The Blazers don't have home court in the first round because....

[mook]

Why?

 

[magnifier661]

They will get hca so I'm not worried why they aren't

 

[Yoda_of_the_MODA]

Because it will take a while to mesh the bench, and the Blazers won't need HCA as the 6th seed against Golden State, anyhow.

The bench is Mo Williams, Wright and Robinson. 2 seasoned vets and a #5 pick. Will it really take that long for them to figure it out?

 

[THE HCP]

We will def sneak up on some teams.

We will def sneak up on some teams.

All I hope is that we beat the teams we SHOULD beat, and stay competitive with the elites.

 

[KingSpeed]

Why?

The only teams that will definitely finish above us are Spurs and Clippers. After that, it's up for grabs.

 

[noknobs]

Why?

Because Portland didn't win their division and didn't have the next best record after the three divisional winners.

Why?

The other teams just won more games.

Why?

Because they played better.

Why?

I don't know. Perhaps they were just a better team.

Why?

'Cause they had better players, fuck if I know.

Why?

Jesus Christ. Maybe they drafted better. They were healthy. Maybe they made a trade with Kahn a few years ago, or free agents go there because they don't have a state income tax, or it was just blind luck. Does it really matter?

Why?

Are you just going to keep asking 'why' no matter what I say?

Why?

It's slightly annoying.

I don't know. That's my reasoning for the Blazers not getting HCA, though, as the thread was asking of us.
