    The interior defense. Almost as if we could use a rim protector or something...

    Blazers should be embarrassed.

    OK, maybe I don't want to get rid of either that bad; one of their big salaries could be used to make a trade work. I just also have this gut feeling that whoever is left will be a better player once the other guy is gone.

    Can't wait. I like to listen to archived games at night with my MLB package... So I sort of have baseball all year round!

    TNT is openly rooting for LA. Even the stats guys are. They put up a graphic at one point that for the 3rd quarter the Lakers had 9 bench points and Blazers had 0 bench points. But the Blazers had all 5 starters out there and had yet to make a sub.

    Those Dame free throws are the first for either Dame or CJ tonight.
