Outsider Impressions

Silk Wilkes · Post #1 » by **Silk Wilkes** » Thu Mar 13, 2008 11:24 pm

What is your general feeling when you go up against different teams in the league. Do not base anything on their fans, just the team. Do you guarantee a win or is it a loss even before the game is played. Feel free to repeat if you have a different opinion than one of your fellow fans.

1. Atlanta- Tough game, but a win.
2. Boston- Really tough game, might win but will probably lose.
3. Charlotte- Lots of talent but my team wins.
4. Cleveland- Easy win if LeBron doesn't go off.
5. Chicago- Win.
6. Detroit- Loss.
7. Denver- 50/50 sometimes they play great and sometimes they get blown out
8. Dallas- We've lost big leads against them but we can beat them any time.
9. Golden St.- Another 50/50, depends on who's hotter.
10. Houston- Should beat them but they're always a chance for a letdown.
11. Indiana- Win.
12. Clippers- Win.
13. Lakers- Loss.
14. Memphis- Win.
15. Miami- Win.
16. Milwaukee- Win.
17. Minnesota- Win.
18. New Jersey- Win.
19. New Orleans- Can beat them on any given night but they probably have a better chance of beating us if they're healthy.
20. New York- Win.
21. Orlando- Another 50/50. I think that we can beat them on any given night.
22. Philadelphia- Win BUT they play very hard and it's great to see. They can beat us if we don't show up.
23. Phoenix- Loss.
24. Portland- Win, they were playing well and then hit a wall.
25. Sacramento- Very iffy, lots of talent but we should beat them.
26. San Antonio- Surprisingly 50/50 for me. I think we can beat them if we decide to show up.
27. Seattle- Win.
28. Toronto- My team.
29. Washington- Fifth 50/50. Usually a great game. Fun to watch. Not chalked up as a win or a loss.
30. Utah- Loss.

P.S. Do not take anything personally, it's just other people's opinions. Also, do not retaliate to anyone's post, just post what you would think if you were the first poster.

I'm a Cavs fan. Teams that I never expect to beat.

Milwaukee(seriously)
Denver
New Orleans
Houston

Teams that I always expect to beat

Lakers(LeBron attacks whole game, no one on Lakers can stop him)
Toronto(Hecklers)
Washington(except tonight)
