Yeah, they've hit a mental/physical wall, but playing above .500 was the third youngest team to suit up is quite impressive on it's own merits.

Two or three years with Roy/Aldridge/Oden/Outlaw/Webster with Blake/Jones/Pryzbilla/Jack/Sergio as backup? Fuck yeah.

Though I wouldn't be surprised to see Jack or Sergio go.

Tonights game was pretty close. They lost composure when Brandon Roy had his lip busted open, but no foul called. Led to a three on the other side when he didn't run down (because of blood, not complaints).

You could see everyone getting frustrated. Young team is young.

The only reason I give a shit about the Blazers these days is cause I work at the Rose Garden Arena and I get to see the games for free. But seriously, the Blazers are definitly the only good thing Portland has sports wise. Dont get me started on the fucking hockey team...

What about the JAX man. :[

I'm excited for them. I hope they get back on track and finish above .500, though.

Not having James Jones hurts.

I really think from Roy's demeanor and attitude, so far, that he'll stay.

There is really too much potential after they get Oden. They will be a dominant team pretty quick, especially if they win 42, when people said maybe 30.

At very least they'll be exciting. Oden looks to be technically healthy enough to play by the end of this year, but he definitely won't.

Agreed.

I think it's no coincidence when Jones is out they struggle, though. Also being able to sub Pryz for Oden will be awesome.

in 2 years not counting this year. spurs will get to old, suns will get too old, t-mac finally break his back, the mavs will be back to the way they use to be, cause jason kidd is old as fuck.

so in 2 years the contenders for the west will probably be in no particular order.

Blazers
Jazz
Warriors (IF THEY CAN PLAY SOME FUCKING DEFENSE)
Lakers
Nuggets
