    I think he went to Reynolds.
    In fact, I know he did. That's why I always call him "Neighbor" when I see him.

    You’re right. He grew up in Sandy.

    We’re elite and every other team is in our rear view. Your right about the parity it the NBA though.

    There are too many guards and not enough bigs. There just had to be a trade; it makes too much sense

    The Warriors really do seem to have some problems. The last time Curry played 70 games in a season was 7 years ago--is going to be able to pull it off this year at the age of 34? Jordan Poole kind of feels like an overpay at this point.

    It's funny how after the way Phoenix flamed out last year I've kind of written them off, but there they are with the best record in the West right now.

    I don't know if "parity" is the right word to use, though. I think things are just kind of murky right now--in another 15 games or so a couple of true contenders will emerge in the West. I didn't think Portland would be on that list, but a lot of things seem to be going our way right now. We'll see?

    Let's see what out record is after this road trip and then we should have a little better idea of this team has a legit shot of going deep in the playoffs.

    Nice start, but only 2 road games so far and a couple of conn flip games. One very good win (Denver) and one bad loss (Miami).

    I'm feeling that way too. It's a gut feeling that something special is brewing. Enjoy the ride, and hope for a more healthy team going forward.
