Well, this shouldn't come as a shocker, but Portland Trail Blazers Basketball is once again (I guess always) is an enigma to me... Tonight game vs. the Sonics was a HUGE game FOR US TO LOSE as both Seattle and Portland had the same record going into this game. The loser will most likely end up with the 5th worst record in the NBA, and thus, have a better shot at getting Kevin Durant or Yi Jianlian from this coming draft. You figure with Portland playing without stars Zach Randolph, LaMarcus Aldridge, and even Brandon Roy tonight that this would be an automatic loss... But fucking Jarrett Jack, Travis Outlaw, and even the disappointing Martel Webster had to go off today and be superstars...
With this win, we are now a full game up on the Sonics and our lottery stock has dropped from 5th to possibly 9th at the end (We are now tied record-wise with the T-Wolves, Kings, and Knicks and half a game behind the Bobcats)!! WTF are we thinking?! Now Blazer Belivers (you are one if you know what's good for the future of the team and that right now is to get a higher draft pick), we have to hope to lose both are remaining games at Utah and vs. the Warriors, which is doable and must hope that the Sonics win one or both of their remaining games, which looks impossible being at the Lakers and then at Dallas (basically an automatic loss)... As in the words of Antonio Esfandiari... "ONE TIME"!!
As for next year, here are some tips for Nate McMillian (read the notes on Sergio Rodriquez and Travis Outlaw)
