I think we're going to win it all this year

[tlongII]

It just feels like it's going to happen. We clearly have deficiencies, but we seem to overcome all obstacles in our way. I think we're going to win it all.

[BonnerDynasty]

Without any playoff experience?

[Amarelooms]

Good one homer...you might win ONE playoff game let alone a series.

Portland Trailblazers: 2008 NBA Champions

Finals MVP: Greg Oden

Certainly not a 2008 NBA Champion Blazer's banner of course.

Good luck with that...

Be prepared for what? Your team gets dominated by any team with an inside presence and you can't rebound for shit.

You can't handle the TRUTH!

The truth of what?

apparently the truth of an ill conceived opinion.

[703 Spurz]

It just feels like it's going to happen. We clearly have deficiencies, but we seem to overcome all obstacles in our way. I think we're going to win it all.

So you're going to win this year and next year too eh? b/c remember you said next year, with Oden, is when Portland will rule for at least 10 years.

[703 Spurz]

You can't handle the TRUTH!

:shootme

[manufor3]

Good one homer...you might win ONE playoff game let alone a series.
Ya that's probably right 1-2 games won in the playoffs at the most :fro

[tlongII]

We have the deepest team in the league. We can beat anybody.

[DazedAndConfused]

If Oden ever pans out into anything then yes the Blazers will be an elite team in 3-4 years.

[tlongII]

If Oden ever pans out into anything then yes the Blazers will be an elite team in 3-4 years.

3-4 years my ass! We're elite NOW!

[DazedAndConfused]

If you were elite now your record would show it.

[ratm1221]

I tried to watch a Blazers game once. :sleep

[tlongII]

If you were elite now your record would show it.

It does.

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

While I think tlong is a little overboard at the moment, if Oden comes back ready to play this team this team could win a championship in 2-3 years time. They've got an owner with deep pockets, they've drafted very well, Nate's a hell of a coach. The only thing missing from the mix is experience. They'll get a little this year, maybe add some vets.

I won't lie. I think a little part of me might be getting on the Blazers bandwagon.

What happened last night?

[tlongII]

What happened last night?

We lost at New Orleans. They happen to have one of the top records in the West. It was a 5 point game midway thru the 4th quarter. No shame in that.

[Roxsfan]

Listen Thong, the jail-blazers are going to lose again on Friday :elephant
the Tmac-less rockets lost a close one a few days back against New Orleans and you guys got blown out by New Orleans.

TMac and the Rox are now ready to put some of this Portland-hype to sleep for a bit tomorrow night.

Good teams can lose, and I expect them to lose on Friday. I'm not saying it will be a cake walk though.

It's not how you start, it's how you finish, so stfu.

Hey I dont think anyone other than Spurs fans can talk shit. Since you are a Pistons fan, you might as well STFU because you didnt win shit last year either. How was your Eastern Conference Finals? Got Dominated by Daniel Boobie Gibson? Man I dont even know who that rookie is before he went off on you guys.

Why talk shit if you're a Pistons fan?

[JamStone]

I'm not talking shit. I didn't say the Pistons would win shit.

Think before you post.

why don't you worry about your franchise repeating before you crack jokes about the rox, k so stfu :smokin

Losing by 2 points to said rockets this past Saturday after having the rox miss 3 key FTs down the stretch, practically begging you guys to take it and they still lost.
struggling to beat an 8 win team by 1 point tonight and getting your first win against a team with a winning record in over a MONTH against the Fakers yesterday..........the spurs are well on their way to repeating :rolleyes

I think you should just STFU period. Your franchise is an absolute joke right now. Tell us to worry about repeating?? DO SOMETHING relevent in the playoffs for once this decade then maybe you can say something. I don't give a crap about losing to the Rockettes in the regular season. You really want to be known for something then beat us or any significant team for that matter in the playoffs.

[NBA Junkie]

It just feels like it's going to happen. We clearly have deficiencies, but we seem to overcome all obstacles in our way. I think we're going to win it all.

You said the same about the Seahawks and we all know how that turned out. :lol

Wow, is that really the best you can do? How's that .548 winning percentage treating you? What it's like to be 5.5 games behind us even though we've been playing perhaps the worst ball that our team has played in 6 or 7 years?

Considering the Spurs were 28-13 at this point last year as well, logic would tell you the chances of a repeat are pretty good.

No? Cocksucker

[KFRebel]

Going straight to the CLASSICS.

[MoSpur]

:lmao

They're good. Real good and for real, but they're not gonna win the title. There are more experienced teams in the West that can take them out.

[DazedAndConfused]

I think any fan who just expects their team to be able to just turn it on midway through the season is setting themselves up for disappointment. It doesn't always happen.

I'm not saying the Spurs won't pickup their play, it's just gonna be a lot harder to repeat that 20-2 closeout with Parker not 100% and Barry out. Especially considering how much better the WC is this year.

I can easily see a team like NOH running away with that #1 seed simply due to the fact that they have managed to stay relatively healthy compared to the other top teams in the WC.

[himat]

:lol at this entire thread. I think Portland can be the new Golden State this season, but champions??

[Roxsfan]

To all the San Antonio fans above addressing me, yes the rox are not doing that great this season and have not done anything significant in the postseason in a very long time. So you win that one :toast

**puts his boxing gloves away**

Hey Thong, you were saying?



Ok, so you have a nice little team there with youth and b.roy is great, but calm down with this winning the title this year.

Wait till we play you straight up with Yao vs Oden, he will own his poor rookie azz...but wait 3-4 years and you guys will be something.

[Matchman]

okay relax guys... I will apologize if my comments were inappropriate...
Good Game Trailblazers, both teams played hard, thank you, good night.

[DazedAndConfused]

MAN THIS BOARD IS GETTING OUT OF CONTROL. Seriously FUCK EVERYONE, I hope the Clippers win the championship this year.

[tlongII]

The Rockets just beat us down tonight. They were very physical and we just didn't have the energy to respond.

maybe. but not this year. and not next year. but after that? definitely a distinct possibility, especially if Oden plays well and stays healthy....

This year is unlikely. Next year we'll get there without a doubt.

[endrity]

^dude, you are on the brink of the playoffs right now!!! Utah's schedule should only get easier. TMac is back, and that counts for something. Most likely you will not make the playoffs. And you are gonna win next year, cause Oden is back???? Do you even know what kind of a player he will be in the NBA. You think he will push other 7footer like Damp,Duncan, Kaman, Bynum around just like he did to those 6-5 kids in college???? Are you just SpursDynasty hiding behind a new name, trying to stir up some shit since his old act was getting tired.

Dude, Erica sucks really bad......I don't think Oden will have a problem with him. But straight up with Yao, maybe Dwight Howard.........Oden will get owned.

I have to admit, I miss these posts a little bit. But, I guess it will be a little more difficult to win it all if the Blazers don't make the playoffs.

[Shred]

That kind of hard-hitting, fact-based analysis makes me wonder why posters like you aren't writing for ESPN.com, CNNSI.com, etc. Or better yet, offering gamblers advice.

[tlongII]

Yep, we've kind of hit the wall it would seem. The playoffs look doubtful, but we'll have our time next season. We WILL arrive.

Before you crown yourselves the NBA champions consider that:

San Antonio beat Minnesota by 1. Hou wins by 6.
San Antonio beat Milwaukee by 2. Hou wins by 8.
San Antonio beat Cleveland by 7. Hou wins by 8 and 15.
San Antonio beat New Orleans by 9. Hou wins by 20.
San Antonio beat Atlanta by 15. Hou wins by 19.
San Antonio beat Indiana at home by 11. Hou wins by 18.
San Antonio beats Dal by 3. Hou wins by 15

[Allanon]

I'm impressed by the TrailBlazers, that's a fine, fine team even without Oden. Next year, they're going to be a load to handle.

Lamarcus Aldridge, Outlaw, Webster and Roy can ball. I've never seen such a long, athletic team that can actually shoot. Usually atheletic teams are a bunch of dunkers that brick anywhere outside of 5 feet.

They're going to contend for years. They ain't going to win it all this year or next year. But in 2 years, they can easily be in the WCFinals.

You are not going to make anyone give a shit about scoring differential, a W is a W, Try getting 4 some year when it counts. Your Rockets are peaking just in time to keep them in the playoffs. How nice for them.
