How do you think the Portland Trail Blazers will do this year?

Question

Anything goes. Be rude. Be nice. Be whatever the h**l you want.

I just want an honest opinion.

Thanks to those who do so. =]

Answer 1

you know what i say 8th seed greg oden+Lamarcus aldridge+jerryd bayless+brandon roy+rudy fernandez=2011 champions

Answer 2

i think they will do well, so well i actually think they have a shot at the 5 seed

Answer 3

honestly i think they r deff a playoff contender. but at da same time da west is hard 2 get in 2 but maybe it will get better. but as 4 right now i say 42-40 team with 8th seed

Answer 4

here's my honest opinion: YES

1. Greg oden is not a bust, he played through college while being injured on the right arm. So yes he used left hand throughout the whole season as a freshmen while avging 15 ppg and 9 rpg.

2. Jerry Bayless, self-explanatory.

3. Brandon Roy, self explanatory.

4. LaMarcus Aldridge - a good decent jump shooter for a big man and a has a good form on that them hookshots he shoots. He still really young for a player to reach 17 points and 7 rebs.

5. the only rpoblem stadning in there way is that the players are too unexperienced for the playoffs.

- i hope this has hlped with your question

Answer 5

maybe next year because this year the whole team hasnt really been together so u dont know how their gonna work out together

Answer 6

2nd best team in the Northwest Division a possible 50-52 win season with a healthy and defensively dominating Oden, All Star Brandon Roy, solid impact from Lamarcus Aldridge. That duo of Aldridge and Oden could really become a strong power forward center combination. I also can see a great impact from Rudy Fernandez who was doing well in the European league. Took a pay cut to play in the NBA. The team has so much talent and potential. Their front office has done such a great job of drafting and getting rid of players like Zach Randolph. A lot of credit to a small market team like Portland who has a willing to win owner.

Answer 7

I really think they will be a top four team in the West. They are very young, but they are waaay too talented to miss the playoffs.

Just imagine this lineup.

PG- Bayless

SG- Roy

SF- Webster

PF- Aldridge

C- Oden

Bench

Fernandez

Outlaw

Blake

Frye

Pryzbilla

Great team in two or three years

Answer 8

They won 41 games last year, so I think they should improve on that.  I think 45-46 wins is realistic.  I'm not sure that will be enough to get them in the playoffs, but they should be in contention.

Answer 9

idk but why the f**k is hookline hittin on a cartoon?

Answer 10

no I think they will be garbage..I doubt they get over 30 wins

Answer 11

this year i think they will be one of the better teams in the nba. they have a young team, so i dont think there will be many injuries. brandon roy and greg oden will really mix well. also, i think lemarcus aldridge will have a great season too.

the one thing i think they're lacking this year is experience. the have a young team, wich is usually a good thing, but can also be a bad thing. oden is yet to play in a real nba game, but i think he will get used to it easily because he sat on the bench for the whole season and really got to see what it was like. plus, he played in summer league games.

over all, i think they will make it to the second round of the playoffs and then lose in game 6 or 7.

Answer 12

GREAT!!! they are stacked with the nba summer league mvp in bayless and the almighty greg oden, i expect them to be a playoff contender

Answer 13

I will say that they will make a low seed in the playoffs.  The teams in the west that is in danger of being on the outside looking in I think is either Denver or Phoenix.

Answer 14

Well Oden will def help portlands cause this year. I see no reason why the blazers wont make the playoffs this year. There's a changing of the guard in the west with dallas, phoenix and maybe the spurs slowly fading away. Its an exciting time to be a blazers fan.  

Answer 15

My honest opinion is that your avatar looks hot and I can only imagine what the real thing is like.

Answer 16

I really like how the Trail Blazers have been acquiring a lot of young players. The only problem is that the Trail Blazers are in the competitive Western Conference. I really do think that the Blazers might barely make the playoffs, but the Clippers, Warriors, and Blazers are competing for the remaining spots because I believe that the same players that were in the playoffs last year will make it this year except the Mavericks and Nuggets.

So it'll be Clippers, Warriors, and Blazers competing for those 2 spots.

Answer 17

either #5 or 6

Answer 18

NBA champs Wizards VS Trailblazers NBA finals

Answer 19

I say around .500 or a few games under it. As soon as they get a major G presence they will be a playoff contender in the West easily.

Answer 20

Honestly they can win 49-50 or more cause they got Oden back and they also got Bayless and both of those guys are upgrades

since the Denver,San Antonio and Dallas have gotten worse and old and can't play that good i see them in the 5-7 spot in the West

1)New Orleans

2)Houston

3)LAL

4)Utah

5)Phoenix

6)PORTLAND

7)San Antonio

8)Golden State  

Answer 21

What up Kaylee,

I think they will win about 50-53 games and will be a #5 or #6 seed in the West.  On paper they look great- but i think they need some time to let some chemistry develop. They do have so many young players however, that they can make a trade before the deadline and that can change a lot of things.  They are a young team that needs to keep their nucleus together to develop-- i really like their backcourt of:  Bayless and Roy and i like Martell Webster and Travis Outlaw.  They have a young athletic team that can run... should be exciting to watch.
