    Milsap and Horford. Another one of those duo's that work the inside as well as out that the Blazers have trouble with. We all know they got to watch Korver, Teague and Bazemore also. This should be a good game to watch.
    And All on National TV!
    Some people think the Blazers should have gone after Budenholzer instead of Stotts.

    Every team wishes they'd gone for coach Bud...to me he's the next Pops..he is the real deal...I'm still happy with Stotts though

    When they played us last season, PG Jeff Teague was as effective as a top-5 PG in the league. I was bowled over by the underrated Teague.

    Maybe we have a chance.

    I hate these late starts and long ESPN commercial breaks.

    But I love getting to watch the team I love!!

    GAH! Three more hours to tipoff!

    Shock the Hawks!

    In that picture Henderson looks like Kobe's brother. (No offense Gerald.)

    Can Crabbe get UHF? Damn. (No offense Allen.)

    Vonleh! So happy to see him hit his first shot, and the fact that it was a 3 makes it much sweeter

    It looked like Plums had jet boots there for that sky-high jam!

    Vonleh's post defense is already above average.

    There hasn't been a PF to successfully back him down. His base is über strong - and he's only 20.
