You can still believer harder and be realistic, it's not a crime to be realistic.

It is fair weather. I mean, only believing in a team when things are going well???

It's like no one believes in the Blazers when they're down 0-3. But come GAME 7, EVERYONE will be in here whupping it up and saying that we SHOULD win.

LMAO

All going according to plan so far.

Most teams don't win after going down 0-3.

But the Blazers aren't most teams.

GO BLAZERS

Speed, you're certifiable.

The world needs more characters like you, those who generate confidence from being wrong, rather than from being right.

I hope you never change. You're an Original.

But I still don't believe I'm a fair-weather fan. A fair-weather fan is one who stops supporting his team when things are bad. I haven't stopped supporting the team.

If you won't believe in them until they've already dug out of the hole, then YES you are a fair weather fan.

Out of curiosity, Speed...do you think the Blazers will win the next ten straight championships? Not whether you think they can...do you think they will, would you bet a lot of money on it?

Real question, please answer, thanks.

Sure looked like it today. Let's hope we can say it at least three more times.

I see your point.

There is a difference between that, though, and people who rooted for Dallas and said they wouldn't watch.

I like your optimism a lot. However, you probably don't have to be so confrontational about it. Everyone should be able to enjoy sports at whatever speed (no pun intended) they like.

That's the beauty of sports-watching or any hobby...it should be entirely up to each person how much it matters to them or how they enjoy it.

Enjoy the night, though.

4-3 Blazers!

my my..much to do about...something...my 2 cents is yes, the Blazers have every reason to think they can still win this series. This situation is very much what Blazer basketball is made of. The situation could not be more dire..more overwhelming...that is when I have seen the Blazers pull off miracles.

It makes no matter who suits up or who doesn't-the Blazers have proven that as well.

Here's to a modern day miracle! I'm with you Portland-go all the way!

What a story it will be!

GO BLAZERS!

PS: Wear the red unis!

Qyntel Woods Tonight?

With Ruben Patterson out, we will have no choice but to give Qyntel Woods important minutes tonight.

This could be a defining moment in his career.

Nick Van Exel and his Stupid Law of Averages

Nick Van Exel said the Law of Averages means that Finley and Nash will have HUGE games tonight.

Does Nick Van Exel also realize that the Law of Averages also means that Dirk Nowitzki will score NOTHING Tonight? Dirk only scored 22 ppg in the reg season. The Law of Averages says that Dirk gets the goose egg tonight. The Law of Averages also says that Dirk misses his next 10 three pointers to get his three point shooting % down to his average. The Law of Averages also says that the Blazers will win their next 2 road games since they were a winning ball club on the road this year.

Yeah, that's right Nick, we're LOVING that Law of Averages out here in Portland.

Go Blazers
