Great Exercises in Internet NBA-Related Postings
Hardwood Paroxysm —
... I torched Greg Oden on Twitter last night, and I should clarify. BE has a good rundown, Blazers Fans, in case you think I’m just hating. If everyone just says “Oden is going to rebound and be dominant on defense in terms of blocks and affecting shots, until he learns how to properly maintain his responsibilities (INBOUNDSPLAYSINBOUNDSPLAYSINBOUNDSPLAYS), I’d be fine with it.

And "hooray!" for Outlaw. Just wait until Thursday. And "booo!" for not finishing with Miller. And "eyes roll" at Houston for looking so bad.

... and Drew Gooden were just slightly out of position to receive an entry pass or challenge a shot. The team defense, the rebounding, and just about everything else was a step slow and a bit flat…and yet the Mavs were still within a stone’s throw of winning this game. Had Foye and Blatche not channeled their inner demi-gods, we could very well be celebrating one in the win column. The Mavs still have a lot of work to do, but they also have nothing but time." Blazers 96, Rockets 87 From Blazers Edge - "The team defense tonight roughly resembled what Nate McMillan promised at the ...
Game 2: Preview & Game Thread: Nuggets at Blazers (8:30pm MDT)
Denver Stiffs —
... Reading the great work done by Ben Golliver over at Blazers Edge it appears the Blazers are concentrating more on defense this season and did a great job rotating to the ball against the Rockets. Oden commented that he felt like he was part of an energetic and cohesive unit. The Nuggets must get out and run and get themselves some easy buckets to combat against this "newfound" Portland defense. ...
