BLAZERSHEATEDGECOMMENTSteve Blake has been tremendous lately. Hitting threes, being very efficient at the point and overall; proving me wrong. Tonight he'll have the rookie Chalmers who is a great defender(9 steals against Philly) but he is yet to get going offensively. Look for Blake to ...

NBA All-Star voting began today, unfortunately it's paper ballots only so I'd assume there are millions of ballots floating around arena's as we speak. The NBA.com and wireless voting will begin Thursday and end January 19th. The best part? Brandon Roy, LaMarcus Aldridge...

Mike Barrett gave us an injury update today concerning the status of Brandon Roy and Greg Oden. Both are listed as "questionable" but Greg may be less questionable then Roy. Also, something very interesting: One interesting note, as far as what Nate McMillan is thinking,...

We're going to Disneyworld! Okay, probably just a hotel near Disneyworld. But the team has to be pumped about getting that first road win out of the way with the first game of the trip. Wheels took be through Howard's dominating first half, while Barrett and Rice took be through...

BLAZERSMAGIC EDGECOMMENTOn Saturday, one of the big things I noticed was Steve Blake missing his wide open jumpers. Isn't that basically what he's in there to do? Tonight he gets the smaller Jameer Nelson which should allow a few more opportunities for Blake to redeem himself...

On a night where expectations were extremely high, the Blazers were a let down for 3 quarters. I personally felt we needed to dominate a bad team but the Blazers apparently struggled mentally following the emotional win on Thursday. The first half was basically an atrocity until we finally ...

BLAZERST-WOLVESEDGECOMMENT Sebastian Telfair makes his triumphant return as a starter to the team that drafted him in 2004. He's still the ball handling, diming guy we remember but his ability to finish at the hoop hasn't improved too much. I think him and Blake will have decent...

Tomorrow night we get a chance to reflect on the Sebastian Telfair era as "Bassy" comes to Portland as a member of the TWolves. He got the start tonight against Sacramento, so he might actually get some significant minutes. I'm not sure how I really feel about Sebastian...

So apparently Sergio's agent wants a trade, everyone has heard about it but there is no real translation of the article from the Spanish newspaper Marca. But with the help of a friendly co-worker Silvia, and a few lost in translation items, here is what she uncovered: Sergio&...

You have got to be kidding me. What a game. That is the most ridiculous finish I've seen in a long time. I mean what can I say really, since halftime it just got so much better. LaMarcus established himself on offense and Travis had 14 points and 13 rebounds. But the hero tonight is Brandon ...

Some quick notes at half time. First off, Charles Barkley thinks our game is boring and also, it's a "barn burner." Which he cannot say for some reason. As far as the game goes, Travis is a man possessed, almost a double double already, 10 points 9 rebounds. Rudy is also...

BLAZERSROCKETSEDGECOMMENT Steve Blake must have read the shakedown yesterday, because he was very good last night scoring 16 points and shooting 50%. I think he is going to build on that solid performance tonight at home. Alston is a good defender but his offense is terrible. He is in there to ...

The Blazers came out with a serious commitment to playing aggressive and being physical with the Jazz. Early on they shot well, rebounded better than the Jazz and took a 7-point lead into halftime. But with a slow start to the 4th quarter and Jazz shooters heating up, the Blazers couldn...

BLAZERSJAZZEDGECOMMENTI'm really starting to lose my confidence in Blake as a point guard for the Blazers. He can't guard anyone, and he isn't doing anything to kickstart the offense. Price hasn't shot well so far, but he is doing his job on offense, getting the ball...

Early in the season Greg Oden was a favorite to lead all rookies for the Rookie of the Year. Things have changed rapidly for the Blazers, some bad (Oden's injury) some good (Rudy and Nic's emergence). David Thorpe has revised his rookie watch for the week and has Rudy at #1...

I've been an advocate all along, and Joe Freeman at the Oregonian is reporting that Batum will start Wednesday. Nic has shown us enough in the first 3 games of the season to solidify himself as a realistic option in the rotation. I said awhile ago that Batum should be starting...
