This Week's Schedule

[e_blazer]

Tuesday, Blazers vs. Phoenix
Friday, Blazers @ LA Lakers
Sunday, Blazers vs. Celtics

Two home games, no back-to-backs, and all three should be winnable. The way I see it, winning all 3 puts the Blazers back into the playoff hunt, 2-1 would be okay as a holding action, anything worse than that makes the tankers on the board giddy.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Hoping for giddiness

I think we will crush Phoenix, lose to the L*kers and beat Boston. Then again, maybe we trade Hickson at the deadline and win all three?

 

[The_Lillard_King]

riding a 5 game losing streak, I'll be happy to start with a win over Phx and put an end to the losing streak.

Don't see 3-0, but would start to get excited again if that happens.

The biggest event this week is right after noon on Thursday, when we analyze trades, especially if Olshey makes one, which I think he will, though only of substitutes.

Diagram that sentence.

 

[Nikolokolus]

They should beat Phoenix, but I'm not even sure that's a given. As for LA and Boston I'd put the odds at 7 to 1 against for winning both.

 

[KingSpeed]

Yes, all three are winnable and yes, we must win all three to make playoffs. Great post.

 

[THE HCP]

They should beat Phoenix, but I'm not even sure that's a given. As for LA and Boston I'd put the odds at 7 to 1 against for winning both.

Why should WE beat anybody right now? You seen us play lately?

 

[PapaG]

I am bringing both of my girls to tomorrow's game, and when they both go to a game with me, the Blazers have never lost. 6-0.

Bet heavy on the win tomorrow night. They are 2-0 when they get to go on the court before the game and slap five with the players as they come on the court.

Then quit being a cheapskate and take them to watch a game worth watching like a game against an above .500 team.

What kind of lesson are you teaching them? That winning comes easily?

Really? Keep it on the OT board.
