Wowsers, pretty easy schedule to start. Seriously, the Blazers could "conceivably" win 18 games before a legitimate tough test - a road game in Utah.
 
Nate sucks! Fire Nate!!!!!!!!
 
i think the blazers have a legitimate chance at being the final undefeated team.

Sweet chocalatey Jesus, if we went 18 - 0...I'd be as excited as HCP in a Turkish bath house!
 
Tomorrow might be a tough test because of how good Denver can be. But, we're at home and we're more talented, IMO.

We just can't get punished by points off of turnovers.
 
I think I had us at 15-3 after 18 games. It's definitely possible to best that, though. I'd be ecstatic with anything about 12-6, to be honest.
 
if im being brutally honest, an 18-0 record really isnt that impressive considering who we've played and the fact that we've barely won some of those games. we could easily be 10-8 if any of those teams were any good. And a 10-8 record would be pretty sad against such an easy schedule.

the league gave us a gift and we tried our best to screw it up. now the real games begin and i have a bad feeling.

just being honest, i dont go for all that homerism.
 
at New Orleans and at Atlanta will be tough.

I am confused, did I miss 17 games already. I know this thread is about us starting 18-0, but your quote shows us barely winning games in the past tense. I personally will settle for 2-0 to start the season, then 3-0, 4-0, etc.

Nice MIXUM impersonation.

If the teams were any good, then the schedule wouldn't be so easy. :devilwink:
 
Did anyone see New Orleans tonight? Talk about a team looking flat from the opening tip!
 
18-0?

We aren't THAT good.
 
18-0?

Hell naw!Not with Nate coaching this team. I think 14 -4 is a little bit closer to good ol', sweet ,reality.
 
I wouldn't take for granted beating Denver tomorrow from what I saw tonight. All of you who are going to the Garden tomorrow night better bring your "A" game and get some energy in the building.

If we do beat Denver, I predict we'll go 10-0 to start the season.

I project we will go 81-1 (we are going to forfeit the Christmas game as an act of charity because our guys are just THAT nice). I don't actually think that is very impressive. I mean we have all this talent and it's only natural. Anything less than 80 wins can be taken as obvious evidence that Nate should be fired and Pritchard doesn't know how to get an in-season trade done to improve our team's weaknesses.

Thank goodness no one has unrealistic expectations around here!
 
After watching the way the Nuggs beat the shit out of Utah in their own crib tonight I'll be happy if we can just start the season 2-0 ... the only upside I see is that they played HARD and will be on the second of a traveling back to back.

All this 18-0 mess though ... yikes!? What has anybody seen that I'm apparently missing, in the past couple of weeks and the first game of the season that even comes close to suggesting this team is ready to run the table for the first quarter of the season?
 
I'm far from impressed with your level of homerism. It's quite clear (from my learnings and the season sample) that we will remain undefeated forever.
 
San Antonio will beat us on November 6. They are good this year.

Look at the Lakers first 21 games...only 4 road games

IMO the away game against the Nuggets has the biggest chance to lose but now I dont even think that after the Nuggets got the Lakers attention with a little preseason scuffle. I would say their game against the Mavs this friday (which I am going to :ghoti:) will be the game with the second most chance to lose....but the Lakers own the Mavs like a ho!
And in case you are wondering the Lakers schedule is like this it because the Grammy take over the Staples Center for a week in February.
 
No way. We'll have some rough spots early in the season before we start cruising.
