Blazers have played 7, so has Atlanta.

Every other team in the league has played more games at home:

12 for Boston
11 for Orlando
11 for Utah
11 for the Clips
10 for Cavs
10 for New York
10 for Denver
10 for OKC
10 for The Scum
10 for Sacramento
10 for San Antonio

Everyone else 8 or 9.

Doesn't LA have like 11? Blazers are definitely doing better than I expected.

I like how you make excuses even when your team ISN'T losing. :lol

so i guess this means we can look for the Clipps and Thunder to climb up the standings in the next few weeks

Solid Gold....tlongII needs to see that daily. I admit, I was going to post it for him since it has come up a few times lately.

As far as the scheduling goes, there is no NBA fix to help or hurt any team. It's all done to fit into arena availablity.

Examples: Chicago takes an early road trip every year because a circus comes to town. Lakers get two 7 game road trips in the winter next year because Staples is booked for other things. Often, a Laker and a Clipper game is played at home on the same day; hours apart of course. When the Lakers play a "road" game versus the Clippers at Staples, it's primarily a Clipper crowd, their fans own the season seats and cheer for them. Lakers will have fans there, but it isn't the edge that everyone else thinks it is.
