Portland's record isn't good, it isn't even average. It's below average... good grief you can draw out the ridiculous.
btw...who are these "experts" you're referring to and why did you put quotes around the word? You quoted me, but I never said that word. If you're referring to the media people I mentioned, I didn't identify them so how in the world can you know what they predicted record wise in the preseason? On top of all that, whatever someone may or may not have predicted for Portland record wise has absolutely nothing to do with who the coaches select for the AS game. I only brought up my personal experience because of your claim that "virtually everyone is saying that LMA shouldn't have made the team and the majority of the people are saying that Dame". Lots of people were saying LA was going to make the team and Dame wouldn't for the reasons spelled out.
Accept reality & move on
