    Nine of our next 13 games are away from the Rose Garden, and we’ll really see what the team can do. In the next week, we face the Clippers (Away), Thunder (Away), and Lakers (Home). How do you think we will end this stretch? 7-6? 0-13? 13-0? Any other guess? I think we will end it 9-4. Here's the schedule so that you can judge for yourself.

     Sun 01  @ LA Clippers    6:30pm  CSNNWHD    
     Tue 03  @ Oklahoma City    5:00pm  CSNNWHD    
     Thu 05  vs LA Lakers  7:30pm      
     Fri 06  @ Phoenix    7:30pm  KGWHD    
     Sun 08  vs Cleveland  6:00pm  CSNNWHD    
     Tue 10  vs LA Clippers  7:00pm  CSNNWHD    
     Wed 11  vs Orlando  7:00pm  KGWHD    
     Fri 13  @ San Antonio    5:30pm  CSNNWHD    
     Sat 14  @ Houston    5:00pm  CSNNWHD    
     Mon 16  @ New Orleans    12:00pm  CSNNWHD    
     Wed 18  @ Atlanta    5:00pm  CSNNWHD    
     Fri 20  @ Toronto    4:00pm  CSNNWHD    
     Sat 21  @ Detroit    4:30pm  CSNNWHD  

    I would like to of made a poll out of this, But I couldn't find the option. Maybe a Moderator could edit my post with 4-5 likely options.

    I am going to say 10-3 over that streach is not a reach. With loses in OKC, ATL and one of the three LA games (clips twice lakes once). There are some soft teams in there too which will hopefully give our starters a bit of a rest (PHX, CLE, HOU, TOR, DET)

    I like to be optimistic but 10-3 seems a little too good for me but if we can do it that would be great! I'm thinking more 8-5 or 9-4 max!

    We also have not played great basketball so that's why I say that.

    0-1 so far, lost one of the ones i called. I would also like to make an ammendment and say that SA is going to be tough on the road so maybe 9-4

    My logic was. We split with Clippers, Lose to OKC, Lose to Atlanta, and lose one between San An or Orlando. Rest I feel we will win. If not there will be an upset somewhere and we may make up for it somewhere else. Or vise versa.

    Thats one of those upsets I was talking about. Now I hope we don't lose to a nobody team and lose that lead. However, I don't think OKC is overrated. I just think we are underrated. ;)

    Being that we've been on a 13-0 run before, i never doubt us.However that came at a full seasons pace. For some reason, skirmishes and scuffles bring us closer together. I like our chances on the road better than in previous seasons because we havent had so many fearless weapons on our squad at the same time in a while.

    2 years ago. Travis Outlaws game winner against Memphis was the catalyst. Or was it 12 wins ? One of the two im sure.

    Well we just got our loss to the Suns. I figured we would make up for the OKC game. If its one thing we need to learn it is how to capcapitalize on big wins.
