There is a reason why Coach K chose Nate to assist with the USA team people. There is also a reason why every USA player has glowed in regards to Coach Nate. Given what the players he's had to work with and integrate in and out of the system, changes he's had to make constantly mid-season, I think ...

DJ Augustine? Gerald Wallace, and Tyrus Thomas. I feel like there is a lot of mortgaging social values in that deal not to mention Gerald Wallace has had plenty of durability issues in his time as well. It just seems like a bad move. No doubt there is talent there, but the Jailblazers are to recent...

@darlucas: My prayers are with you, your uncle, and the rest of your family. I myself have an uncle in his final days with cancer, this will be the second year in a row I have lost an uncle during the holidays. It completely changes a family dynamic when something this tragic happens. Your uncle ha...

I don't place expectations on the pre-season other than I expect them to work through their mistakes and learn from them. This is a great opportunity for the players that we will never see on the court to maybe make another NBA roster. We all know Miami has bench spots open. I am disappointed that ...

But there's no such thing as a Trail Cat. Besides, it would be classic. Hill and Blaze could do a whole Cluseau Vs. Pink Panther/Wylie Cyote Vs. Road Runner routine! It would be great entertainment! :-)

Am I missing something? I only counted three current Blazers. Khryapa hasn't been a blazer for a while we traded him. It does tell me a lot that Freeland, Koponen, and Claver aren't in the top 50.

I seem to remember a similar situation a few years ago when we had a jam at the PG and SF spot. Jeff McGinnis and Damon were the two main PG's vying for time but we had four deep. Realistically though, we really don't have 4 true PG's. Again, Bayless is really still an undersized SG until he develo...

Thanks for posting the box score and highlight. I like seeing Nico driving to the hoop. He didn't do much of that during the qualifiers, but it will do nothing but help his value to this team if he adds that to his pool. Sick dunk. Nico definitely got the better end of this one. I'm starting to for...

Yeah, I am betting they would want Miller for sure and probably a guy with a lot of promise like a Bayless. They'll want to try and pull a Miami in the next FA market.

So, IF Rudy does get traded, does Nic change his number to 5? That's the number he wears for France.
