Will we win any? All?

Where will we finish, 3...4...5...6?
 
To answer the question, I think you could make the case we win all 3. And I think you could make the case we lose all 3. That is why you play the games.

The seeding question though, I would be shocked if we didn't get 4th or higher.
 
The Blazers won't finish lower than 4. They will probably keep the 3rd seed. I think the Blazers win the next 2 against SAS and Den. The Jazz game will be the toughest remaining game. I still believe. Blazers will finish 50-32 in 3rd place.
 
Best chance is probably San Antonio. Playing in Denver is always a problem, and Utah just looks scary right now. I wouldn't be shocked if they got skunked given Dame's balky ankle and the problems with the rotation with Moe and Ed out.
 
With Dame (and potentially Ed) we take all 3. We're fighting for HCA - the next two teams are fighting for their playoff lives and pressure can work against you.

And that's pretty much all that matters at this stage along with making sure all players are as healthy as they can be going into the playoffs. mediocre man seems to be the type that relishes in losses.

If we win the next two games then the Utah game is meaningless to us. What will be interesting is which team gets knocked out of the playoffs between Spurs, OKC, Pelicans, Twolves and Nuggets. I think the Clips are done.

In my humble opinion, we blank the balance of the schedule. Obviously, by doing that, our seating will be determined by other teams, so I can see us at 5.

I like our odds to finish no lower than 4th.
 
It's an exciting stretch of games, that's for sure.

It really could come down to the Utah game. The crowd needs to show up for that one from the opening tip. Can't take plays off. Need to keep the energy up and will the team to victory.

Blazers management should be seating the S2 posse behind the Utah bench for that one.

Utah doesn't have an easy task as they play at the lakers, GS and at Portland.
 
Blazers will get one of SA/DEN then close it out vs Utah. Honestly, all we have to do to get the 3 seed is beat the Jazz. Utah has the Warriors in SLC the night before as well.
 
With Baldwin being a little Brandon Roy, a little Andre Miller, and a little Pat Beverly, we should win the DEN game...maybe even the SAS game.

I'm waiting to buy tickets. That game might be completely meaningless.

I like what Baldwin has done in a small sample size, but putting him in the discussion of players like Roy, Miller and even Beverley at this stage is very premature. I hope he can live up to those standards but even if he doesn't can still become a solid role player.

I think the best comparisons I can come up with for Baldwin are Eric Bledsoe and Avery Bradley in their early years in LA/Bos. Would be amazing if Baldwin can become our third guard mainstay off the bench next year.
