Blazers Set To Lose Tonight

The Detroit Pistons will bring the Blazers back down to earth, as I predict a Blazers loss.

Blazers Continue Winning Streak

Blazerdamus proven wrong again! Amazingly, the Blazers defended their home court last night and defeated the Dallas Mavericks, 91-82. Brandon Roy had a big game, contributing 32 points and 7 assists, and the Blazers defense was especially effective again, holding reigning NBA MVP Dirk Nowitzki to 11 points. Nice work Blazers!

For those keeping score, the Blazers are now 3-3, and Blazerdamus is 4-2.

Blazers Win 2nd In A Row

As predicted the Blazers won their 2nd game of the season last night against the Memphis Grizzlies. LaMarcus Aldridge contributed 30 points and 10 boards, and Brandon Roy and Jarret Jack stepped it up in the 4th quarter for the Blazers to pull away. The defense was especially good late in the game, as Pau Gasol came away scoreless in the 2nd half.

Tonight they play host to the Dallas Mavericks, and unfortunately they will not be able to continue the winning streak. Still, the last two games have featured much better play from the youngsters.

Blazers 2nd Home Game Tonight

Tonight the Blazers face Pau (don't add the "l") Gasol and the Memphis Grizzlies, and I predict a winning streak will begin.

Blazers Win First Game!

Blazerdamus is proven wrong!

Blazerdamus's loss is Portland's gain, as the Blazers won their first game of the season, beating the New Orleans Hornets 93-90. Check out nba.com for a full recap of this exciting news.

Looks like I'm 3-1 now, and I've decided to post end-of-the-month charts to see how well I'm doing.

Blazers Home Opener Tonight

While the Rose Garden might be excited to see their new-look Blazers, the team will be unable to produce their first victory, falling to the New Orleans Hornets (again). Looks like the new motto "RISE WITH US" is starting to be prophetic--first they will blaze this new trail of awfulness, then they will have a chance to rise from those ashes. Too bad they aren't the Phoenix Suns...

Blazers Lose 3rd Game In Row

As I correctly predicted, the Blazers lost last night to the Houston Rockets. It was a pretty dismal performance early on, with Brandon Roy the only Blazer to produce any real positive numbers. The scoreline was a respectable 80-89, but they were outclassed by the teamwork of the veteran Houston superstars.

Next up is the home opener against the New Orleans Hornets. Check back to see if and when they will win their first game.
