 Is Pierce Gonna Be A Daddy?
Is Pierce Gonna Be A Daddy?
I’m not usually one to partake in this kind of rumor… but what the hell. A bigger picture of Paul and girlfriend Julie Landrum has surfaced… and people are saying she’s sporting a baby bump. You judge for yourself. Man… this could be a great season for Paul. A kid and a ring. I like it.

First Impressions of the 2007 NBA Draft, Soon to be Renamed the "Paul Allen Buys Every Draft ...
Nothing lends itself more to overanalysis and wild hyperbole than the draft (any draft, not just the NBA's).

We'll take Jesus at the 3, and Jordan off the bench...
...Why not suggest Paul Allen try to sign Jesus to play the three and invest some of his billions to clone Michael Jordan to create some offense off the bench? Don't get me wrong, signing Chris Paul (if he doesn't get hurt, or go batshit crazy like Marbury) would be a good idea, a no-brainer even. But in reality the Blazers will already be paying max deals to Roy, Aldridge, Oden...
