They now drop to 21-20 since starting the year 22-4.

This team will be gone in 6 games in round 1

You were really on the Blazers bandwagon the first 2 months...now its they are over-rated???


I never thought they were a contender.


They have ZERO DEPTH. You cannot play 82 games with 5 players.


Once the season kicked in, those 5 players start getting hurt and weary eventually.


They might win a playoff series, but you cannot win a title with absolutely NO BENCH.

Wrong choice of words. The word you are looking for is "overachieve". As in, "The Blazers have overachieved this season".

I'll be shocked if they win a series to be honest with you. It is very possible that they fall to the 6th seed

Welcome to the wild west
Neither San Antonio nor OKC is even assured of a top seed.

At this point, Portland could conceivably miss the playoffs entirely.
The seeding is crazy.


Heck the Spurs won 10 straight games and still cannot pull away from the Clippers.
10 wins in a row....zero separation....crazy...

Mo Williams is solid on the bench other than that....

I think they somewhat overachieved at the start if the season anyway, I don't think they could make it past the second round at best.

Would you rather play Portland, Memphis or Dallas? I think most teams would want Portland

People want Portland cause of the bad defense they play. I think Portland is a rich mans Dallas mavs

I hope Portland doesn't miss the playoffs. I'm planning on driving down there to catch a couple playoff games this year. Haven't been to a playoff basketball game since Ray and Rashard were still here
