There's a real game on Wednesday night. Did you hear? Dave's preview of the Rose Garden opener between the Portland Trail Blazers and Los Angeles Lakers is here.

A few audio clips to tide you over until tip off.

• Here's audio from a Tuesday chat with Chad Doing on 750 AM The Game. Segment starts at the 23:00 mark. 750 The Game posted some quotes here if you can't listen for some reason. We talk some Portland Trail Blazers and also some general NBA.
• Here's audio from a Wednesday chat with John Canzano of 750 AM The Game. Segment starts at 12:00 mark. Mostly Blazers talk.
• Here's audio from a Wednesday chat with Travis Demers and Josh Wilcox on 1080 AM The Fan. This one is mostly Blazers-centric.

Also, a few season-opening plugs. Be sure to follow along on Twitter for in-game observations and post-game notes and quotes. Also, check us out on Facebook here. I'll be putting up more post-game stuff on there as well.
