Blazers v NBA Finalists

3-3. Not bad, not bad at all! And it's really 4-2 but for the Turkoglu Miracle. 2-2 vs Denver and 0-2 vs Cleveland, but 1-1 vs Boston, who I think you have to include among the elite. 6-8 overall against the very best the league had to offer this year, 5-2 at home (almost 6-1). That's rising to the occasion!

One road win

Like Dave said in the podcast this week, we need more quality road wins before we are a contendor

That's our goal next year.

If we maintain our home court dominance and improve from below 50% road wins, well be shooting for the 60 win range. This is important for our growth.

yeah, but how many

road wins against these teams did the elites get? I mean, shouldn’t these teams have done better than (almost) 1-6 in the Rose Garden? Road wins against Charlotte, Atlanta, those kinds of team—that’s where we need to improve. .500 for the year against the best in the NBA is about all you should hope for, IMO.

Yeah

41-0 Home
20-0 Crappy Road teams
5-5 vs good/mediocre road teams
0-11 vs Good road teams

66 wins should get us home court advantage. Then we could lose every road playoff game and still win a title!
