Can't sleep and was thinking about doing this last week so here ya go. I'm a big fan of ProFootballWeekly.com and they have a bunch of "tidbits" about games that they share. I thought I'd pick a few facts/stats from some of the more interesting matchups. I either think they are telling of how the game is going to go, have fantasy value or are just interesting.

Wow what a game. It really could have gone either way.

Talk about the exact opposite of the LAL game. Instead of looking flat footed, they were going after EVERY loose ball like the game depended on it (and as it turned out, they all did). Roy looked like... well... ROY! Such a good decision maker, and I think he's going to only improve this season with the new weapons he's got around him. One of those weapons being Nic Batum. He had a HUGE mark on this win, now I see why Nate wanted to start this guy over Outlaw. Seemed like Outlaw was trying a little too hard. Almost looked like he was trying to keep pace with Nic, but everyone is going to have some off games. But he did get to the line and convert which was a huge edge for the Blazers.

If Brandon Roy was the conductor, L.A. was playing 1st fiddle. Not his usual shooting percentage but he made shots when he NEEDED to, which is a great sign. He seemed unfazed whether it was a miss or a make. Dude just wanted the ball.

Lots of other points to this game: Pop's beard is disgusting (not a bad look if you're on a deserted island), Roy vs. Roger Mason, Oden back in street clothes (staying positive though), Rudy can rebound, Frye looked energized (how about that dunk!), Parker/Duncan are maybe the best guard/big combo in the league, and oh yea... RIP CITY WAS ROCKING.

Finley should have made that last shot, but I'm glad we got treated instead of tricked tonight.

I really want that signed greg oden jersey!
