    Joel more efficient than Oden tonight.

    Juwan Howard is a better backup than Outlaw, right?

    Do you want efficiency or results?

    9 blocks so far. If we can keep up this kind of control in the paint and improve perimeter defense just a bit...

    Joel is getting results. More offensive rebounds, less turnovers. Plus, he took a charge.

    Oden/Joel: best defense/rebound combo in the NBA. Is there a better one that I'm not thinking of?

    Looks to me like with a 20 point lead, the Blazers have the luxury of giving Oden a lot of rest and giving Joel more minutes than he's likely to get most games.

    Hell of a pass to Roy to try and end the 3rd quarter by Miller.

    How the hell did Oden get his 5th turnover?

    Yikes. I didn't realize Roy was struggling so bad from the floor tonight. I guess that smashes the "I play better with Blake" theory. ;)

    Why does Oden need rest? It's the first game of the season. He's what.. 22? Second season of his career. And he needs rest? Play him. That's the only way he'll get better.

    Because you have a big lead and a vet off the bench who's contributed to the team over the years who deserves some burn.
