5-1 In any individual game, I would predict a win, but I think there is a good chance that we have a let-down somewhere along the way. I think we really need to win at least 4, or I will be slightly worried

Houston: Win, T-Mac's still hurting, should come off the bench. Don't see anyone really steping up for the Rockets. Portland fans will really help the Blazers rebound from the loss today.

Atlanta: Win, I think the Hawks will want revenge, and JJ will score big for the ATL, but Portland digs it out.

Cleveland: Loss, King James will be big this game. We have no defensive presense at SF. Brandon can't take him, too much strength.

New York: Win, haha, one of the funnest games of the season for me to watch. C'mon Isiah, play Z-Bo the whole game. Zach's gonna get 40-20, LeMarcus(so fun to say out loud) 20-10, Brandon triple double.

Denver: Big divsion win separating us from them even more. No 'Melo, no Nene. A.I. will probably put up 40-ish points, but we'll be alright.

Chicago: Win, they're playing better as of late, but unlike the 1st game between the 2, we have homecourt advantage. And if you didn't get the memo, our fans are the best.

Personally I think we only lose Denver. I think we're a better team than Cleveland.

Good chance for going perfect this coming home stand, but I am gonna go with d-train on this one, even as shocking as it is for me to ever agree with him and say 4-2.

2-4. Blazer's confidence is broken by New Orleans, and manage to win only twice, blowing 15 point leads in games 3, 4 and 6 of the homestand.

I think 4-2. The New York game has me scared for some reason, and I could see a loss to Denver.

But i'm praying for 6-0 which isn't out of the question at all IMO. :pray:

It's one of the easiest stretches of our schedule and I fully expect the Blazers to take advantage of it. I predict 5-1.

5-1. Not for sure who the loss is to, but think we have a great shot at winning all six. Things happen, so I am playing it safe.

Houston barely got by Seattle tonight. I fully expect to wax the floor with them.

Atlanta should play tough, but think we beat them with our outside shooting.

Cleveland should be good and will be a huge test in defending Lebron. Still put us as the favorite.

Will be at the NY game to lead the "Fire Zeke" chants. Always for kicking a NY team while they are down.

Hope that Carmelo is still out when we play them. Would not be surprised to see more Nuggets injured in this one.

Chicago has not been stellar and see no reason for them to step up here.

Playoff race is getting tighter and we need to win five out of the six.

4-2 seems likely with losses to Cleveland and Denver.

4-2 if they lose to Houston. And the first home game after a long road trip is often a loss, even for veteran teams, so I'm expecting a real flat game for Portland friday.

5-1 if they beat Houston.

5-1. Wanted to say 6-0 but played it safe. My guess is the loss doesn't come from a usual suspect.

the blazers had a rough time with this road trip and it's good to have a 6 home games to get the confidence high again and to get the players back on a roll.

i will say 6-0 or 5-1, with being the denver who beats them.

rockets: they struggle too much, and without tmac they could be predictable.

atlanta: the blazers had a tough time beating them and they want revenge, but at home the blazers should show advantage.

cleveland: lebron james is good, but not that good to take on the blazers by himself.

denver: it could all depend in if melo plays or not.

ny: they are the knicks. it should be interesting to see how the fans react to zach and viceversa.

bulls: aren't deng and gordon out indeffinetly?
