Gameday Open Thread: Rockets vs. Blazers--Pregame Edition

Here's the first official Gameday Thread of the 2009-10 regular season!  Here's how these work:

  • Feel free to chat here about the game.  Please keep your topics game-related as much as possible.
  • No swearing or disguised swearing even if the refs suck and the opponent hits a miracle buzzer-beater.
  • No pictures or anything else that would slow down the thread!
  • A new thread will open up at 7:00 and approximately every half hour thereafter, up to and including a post-game reaction thread.  Migrate along with the opening threads.
  • If your reponse time becomes sluggish, try turning off auto-refreshing comments.  Go to "Edit Settings" in the top, left-hand section of your front page and then switch "Live update comment threads..." to "No".   You'll have to hit refresh manually to see updated comments.

Enjoy the conversation!

Which means that it’s really 10:25, which means that the game will be over at 1:00 AM, and it will take a while for the adrenaline to calm down enough for me to sleep.

Food: either very very good, or gnarly gross (corn and banana on pizza, egg in everything, undercooked bacon)
Thing I miss: Portland Trail Blazers, Portland music scene, NYC cultural opportunities, Virgin Islands beautiful clear ocean waters

HK is a very international city and there is a little of everything here. But really, it’s a city split in two. there’s the Chinese, and everyone else. they intermingle a lot, of course, but there are some VERY Chinese things I will never quite get into.
that said, it’s also a small town. funny to think 7 million people packed into the world’s 6th densest populated area could feel like a small town, but in some ways it really does.

I propose ten pushups for ever Greg Oden field goal.

The Kings have the best bench I’ve seen. There are easily 14 guys on this team good enough for every bench in the league. Now if we could only get some starters, I’d totally jizz in my pants.

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.
