Well this one will be much tougher to win, I will say I would prefer the early schedule be packed with tougher teams. Odds are this team will take a while to fully get on the same page as how Billups wants them to play.

So I would rather the early part of the season be packed with the tougher teams.

Suns played yesterday against the Lakers on a road back to back so that might help the Blazers.

Suns beat the Blazers like a drum last season. The watch to see when coach Billips will get his first win
as a head coach will likely continue.

Wuz hattenin' ya'll?? Really hope Dame 'n 'nem turn on the afterburners and get this win. What are the chances Dame comes out and gives 'em a 40-piece? CJ looked ready to go last game and I gotta think Nurk might wanna eat, too. Let's see Nance get more blow this game and show us something!

There will be caveats and excuses galore whether or not the Blazers come away with a win or not, but I'm packing the peace pipe and praying to Jah above...

Is it just me or does Zeller look like a high school science teacher?

Incredible first half, the team is playing about 5-6 times better against the Suns than they did against the Kings.

Gotta love what Powell is showing tonight.

Night and day from Game 1. Hate seeing Powell go down, but not totally upset to see Nassy getting a few more minutes potentially for the next few games.

That was quite possibly the most ridiculous foul call I've seen a Blazer get on that Booker foul on Zeller... that's some prime Blake Griffin acting.

This Blazer bench sucks. First game of the year I'm really watching with the scores on the other window... this team is barely 8 players deep. Yeesh.

Nice turnaround so far. This sort of game is why it's easy to see why many are excited about this team's potential. Hopefully Norm is OK.

Holy hell... I haven't seen 2 back to back (almost) successful fast breaks like that in ages from the Blazers.

Brandon-Clyde · Post #17 » by **Brandon-Clyde** » Sun Oct 24, 2021 3:44 am

Fun fact. CJ has hit more 3 pointers this game than Ben Simmons has in his career.

Brandon-Clyde · Post #18 » by **Brandon-Clyde** » Sun Oct 24, 2021 3:45 am

Nassir could be Gary Trent with better defense

monopoman · Post #19 » by **monopoman** » Sun Oct 24, 2021 3:45 am

Simons putting on a show, if this is a taste of what's to come this year he will be damn good.
