It's really just awesome that he's playing at all but he's been getting steadily better every year it seems.

nuggs...

lawson has looked so amazing

ha so bizarrely this is probably my favorite blazers team of my adult life?

Kevin ware will play in the NBA

blazers color guy repeatedly referring to the nets as "Boston"

The Drexler-Porter-Kersey-Duckworth-era Blazers had a wicked fast break, but nothing will ever top the Blazers championship team and the run they had through the playoffs. This year's team does have a lot to like, though. We'll have to see how they look in April before I truly commit in my heart.

they're fun, well-coached, have a totally wild offensive system that seems to be working, the guys who need to play play d hard do it and the rest of the guys at least look like they're committed to not getting burnt, aldridge does his thing better than he ever has, lillard is a firecracker you have to root for, batum does everything, matthews and mo williams are hitting their shots, and they can play with a lead which the mcmillan teams couldn't ever quite crack. i just have a lot of fun watching these guys, which is a lot more than I can say for the turn-off that was the jail blazers era and the dull as paint dumb basketball of the mcmillan years.

but i mean, you're right, it's the middle of November. I'm optimistic, though!

portland looks cool, i hope they can keep it up and make the playoffs against someone besides the spurs

The new blazer coach, stott, isn't flashy but he has his shit together

Wow totally forgot that nate was fired

year and a half ago or so

Ah ok. Hope we can pull out of Vietnam soon, this wars been going in for far too long

yeah pdx is cool, i'm interested

IMO that Kevin Ware leg injury was like 1/100 as bad as Livingstons, altho just as gross looking. A clean break of a bone vs every ligament in a knee torn and his patella and tibia dislocated.

the nets shot 37% tonight and just looked like garbage whenever livingston wasn't on the floor which is a problem

guess they're just this year's lakers, pretty shocking

nuggets are 19/33 from the line, this is really getting old

Kidd and Shaw out by Christmas.

nuggs have won 4 in a row! it's not shaw's fault they can't shoot fts, same problem last year

Ha just fun to call for heads after like 2 weeks of hoops.

Marc Stein is looking ROUGH

corbin is definitely gone though

remember how awesome that nuggs/thunder series was a few seasons ago?

21/38

heard they gonna keep corbin for the tank...

but also got the that gordon hates him

got the feeel

viva Russell

the OKC announcers don't understand the goaltending rule

nutso finish in okc here

just tuned in, no sound tho, whats happened?

lawson tried to miss a FT on purpose, made it. nuggs fouled quick and ty got fouled again, missed one on purpose again, off collision out of bounds, now the nuggs have it with 2 secs left

TAKE A 3

nice, thx GO NUGZ

amazing. fire shaw

gross

haha, see! xp

Curry down

uh oh

laying down grimacing went to commercial. oh looks like he got his head smashed but marvin, probably a concussion

my bro (who hates ball) is at the game and just sent video of curry getting up and walking off the court with a towel on his head, he got huge ovation. people love that guy everywhere i guess

would like to point out i was otm about the blazers

I'm on record predicting 44-38 record for Portland.
