    Pretty cool and an impressive list of coaches that he's played for. I don't think he got along great with all of them though.

    No, that is Shawn Kemp or Antonio Cromartie trying to remember all the names of their kids.

    Portland really gets fucked on the travel situation every year because of where we are. To bad no analyst will ever be bring it up because its a huge can of warms that wont be opened up for a small market.

    An easy fix is to put Portland/Sacto/GS/LAC/LAL in the same division, put PHX in the Southwest, and move Memphis switch Memphis to the Eastern Conference for Milwaukee. As it is now, it only means a 4 game difference, but those 4 games staying in the same time zone would help with the ridiculous back-to-backs where the Blazers have to fly 1500 miles.

    I find it even more messed up that their longest road trip coincided with the all star break. I understand scheduling is a bitch of a job, but that's just stupid.

    Dirk just broke the Knicks hearts. Classic meltdown by the Knicks who failed to get a shot off in their last possession. How is Woodson still employed?

    JR Smith got hammered by Ellis, though. Should have been a foul, with Smith shooting 2 shots.

    The only reason NY had a chance to even win this game was Melo. They were way down at many different points in this game. I wouldn't call it a meltdown at all. The didn't deserve to win the game.

    They just gave up 130 to the Bucks.

    THE BUCKS.

    It doesn't matter who they are playing, its most likely a L.
