Blazers v. Hornets, Linkafication!

Blazer fans can still remember 3 years ago like it were 11 days ago. Portland, Ore - We didn't exactly know who Kevin Pritchard was, except that he was the Player Personel guy that had just stepped in as interim Head Coach for the fired Mo Cheeks. Nate McMillan was in his first year as Blazer coach. Sebastian Telfair had come thru the fire to lead us to the worst record in...

It's been a few weeks since the season has started and it's time to take our first look back at the top ten list of point guards. The following is the original list, in order, with notes on each particular player: 1. Chris Paul - New Orleans Hornets - 2008 Stats: 21.1 PPG, 11.6 APG - [...]

Maybe you saw it, maybe you didn't. Tonight something happened. Reminiscent of the Incredible Hulk or some other super hero who begins to find his powers, Greg began to find his. In only about 24 minutes, Greg managed to not only record his first ever double-double, but he added 4 blocks and an ...

Sure Robin Lopez could turn into a great NBA player but after waiting four years for the Suns to cash in the Atlanta pick it was quite anticlimactic. In a draft that touted such talent as OJ Mayo, Derrick Rose, Jerryd Bayless and others the Suns came away with a "defensive minded" player [...]

In Minnesota tonight, on the back end of 2 straight games on the road, the Blazers dug deep to pull off a win. We seemed a bit lethargic early on and the 2nd quarter was a disaster. Eventually the Timberwolves wound down and Roy took over late to seal the victory. Al Jefferson once again dominated us offensively and for some reason LA was not a factor. The best part? Oden and Przybilla...

The Suns will sign Illinois Alum Dee Brown to fill their 13th roster spot tomorrow, December 24th.? Brown was recently starting for the Wizards before being overlooked in a suddenly guard-heavy Wizards roster due to the acquisitions of Mike James and Javaris Crittendon via ?He?s got a ...

Rasheed hasn't played for the Portland Trail Blazers since 2004 when they dealt him to Atlanta, but by the way he goes at their ball club each time the Pistons visit the Rose City you'd think they threw him out of town the week before.He played great for them on great teams but had some [...]

BLAZERSHORNETSEDGECOMMENTChris Paul is going to be a huge problem for the Blazers tonight. Our defense has been a little suspect, but to think Blake can guard CP3 is insane. In order to win this game we have to let Paul score and not get his teammates involved, so either way, Steve will get ...

Last night I was fuming mad at the calls in the Hornets-Lakers game. I thought the refs blew not just particular calls, but that their entire method to calling the game was flawed. Now before we go any further, I want to make it clear that the Lakers beat us. End of [...]

If you believe in such things as an encouraging loss, last night may have been the definition.Not staying here long. This was the best loss I can remember in a while. I think I feel this way because the Blazers are 2-1 on this road trip, so it's almost like playing with house money. But just a ...

Senior captain Jason Fox praised freshman RB Mike James for the way he has performed throughout spring practices. See what Fox had to say about why James is a special player.

You remember David Wesley....former NBAer, longtime Hornet, one time speed racer (what, too soon?).I was flipping around on whatever day it was....with basketball, they all run into each other...and evidently Baylor was playing against someone in some tournament.....probably NIT (is the CBI even on television? is it black-listed from MSMer and the blogworld alike?).....and there...

Recently, Timberwolves players Marko Jaric and newly acquired Juwan Howard let it be known they are not happy with the youth movement in Minnesota. Howard, who was traded for Mike James earlier this summer, has asked to be traded before ever even suiting up for Minnesota since he believed that he...

Loaded with point guards, the Memphis Grizzlies decided to trade one away, according to reports.The Wizards will receive New Orleans' Mike James and Memphis' Javaris Crittenton in the exchange, with the Hornets acquiring Washington's Antonio Daniels and the Grizzlies coming away with a future ...

With 3:50 left in the third, Bonzi Wells is coming in for Chuck Hayes, who has done a tremendous job defensively on Emeka Okafor and Gerald Wallace. The Rockets are within one, 55-54. It's time for Wells and Mike James...
