Tonight's game is against the Utah Jazz. I'll be wearing a biohazard suit in case I run into Paul Millsap's contract. Tip is at 7PM in the Rose Garden. There is no local TV. Radio on 95.5 FM. I heard the game might be televised in Utah so maybe Justin's internet television will come through tonight. Cross your fingers.
Nate's starting lineup (according to Casey) tonight is a familiar one: Blake, Roy, Batum, Aldridge, Przybilla. Oden remains out with his thigh injury.
According to Brian T. Smith, Nate says he plans to treat tonight's game as a regular season contest.
Put 2 and 2 together and Andre Miller is probably hanging a Rodney Dangerfield poster in his locker right now.
Catch you post-game.

as they say in the bronx (probably, i have no idea), foist.
go blazers.
best introduction ever (in my head): “Starting at Power Forward, out of Texas, with a new contract in hand, LaMarcus Aldridge!”
Oden=2009 ROY

I could still see
Miller starting, just maybe not today. Blake hasn’t been good in the preseason I dont know why you wouldnt start miller.
I hope I can get a bunch of championships, like 15. " - Greg Oden

Nate changing the starting lineup at the last second is the only thing he does that bugs me.
I’m still annoyed at his last-second swap of Travis for Nic in game 1 last season. It’s not like that game would have gone any worse with Nic in there.

I remeber reading today that
McMillan was letting the players decide who starts and that he thinks they know who should start. If that’s the case Dre should be starting. Maybe he just wants to give the old lineup one more shot before the regular season.

I dont think he really meant he is letting them decide, i think he meant that their playing and contribution will decide, but yes i still think that means miller. I dont see how he could say that and mean blake. Unless blake is just playing out of his mind in practices but sucking in games.

I think outside the 150 mile radius must infringe on the NBA League Pass piece o' the pie

also a link on league pass broadband to enter your info and get it fixed. (look on the right column and click: What information does NBA need to investigate my blackout situation, and how do I get it to them?)

It's a fine line.
If Brandon said he wanted Nate to start Bayless, Outlaw, Cunningham and Howard, Nate would push back.
If Brandon said he wanted Nate to start Miller, Batum, LMA and Greg, Nate probably wouldn’t.
So the key is, where is the line where Nate starts pushing back? Right now, there’s a set of fans who feel it’s a different line location than Nate does.
I think Brandon’s doing what he thinks will place the team in the best position to win. Nate must agree (or feel it’s not important enough to make waves), or else he’d do something different.
But again, whenever you say “talk to Brandon about it”… it’s really not Brandon you need to talk to, it’s Nate. He’s the one who signs off on that starting lineup.
Until (if!) we hear about Brandon working on removing Nate because he’s not doing what Brandon wants, these decisions fall squarely on the coach.

MJ lobbied
for Joe Wolff over Scottie Pippen in the draft, and we’ve all seen what he’s done as a GM. Great players don’t always make great talent evaluators – it’s on the coaches/front office to make these decisions and work with the star. Not easy by any stretch, but that’s the job.

Well . . .
As a 35 year Blazermaniac and a loooong time player/coach, I
guess I could be called “Old School”. My dad taught us one thing
about sports, “Hustle” ! I guess I’ve always applied that philosophy
to mean, work hard & give 100 % effort whether you are a starter or
a bench warmer. My teams always knew that practice would be hard
and full of drills designed to make them a better player and the games
would be where they could show their skills and in doing so would have
fun ! That’s why “Hoosiers” has always been one of my favorite movies.

I remember when Rick Adleman was a player… not a coach… for our Blazers. I’m definately old school also and the reality is that as long as the guys the Blazers put on the floor give it their very best effort I’ll support them without question… As crazy as it probably sounds I’d rather watch this bunch of quality, high character guys go 41-41 then watch Rasheed and Rueben and Bonzi Wells win 60 games.
And, yeah Hoosiers is a classic… Take Care and…

they just aren't very creative, they are chasing a story that isn't there. However Greg still is a very polarizing figure
because he was the first pick, and compared to durant he hasn’t had as quick a rise to prominence. This is a great time for greg to show everybody that he is a beast. Now that the expectations have died down, and he has had a chance to get his feet wet, and reflect, he is in a much better situation to have a breakout season.

I've always been curious about it.
It’s mainly sausage bound cuts of meat mixed with grains and seasoning? I think I’d try it. Maybe next time I’m back that way…

yeah I think it's because he really didn't have any competition at the position, and he rose up to a level of competence.
Blake is very servicable but he is not as aggressive as miller. My feeling is once the team gets used to playing with miller’s style, then Bayless becomes a backup player more in miller’s style- a slashing driving guard. Blake’s got the outside shot, but if he’s missing it, then maybe there isn’t a big upside for him over miller. I’m not trying to crack on the guy, I like him and I think he is an excellent team mate, but I don’t think he creates as much as Miller.

I get your point, and agree with it, but
it is factually incorrect. We all know Oden SHOULD be the starter, and indeed he is missing. But he isn’t the starter, and thus we are only factually missing 1 starter tonight.

much of this is due to Roy and Aldridge, who have proven track records of being good performers. I’m not worried about them.

Even if the Blazers don't get on track until, say, January, I think they'll be playing at a very high level by the end of the season.
They should make the playoffs even if they don’t get any homecourt advantage, but should be able to beat good teams on the road by then.

by jksnake99 on Oct 20, 2009 7:37 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs
I don't believe in his ability to manage this talented roster.
The treatment of his players has been confusing. To name starters then change them, talk about competition and then squash it the moment it presents itself and generally creating a complete lack of trust in what he says.
Plus, he’s failed to create a working defensive system. I’m aware it requires player effort but I believe another coach would have been able to get some semblance of defense out of an athletic roster like this one for at least a small stretch. Of course, I can’t prove this, it’s just a hunch.
We are 6 days away from the regular season and this team still doesn’t know what it’s doing. They’ve been together for over a month, I’ve seen entirely new rosters come together quicker.
The man’s a good coach but as has been highlighted before, I’m worried about his ability to adapt to change.
