    They are saving work. When the Blazers play them in the Finals they won't have to scout one of their players.

    I wonder what the Nuggets' forum looks like tonight after the Celtics smacked them. Are they calling for Malone's head yet?

    2011 and up are awful, but 2009-2010 were pretty good picks. Kings culture probably turned them for the worse, as it would have with any of the other better pics in subsequent drafts, but Tyreke and Demarcus were star-level players for a while.

    It's a well known fact the refs hate players from Oakland.

    Ah, so it’s ethnic, not racial.

    Can the Blazers Front Office say this... we will pursue a superstar on Free Agency?

    Not with our current cap situation, that’s for sure.

    First loss since they acquired Gordon. 7-1. Guessing that gets him some slack.

    Watching the Warriors moved the bal... I’m so jealous. Wish we have a Draymond Green Point Forward to get Dame some open looks

    I like the Denver announcers. They are homers but will also say stuff about their own team like; "You play soft for a couple games; you get what you deserve!"

    The way we’re playing, I’d much rather root for the Warriors to lose. They are only 6 games behind us in the loss column for 10th place. Looking at the schedule, there are only 3 games that I would expect a definite win: @Charlotte, @Cleveland and vs. Houston.
