Portland has beat the hell out of horrible opposition this year. They have one win against a +500 team. (the 6-4 Rockets)
They continue to feast in the next few weeks. 10 of their first 22 games will be against the Wolves (3), Grizz (2), Hornets, Bobcats, Warriors, Nets, and Knicks.
We really won't know how good the Blazers are until a rough stretch in late December. They'll play the Suns at home, @Magic, @Heat (b2b), @Dallas, @Spurs (4th in 5 nights), home against the Nuggets.
I'll see how they play in that 6 game stretch and then decide how good they are. (yeah, I know they don't give a damn what I think, but I want to judge them against real teams before I call em a championship contender)
