Are you ready? There are fewer days until the Portland Trail Blazers play their next game (74 days) than when they played their last (92, when they were knocked out of the playoffs by the Warriors on May 11), so it's time to get back into basketball mode and mentally prepare. The Blazers just announced the schedule for the 2016-17 season, and it looks like a fun one.

The Blazers open with two straight home games, first against the Utah Jazz on Tuesday, Oct. 25, and then against the Los Angeles Clippers two days later. After a road game against the Denver Nuggets, the Blazers host the Steph Curry's Golden State Warriors, the reigning Western Conference champs who should be unfairly good this year with the addition of superstar Kevin Durant. That will be a great game to go to. Perusing the schedule, you should mark down the home game against Lebron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers on Jan 11.
