Around SBN: Knicks Beat Lakers With Familiar Strategy

Gameday Open Thread: Rockets vs. Blazers--First Half

Overture, hit the lights!  This is it, the night of nights.  No more rehearsing or nursing a part...we know every part by heart!

OK...maybe this isn't exactly the Muppet Show but Blazers-Rockets is solid entertainment anyway.  Will we spectators be able to chill tonight like Kermit's nephew Scooter or will we be playing Statler and Waldorf in the balcony?  Chat here as we find out together.  Please show respect to each other, stay on topic, and refrain from posting illegal links or requesting posts for them.

Brandon Roy = Stringer Bell (smooth technician dedicated to his craft)
Nate McMillan = Cedric Daniels (well intentioned leader, but he can be too rigid for his own good at times)
Martell Webster = Wee Bey Brice (straight up solider who follows orders; every organization needs these guys to be successful)
Jerryd Bayless = Marlo Stanfield (he's new to the game, but he's watching and waitng; he will take over and there will be casualties)
Rudy Fernandez = Jimmy McNulty (he gets results, but the leadership wishes he was less of a wild man; the ladies love him)
Greg Oden = Michael Lee (he started off a quiet kid, but he's beginning to tap in to his huge potential to change the game)
Andre Miller = Lester Freamon (do not let the laconic demeanor fool you, the veteran knows what's up)
John Canzano = Scott Templeton (scummy muckraker who stays up at night polishing his award)

Always has been too. He sounds like a real chill guy that you can just have fun with. Even though the Blazers haven’t been doing well, I’ve always been content to see progress from just Oden himself. Heck, I’ve been calculating his stats before they even get updated…

Hopefully we won’t have to use it for a battle cry this season and Greg comes back.

less media attention on Oden's injuries the better

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.

Second Half Thread Up

The ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of Greg Oden.

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.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
