Honestly they are going to announce it tomorrow. Nate has been calling all of the Western Conference coaches and he is pretty sure he said that Brandon will be an All Star and that those coaches will be voting for him. I just heard Jason Quick on 1080 the fan. Jason Quick is the beat writer for the   more...

BURN, BURN it all DOWN! What a game, Lakers vs. Blazers! This time it was on our turf up in the Rose City. The Blazers are back running on 100% again. Everyone is back off the injured list.
