    Pretty sweet win. That Dallas win gave us a ton of momentum.

    Playing the worst team in the league had far more to do with it.

    Again, no let down. If we smack down Philly Saturday - we're good.

    Just as I thought, the Blazers had a let down against the Cavs and was out scored 25-22 in the 4th.

    I blame Nate. Also, Chris Johnson is not as good as Sheed.

    I'll give a short run down of each player, and I'll try to order by importance.

    Brandon Roy: aging 3 time allstar, had doulbe knee surgery, not quite the same anymore

    LaMarcus Aldridge: 3 seasons as a soft PF, this year transformed into a snubbed Allstar calibur banger

    Andre Miller: aging assist leader. well rounded glue guy

    Marcus Camby: Aging Center, block monster, and defensive specialist

    Gerald Wallace: Recent trade, 1 time all star, multiple defensive honors. Still adjusting, will be great when he fits in.

    Wesley Matthews: 2nd year player, defensive specialist, bursts of offense

    Nicolas Batum: defensive specialist, young streaky shooter

    Rudy Fernandez: reformed Emo spandiard, becoming more consistent on both ends of the court

    Patty Mills: very mediocre back up PG, LOTS of energy on and off the court. Some say he turned around the Emo side of Rudy to being positive.

    Greg Oden: injured number 1 draft. Played a total of 1 season, in 3.5 seasons worth of being a Blazer.

    Ya, it would be so sweet if Oden is healthy all year next year and the this team is healthy all year. That would be special.

    I'd settle for 20 minutes a game of Oden if it kept him healthy for an entire season. But I don't think it works like that (sigh).

    With the lockout coming up I think we will be injury free next year.

    Sounds like a pretty solid the Blazers have, better than the Pistons. They road the Billiups, Rip, Rasheed, Big Ben, Prince train a little to long. They never prepared for the future and now that the team is so old they just blow now. The only really good player I guess the Pistons have now is Ben Gordon. I loled when they got T-Mac, I was telling my friend yeah that would of helped the Pistons if it was 2002 again. lol, I will have to watch the game for sure, I think it will start here at 9 PM for us in the EST time zone.
