there, but I'm hoping. And I disagree with Draymond that it's ovah. I hope the rest of the team has that attitude, so that they get crushed by 30 again.

obvs.

 

[Schilly]

I don't think by any means that saying we don't have a great chance makes a person any less of a fan... Apparently if you don't predict pure wins 82-0 and 16-0 you are not a real fan. Our chances to win another game with Curry back are around 10%. Chances to win 3 of 4 are around .0001%

 

[BlazerCaravan]

I love our team. It would take a major letdown by Golden State to lose on Wednesday; it could happen but I don't put our chances better than 20% to get to game 6.

 

[Strenuus]

I said it before, but if we make it to game 7 thats a victory in itself... The league won't let us win game 7, that is for sure, but that to me is a series victory.

Also, Draymond Green may be the most unlikeable person/player I can remember in awhile. There's a thing called sportsmanship. Win with class, lose with dignity. He (and Klay) do neither. It's sickening. But, kids are going to see this, and emulate, because they are successful. I hope it doesn't catch on...

All it takes is a 3 game win streak....not impossible but I'm already overwhelmed with what we've achieved in the playoffs this season...it's all icing on the cake from here on...Go Blazers! If every game is as fun as the last 2 it'll be enjoyable...win or lose

All it takes is 3 wins against a team that hasn't lost 2 straight all year and has the backing of a corrupt league. lol.

Unfortunately, it's already been bought. I think we have a 40% chance of winning tomorrow, and then if we actually do, a 60% chance of winning game 6, but a .0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% chance of winning game 7.

(Cue the dumb and dumber meme)

 

[BlazerWookee]

We were one free throw away from ending that game in regulation, in which case ALL of the talk today would be Lillard's 36/10/6.

 

[Denny Crane]

They do have to play the games. One game at a time. No reason to fold now... I think Stotts and the players are going to make next game tough for the Warriors.

Seria fantástico se pudéssemos puxar este para fora ( Isso é o que ela disse !) , Mas ele simplesmente não vai acontecer FAMS ! Seja contente e feliz que os nossos meninos teve um grande ano e jogou acima expectativas ! Desde que eu tê-lo aqui , você tem sorte que eu mesmo estou respondendo a sua pergunta . Você é um novato e são ainda mais baixos na hierarquia do que esses nerds virgens se você pode imaginar isso. Escapar enquanto você tem a chance e rezo para que você não se transformar em um deles. #RipCity

It would be fantastic if we were able to pull this one out (That's what she said!) but it just ain't gonna happen FAMS! Be content and happy that our boys had a great year and played way above expectations! Since I have you here, you are lucky I'm even answering your question. You are a rookie and are even lower on the pecking order than these virgin geeks if you can imagine that. Escape while you have the chance and pray you don't turn into one of them. #RipCity

I highly doubt google translate is reliable for big chunk of text

 

[PtldPlatypus]

...which is really frustrating, seeing as Dame missed 3 of our 9 missed free throws, including two on technical fouls. Ugh--that stuff kills me!

You think I care rook. The reason I did this was because I did it before on his first post with us. He thought it was funny how bad of a job Google translate did.

Realistically you think we have a 45% chance of beating the Warriors at home where they have lost once all year? Realistically OBVIOUSLY doesn't mean what you think it means.

 

[riverman]

We're still 5-5 against higher seeds in the second round...that's nothin' to sneer at

 

[KeepOnRollin]

I believe technically they lost two there at home this season. And POR of course should have won game #2 on their floor.

I think POR has way too much heart this season to be a big dog in this game. So yes I think it is close to a coin flip with how bad our team wants it.

 

[Strenuus]

Would it though? Honestly, I think it'd be "Steph Curry goes off late, almost beats Blazers" or something.

 

[Strenuus]

Yep. If Dame had just made that one technical free throw on Livingston's ejection, it'd be a different story. One all about the Warriors, but one nonetheless.

 

[BlazerWookee]

No, it would have been "Curry finds his groove, but it's too little too late to beat Lilliard and the Blazers"

So did they not want it bad in games 1, 2 or at home in game 4? What makes this particular game so much more important to a team trying to win 4 play off games than the ones they lost?

You don't know how the NBA works, do you?

Uh, elimination game? And GSW is great. Of course. They are tough. POR has played them better than any team in the NBA however. It isn't like I said POR had the upper-hand here. You are quibbling on if it should be 25% vs 45%? Or 15%? I mean we can throw out numbers all day. POR can win this game. If you don't think so then there is no reason to even watch.

P.S. Glad to have you back MM. A lot of people have missed you and I am included in that.

Sure they can win. It's not likely, but it wasn't likely they'd win as many games this year as they did either. Calling it a coin flip game seems extremely irrational though....IMO anyway

[EGame]

Love our team and what they have accomplished, but I think now that Curry is back we can realistically expect to be done after game 5. Whether it is done in 5, 6, or 7 makes no difference how I view this team. These guys played there ass off all season and made a lot (including myself) look like idiots saying we wouldn't even sniff the playoffs.
