Greg Oden = Robert Parish (HOF, 4x NBA champion, 9x NBA All-Star). The only other rookie with more than 500 points, 400 rebounds, and 65 blocks in under 1400 minutes played. Since 1946.
K I’m confused. If Portland wins tonight, aren’t they tied with San Antonio and Denver at 54 wins? NBA.com says first tiebreaker goes by ‘Better winning percentage in all games among the tied teams.’ By my count Denver will be 4-3 with a loss tonight, Spurs are 2-5 and Portland 5-3. This is for 2nd, 3rd and 4th seed, so division winners shouldn’t matter, as the division winner is only guaranteed nothing lower than the fourth seed. All the major media outlets have San Antonio locked into the 3rd seed already. Any one know how this works? I thought I did, but I must be missing something.

If the Houston Rockets beat the Portland Trail Blazers in six games, it'll be the second toughest sports ...
moment of the year thus far for me. The Washington Huskies loss to the Purdue Boilermakers in the second round of the NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament would stay in first place, of course. The only thing that could top that would be, well, a devastating end of the season for the Seattle Mariners.
I assume Roy would have it at Blazers, Huskies, Mariners

It was as if I had awoken from a long and timultuos dream....
The next day I walked out the front door and my skin was kissed by the rising sun, giving me a sensation that I hadn’t felt since I was a young boy. Somehow the air smelled sweeter than it had at any time for the last six years, and I was filled with a feelings of resolution and hope. At first it was like an allergic reaction, overwhelming in its sudden intensity. And that’s when I remembered it wasn’t a dream at all. The Trailblazers were in the playoffs!!!

In fact, here's a comment of mine from way back on 10/21/2008
“I wouldn’t put either Steve Blake or Joel Przybilla in any trade proposal, as they’re important members of Portland’s rotation; instead, my deal included Raef LaFrentz’s expiring contract and the unproven, highly overrated Jerryd Bayless.”
http://www.blazersedge.com/2008/10/21/640116/proposed-trade-idea#9510353
As it is, Brandon Roy, Greg Oden, Joel Przybilla, and Nicolas Batum are the four guys on this ballclub who I wouldn’t trade under any circumstances.
Blake come on man. he misses LMA from the start then turns it over.
And Oden, once again, is a rookie, so non-stop fast break basketball is like fast-forwarding a song while he's trying to learn the lyrics.

Ah, it both saddens and pleases me that these two continue to support why I hate their style of play.
Greg Oden, Joel Przybilla, and other true pivotmen are those of whom who win championships, while guys like LaMarcus Aldridge, Travis Outlaw, and other jump shot happy forwards will always be on the outside looking in at all the glory.
Blazers look like they are on LSD, totally lost.

Denver turned up the defensive intensity
Melo stopped touching the ball and the Nuggets go on a run.
I fear for the day Paul Allen is no longer the owner of the Blazers.
He needs to reproduce soon so we have an heir in succession.
It's not a matter of confidence, but rather LaMarcus Aldridge and Travis Outlaw going back to their ...
old ways of suckitiude by shooting ill-advised shots.
LMA and BRoy combined 6-17
How did you guys win that?

i dont like our chances
if we start playoffs on the road, i dont see the guys realising this and playing hard with that in mind.
we gotta stop settling for jumpers, its a recipe for disaster

Palmer is crazy. That did not look like a foul

she's the worst ref in the nba . . .
Things happen for a reason they say, but I say there's a reason things happen.
no she isn't
people just notice her bad calls more because of her gender. She’s a little below average.
below average in the nba is horrendus though

Thats what Melo gets.
And Oden, once again, is a rookie, so non-stop fast break basketball is like fast-forwarding a song while he's trying to learn the lyrics.
Rudy Fernandez shooting three-point shots is a way more efficient attempt than LaMarcus Aldridge or ...
Travis Outlaw shooting moronic mid-range jumpers. Oh, and by the way, one made basket by Outlaw from mid-range doesn’t justify him shooting those bad shots.
Also, Hubie Brown is right about Kerry Kittles. It’s too bad that several posters here recently were taking shots at him due to their non-understanding of his career.
bench is why we are up 11
instead of down 11

Rudy on pace to get his second rookie record. Woot!
Greg Oden = Robert Parish (HOF, 4x NBA champion, 9x NBA All-Star). The only other rookie with more than 500 points, 400 rebounds, and 65 blocks in under 1400 minutes played. Since 1946.

I love how George Karl continues to play the starters
Every Nugget looks like they are in pain….LOL…here’s to a unrested Nuggets team in the 1st round.
I fear for the day Paul Allen is no longer the owner of the Blazers.
He needs to reproduce soon so we have an heir in succession.
Shoutout to Timbo.
Hey man thanks for hanging out last night at the new SilverScreen and Roll. Appreciate all your insight, plus you invited a few of us here for tonights game. I haven’t commented yet, but hope you win. I really can’t stand the Tats.
