HoopsAddict.com — ... Jamaal Magloire having a big game with 15 boards and 2 blocks, the Raptors “glut” at power forward, the importance of Toronto's role players, Toronto and Portland both having a record of 12-15 yet Toronto has a shot at the playoffs while the Blazers are probably out of luck because they play in the Western Conference, the emergence of rookie Brandon Roy with 16 points, 10 boards and 8 dimes off the bench, the search for a nickname for Sergio Rodriguez.

Game Thread #26: Phoenix Suns vs Portland Trailblazers
Bright Side Of The Sun — I know I'm really late in posting this today.  Call it Christmas-hangover.  Tonight's game should be interesting because the Phoenix Suns players are ticked that they lost to the Wizards on Friday night.  Now they're all rested and they should be taking out their frustration on the Trailblazers. Even the Blazers SBN blogger, Dave, thinks the same thing.  I think the Suns will win the game 122-97. Merry Christmas!  I'll definitely post more after the game and in future games.

Game 31 - vs Portland
Sactown Royalty — Busy weekend, so I'm going to send you to Blazers Edge for all the Portland insight I couldn't give you anyways. I doubt we'll see Justin Williams tonight, though that's the most exciting part of Kings v. Blazers anyone's going to get. This is a game the Kings should definitely win, so anything less is an abject failure. Enjoy the game! (I'll be watching it when I wake up in the morning.)

Game Thread: Phoenix Suns vs Portland Trailblazers
Bright Side Of The Sun — ... Hello Phoenix Suns fans!  Hope you're enjoying the arctic winter chill down there.  What is it, 68 degrees?  Sweater time, eh?  This is Dave from Blazersedge.com, a sister site to this very blog on SportsBlog Nation.  (No cracks about it being a weak sister site either...no fair kicking the Blazers while they're down.)  Dan has been kind enough to dispense some wisdom about tonight's game on Blazersedge (the gist of it:  DUCK!!!) so I'm returning the favor here.  It's not like you don't know that the Suns are going to win by 50 ...

Bullets Forever — I recently participated in a roundtable discussion on some of the key questions in the NBA at About.com.  Dennis Velasco asked the questions, and the following joined me as "experts" (the quotes are to characterize me more than anything).

Clips Nation — You may or may not be aware that Clips Nation is part of a larger community of Sports Blogs called SB Nation.  The NBA contingent of blogs is relatively small but includes several of the crown jewels of the basketball blogosphere - I'm a little shocked that Clips Nation is in any way associated with established and successful blogs like Blog-a-Bull, Golden State of Mind, Blazer's Edge and Sactown Royalty.  The primary goal of course is to build communities around individual teams, but hopefully there are some synergies to be ...

OPEN THREAD: Game #64- Warriors @ Blazers- GSoM Pride!
Golden State Of Mind — ... one more time then I'm going to puke. But guess what ... this is a must win situation! 1.5 games out of 8th place, sitting right behind the Kings, and tonight we play the Portland Trailblazers (formerly known as the Jail Blazers). We are pretty pathetic on the road and sometimes it makes me wish I could use profanity on this blog. But, if we don't take care of business against poor teams like the Blazers, then we really have no shot at the playoffs. What's even worse, our friends at BlazersEdge and I have a little wager for tonight's game. Nothing serious but if the Warriors ...

Golden State Of Mind — ... Clipper game is big. If they win, they go up 2 games on us. If they lose, they're down to just 1 game in front. That one game difference is huge with so few games remaining. Portland is still trying to develop their young core of players, Randolph, Roy, Aldridge, and Jack which could pose problems for the Warriors playoff chances.

If I had to guess, I'd say he's not going to get the same resounding support this year, but that's just a guess. To add some intelligent analysis to the conversation, we turn to Blazer blogger and super guy Dave of Blazer's Edge to give his two-cents on the enigma that is Martell Webster: Even a cursory look at Martell's play shows that his shooting form is still there but his confidence is not. He resembles one of those really pretty mylar balloons ...

Brandon Roy Can Do No Wrong
Indy Cornrows — Wow! Adding Greg Oden the current young talent on the Blazers sounds like a pretty sweet fit. Blazer fanatic, Henry Abbot, called the pick ealier today. Must've been his daughter's clothespin-and-paper-towel butterfly. The Supes deserved a break and getting Durant in the two spot should qualify. If Rashard Lewis wasn't officially on the trading block, he is now. UPDATE: Blazers Edge is celebrating appropriately.

Lottery Fallout
Bullets Forever — Whoops! Now that the draft order is settled, we could talk about the winners and the losers from the lottery, but that's now what we're here for.  Spence, over at DC Pro Sports Report argues that the lottery "couldn't have gone better" for the Wizards, and I'm inclined to agree.  Unless David Stern decides to take away the East's last two seeds and give them to the West.

Bright Side Of The Sun — There are several places that are live-blogging the draft tonight.  Golden State of Mind is one of them.  Blazer's Edge is another. The one I'm participating in is the ESPN live draft blog. The premise is each team blogger selected writes one sentence about who they would pick in their team's spot while their team is on the clock.  Then after the team selects a player, the blogger provides one sentence about the pick the team decided to do. It should be a lot of fun.  Check out the different sites if you're looking for info and blogger ...

Julian Wright: NBA Hopeful
Rock Chalk Talk — ... past couple weeks, he remains a viable Lottery candidate. I think that he will go at #10 to the Sacramento Kings, likely the highest he can reasonably be expected to be taken off the board. His Chicago connection could make him enticing to the Bulls at #9, but they took a similar player (if not better) in Tyrus Thomas last year with the 4th pick so it is unlikely they would draft Julian this year.

Greg Oden - Done for the Season
Golden State Of Mind — Only one wil play this season It's a sad day for not only Portland Trailblazer fans but for NBA fans. Greg Oden is officially done for the season and will have microfracture surgery on his knee. The #1 pick in the draft, the player the Trailblazers had pinned the future of their franchise on, will make his debut in 2008 rather than `07. I feel bad for the guys over at SB Nation site, Blazers Edge who have to endure it. Even one of my favorite sports writers, Bill Simmons, wrote on the topic, Blazers don't deserve Bowie ...

Blazers 111, Clippers 102: Observations
Blazers Blog — ... Martell Webster was incredible last night. After his second three-pointer, he started playing up the follow-through on the shot, and the ball kept dropping. Nate McMillan noted post-game that we've seen performances like this from Webster before, but that he still needs to put together good consecutive performances. That's about it. If you want more, you can check out Jason Quick , Mike Barrett , Anne Peterson , Kerry Eggers , Brian Hendrickson , and Blazer's Edge for more info from last night.

Bowen is fortunate that David Stern has taken such a strong stance against homicide. Thanks to Fashionable Male on Flickr for the pic.

Bogut started quickly but ended up only 6/16, so he'll need to be more efficient if the Bucks are going to win their third road game of the season. Fortunately for the Bucks the Blazers play at a snail's pace. As we saw most obviously against Golden State, the Bucks simply can't run and gun with teams. Check out Blazer's Edge for more on the Blazers. Dave has a pretty good read on the Bucks in his preview. ...

Here are some: "--On any given night only about half of these non-Roy/Aldridge guys are on offensively, but that's enough. Portland rides the hot hand until it cools. The best feature of the Blazer offense is ball movement. This is the least selfish team you've seen in decades, guaranteed. In fact they tend to break down quickly when there's a lot of one-on-one. 90% or more of Portland's shots are good looks. That's the key. --The Blazer defense is way better than the sum of its parts. None of these guys ...

Deceptively Quick — ... could be righted. Of course, it was never supposed to be so right in the first place. Maybe it is still on course. All we really know is that I’ve carried this crappy ship analogy too far. I hear the argument that missing the playoffs this season can help the long-term, nobody is mad at adding a lottery pick to Kevin Pritchard’s arsenal. I also hear the argument that early success and playoff experience would add significantly to the maturity of the team. I’ll leave that argument to Blazers Edge. Enjoy the ride.

Game #54 - Preview: Boston Celtics @ Portland Trailblazers
CelticsBlog — ... a team that won 13 in a row at one point and then 17 of 18, it is odd that Portland is only 3 games over .500. I think it is due to a combination of things. Brandon Roy missed some time, which is never a good thing. Add that to their inexperience, reliance on outside shots, the rest of the League figuring them out and the fact that they could not stay that hot forever, and perhaps it is not that surprising. Well it turns out that I was partly correct and Dave from Blazers Edge has a more in depth list . Still Portland can be a dangerous team, ...

The long and short of it is that 2.0 rocks.  Lots of features that you will grow to love.  The bad news is that you will have to reregister for the site--but this new login will work for all SBN sites.  Remember, it takes like 20 seconds, so I hope that everyone will reregister.  If you haven't seen 2.0 yet, check out some of my favorite SBN blogs like Blazer's Edge or ...

Danny Ainge's Roots [Trail Blazing]
Deadspin — ... Here's an interesting little tidbit found by Portland Trailblazers blog infantryman Benjamin Golliver at Blazers Edge. It's a couple of grafs taken from the 1991 book "Against The World", which followed the 1991 Blazers' quest for an NBA title. (The ghost of Jerome Kersey haunts us all.) ...

Great read on the NBA draft
Frank's Sports Opinion — Dave over at Blazer’s Edge has a great article …Weighing the Draft. One of the best things about this article is that his tips can actually be applied to other league drafts like the NFL or MLB. I’m a fan of mock draft’s, if for no other reason than it gives me more insight into the player’s coming into the league. Of course you have to filter out some of the b.s. your sure to find among them, but they do make for some great and lively discussions. In the spirit of this discussion (and to encourage more) ...

Darius Miles with Bobcats in spirit
Deceptively Quick — It really has been too long since last post. Call it a combination of "important" deadlines to meet and of having to endure so much Blazers pointguard talk that my immune system finally shut down in defense. If there were a Blazers blog emperor (Dave?), I would formally request this deity to order a week long stoppage on all Blazers pointguard speculation. Just long enough for us all to get a little sanity back. Naturally, I would sign this request with seppuku. ...

It's hard not to feel a little bad, until you remember the Dale Davis/Jermaine O'Neal trade. There were many more bombastic reactions, but my favorite was the fan who just said, "wtf, no Larry....no." NBA.com's initial Rookie Rankings. Oden is a "cautious" fourth. Meanwhile, ESPN and Scout Inc's David Thorpe has four Blazers in his Top-20 Rookies. Blazersedge has some good analysis of our picks and how they fit in. Bill Simmons' ...

There are players who have spots assured. They loaf. There are players who need their names on the back ...

Learning from the Experience of Others

So without further ado here is Dave's response. Memphis is going to experience the joys and trials of youth, that’s for sure. ...

Blazers Shut Down Chris Paul, still Lose. 87-82
Blaze of Love — ... when we needed him. David West was solid again.  Such a smooth player. No repeat performance from Rudy. Batum has officially looked his age. Brandon was also good in spurts, and sort of forced a late 3.  (We still love you.) Highlights for those of you who have a life on Friday nights: Oden's giant goal-tend blocked shot.  (Better footage when it's available.  Thanks anyway though Ben!) ...

Blog a Bull — ... over him the way we salivate over Rose.  Of course, he may have just been excited over getting to face the Bulls' interior defense tonight.  For better or worse, I have a feeling we'll be seeing a lot of Aaron Gray tonight.  Maybe he can go up to Joel Przybilla during a timeout and ask him how a stiff center manages to get a big contract. ...

Suns beat back Blazers: 102-92
Bright Side Of The Sun — Is it good defense or bad shooting? Early in the game the Suns defense was very active both inside and out. Amare especially came out on the defensive end and was great on the glass and on help D. He was solid manning up on Aldridge as well. That said, both teams shot poorly with Bell and Barnes firing bricks and the Blazers (other then Roy) just as cold. Blazers Edge * Box Score * Recap In the 3rd quarter, Blake came out firing and that seemed to wake the Suns up. It felt a little like the old days when the energy ...
