5 Things to Rant About

Found February 01, 2009 on The On Deck Circle:
PLAYERS: Darius Miles
TEAMS: Portland Trail Blazers

1) I would sign Darius Why not? You sign him to a 10-day contract and play him in garbage time and all of a sudden the Portland Trailblazers don?t have cap space this summer. Is this a jerk move? Yes, but the NBA is a cutthroat competition so why wouldn?t you cut your competitions throat ...

  • Joemak- are you flippin serious? Get your facts straight before embarrassing yourself with a stupid post. The Blazers have Raef LaFrentz's contract expiring- which gives them plenty of cap space AND insurance pays 80% of that contract since he's hurt. It's called a "super-expiring contract". As for the the D-Mile's deal, Portland could care less and would've paid him to just leave. There is so much more to this story that it's worth explaining. Go do some research... Portland is in great shape WITH cap room.

Blazers 97, Hornets 89 Re-Thoughts

Via Rip City Project  |  February 03, 2009
What a comeback. What a win.I'm having trouble trying to find the words to describe this one. I'm having trouble containing my excitement right about now. I guess this is how teenage girls feel after a Justin Timberlake concert. I didn't think it could get much more fun than that 3rd quarter ...
