[HailBlazers]

[THE HCP]

That is a pretty easy first 20 games........ I say 10-10.

OKC, San Antonio, Boston, Indiana are the 4 losses. The rest are W's.

9-11

I see us winning 30-35 games this year max. No way win nearly a third of that in the first month alone.

There are a lot of tough games, but we have some winnable games this 1st 20 too. Sacramento (2x), Washington, Charlotte, Detroit, Atlanta w/o Joe Johnson, Houston (2x) they look to potentially be a good team but as of right now it looks like they may be playing a lot of rookies. I think they win at least 7.

Seven home games for a very young team with a new head coach and question marks at center? I really think 7-13 is your answer. Teams like ours (young, inexperienced, emotionally driven) tend to play well at home but terrible on the road. With a couple of exceptions (losing to the Lakers at home but beating Charlotte or Cleveland on the road), we might be perfect at home and totally striking out on the road.

7-13 is my answer.

 

[SlyPokerDog]

Hate to say it but....

4-16

 

[Darkwebs]

8-12.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

Without looking at the teams but noticing the brutal 7-game road trip

5-3 at home
4-8 on road

9-11 total

edit:
looking a little closer
3-5 at home
5-7 on road

8-12 total

This team is the most difficult to predict of an Blazers squad I can remember. So many rookies, but an experienced core, a proven All-Star, and what looks to be an unusually gifted rookie PG. In addition, there are guys who are technically rookies, but who have a lot of experience in Europe. I'll say they go .400 in their first 20 games and improve from there.

8-12

If we win game 1 against LAL, look for a lot of posts that humbly suggest.... "Learn the Game, Then Post!"

Eight home games, genius. Eight. Your entire argument is invalid.

 

[Reep]

6-14

12 of first 20 on the road (I'll give them 2), and I only see four winnable games at home.

 

[Fender]

11.

9.

Boom.

 

[tlongII]

Season over

 

[BlazerCaravan]

[GriLtCheeZ]

I have no idea what the teams record will be after 20 games, but I fear for the season that the team is gonna be Cody Zeller bad.
