    Plus the Blazers are making everything so not a lot of offensive rebounds to be had.

    Anyone else think Rudy was gonna dunk that pass from Miller? I wonder how bad his back is hurting him.

    To be fair, that last turnover wasn't his fault though. They didn't give him the ball when he had position.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Night and day indeed. I can't believe how confidently he's playing defense, without fouling. I was a bit worried he wouldn't be aggressive or assertive on defense, to avoid the foul problems of last season. But he's actively looking to block shots, alter shots and grab rebounds and he's doing it so smoothly and cleanly.

    I guess having one's full athleticism matters a bit! ;)

    I like how the second unit is attacking the rim. Those guys were wracking up the fouls on Houston.

    One of those should be on Outlaw. Oden was deep in the paint yelling for the ball with an auto-dunk and Outlaw couldn't get him the ball.

    Edit: Doh, I'm gonna quit responding to people cause I'm a second late and a sentence short.

    Mavs lost to Washington. Too early to scoreboard watch, with an eye toward seeding? ;)

    I believe that was his number in high school but Miles had it with Portland and you can only change your number every once in a while (three years?)
