good points samdari.

I know how good Portland was last year. I thought they had a real chance to be something special this year. Tons of cap room, young stars, etc.

Then I watched their first two games. They don't look coherent at all. As you noted, they are playing selfishly. They had a horrible preseason. They've looked disinterested in two home games to open up the year.

I really, really don't like what I'm seeing out of them. If they don't get it together, I think they'll be 8-10 games worse than last year. (no, I'm not joking) Maybe OKC can't make up all of that ground, but they have a better constructed team in my opinion.

Maybe I'm judging too harshly after some preseson games and a couple regular season ones. The question I have though: If they look this poor at home, what makes you think they can go on the road and beat ANYONE right now?

We'll see if my doom and gloom is right. @Houston tomorrow, @OKC on Sunday.
