They've got an 8 game roadie before the

All Star break. I don’t know if that’s a good schedule or brutal.

It wasn't the first time I'd been kicked in the cherries and called a rat by a woman, but it was the first time I didn't mind.

Guess what.... They end up playing 41.

Bayless 1st half

16 pts, 7-15, 4 ast, 0 TO. All on a throbbing hip. Welcome to the party

by momomoses7 on Dec 23, 2009 6:41 PM PST reply actions  

Yeah, I like what he brings.

And by that I mean rebounds and ruggedness on the interior.

by Roy Wonder on Dec 23, 2009 6:44 PM PST up reply actions  

what a guy!

Everyone else has been doing pretty good as well, contributing in their own small ways

Wouldn't mind if Bayless was starting. Or at least playing.

Yeah playing Juan Howard this many minutes, it’s like we are reanimating one of the terra cotta soldiers for one more battle or something.

Who cares about home games for the Lakers.

They don’t really have a crowd advantage.

In Bayless I trust.

They have themselves pretty well convinced that they play as well road as they do at home...

Not quite true, but they BELIEVE it’s true and that is about 75% of the struggle…

Can they improve further this year?

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. Original video of the play here. Quotes from the players and coaches here. The NBA admitting it got the call wrong here. Dave's extended thoughts here. BlazersMakr's FanShot: Major Vegas action on OKC prior to tip here. Audio of Chad Doing of 750 AM The Game going HAM on Foster here. OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion. Courtside video via Blazers Broadcasting cameraman John Curry. -- Ben Golliver | benjamin.golliver@gmail.com | Twitter
