HELLO SACRAMENTO
Fellow NBA fan here from Portland and wanted to ask you a favor.
For some reason comcast sports in Sac is showing the game, however Comcast PDX is not showing the game, even though it is in our house.
So if one of you fine gentlemen/women would like to do us fans here in Portland a favor and broadcast the game over the internet we would be in your debt.
Yours truly,
Blazer fan
The season cannot get here soon enough.
I wish I could get some online Kings basketball

Whaat?!
Being a Kings fan, I can honestly say I share your pain. If I were a Trailblazer fan, I’d really want to see the debut of Greg Oden. I think it’s a serious misdeed that they aren’t showing the game there. If I could help you out, I would, but I have no idea how to set up my cable box to work with my PC, nor probably have the wires to hook up to my computer. Sorry.
Oh it gets worse my southern friend.
Get this: Crapcast DOES NOT have a contract with either of the dishes, or smaller local cable providers save for a few.
So if you do not have Comcast then you do not get CSNW. Kinda like what I hear happend to your comcast but you got yours a few months into the season, ours has lasted an entire year and may stretch into this season as well.
Hows that for ya?

Kings need to make the playoffs.
A face like Reggie Theus just needs national television exposure.
Donte? Donte'! Donté?!?!
'spect da 'xtra E'
Beno good with beating the two defenders upcourt
and takign it hard with a spin move. The miss yes, but the kid is healthy.
Damnit Hawes.
Donte? Donte'! Donté?!?!

Kenny Thomas could not have been responsible for all of that, could he?

Ugh
Where did the interior D and rebounding go? We want Thompson and Shelden!
I like the halftime vignette
especially when Kevin talked about being “…without Mike and Ron…” and just had a big grin on his face as if to say “this is my team now, bitches!”

even Peaches was looking good

I know it's preseason and all...
but Rockets game:
Yao Ming- 22 min, 2-6, 10 pts
Ron Artest: 24 min, 4-12, 15 pts
McGrady: DNP
Good luck this season Yao…

by Shelden, spinning past Oden, drawing the foul.

Cuz I know you’re one person who has several. Unfortunately I’ll be unable to watch many games this season on TV because I don’t have cable. :(

Rather Brilliant sir
I appreciate you posting them actually. (I’ll just end up linking this to anyone who wants to know. It will save time.)

Shawes is looking like he's still
worn out from the suicides. There’s going to be a bunch of nights like this this season. Shawes ain’t anywhere near ready to replace brad.
"We are in the business of kicking butt and business is very, very good." - Charles Barkley
Shawes
Looks like he should be behind Miller, Moore, Thompson, Williams, and possibly K9 on the big man depth chart at this point.
Yeah
Hawes looked absolutely terrible. Didn’t see that coming. Salmons sucked too.
I'm with you guys.
I’m starting to wonder if Hawes sat in a gym practicing his hook and not doing anything else. Oden added thirty pounds of muscle with a knee injury and Hawes looks the same as he did last year physically- go eat a cheese burger bitch. The Kings interior D is gonna be weak sauce and Brad Miller better be ready to play 33 minutes a game because I don’t see him losing many minutes to either Hawes or Williams.
Oh, and Fernandez is flat out nasty.
Hot dogs, get your hot dogs.
Hawes looked ok to me..
…just physically outmatched by Oden, which may be a theme this year

It's sad to think about
how many here were calling for Miller to be ousted in favor of Hawes. I think they were hoping I would bring that up.
Brad would seem a lot less expendable
If he played better interior defense himself. I know Brad is a much better rebounder than Shawes, but I’m not sure he would’ve faired much better at decreasing the amount of points in the paint that the Blazers got. I don’t think Shawes is anywhere near ready to replace Brad, but I understand why many people around here want to see a change at the 5 spot.
Make the shot JT
nice effort on the offensive boards though.

Wow
only 13 points in the first 15:30 of the 2nd half. Wheels have really fallen off.

Now only 13
points thru 18:30. 0 thru 5:30 in the 4th.

Fun watching exuberant Blazer fans
Good to see. I can’t wait for that feeling to return to ARCO.
SACTOWN ROYALTY - Try our thick creamy shakes!
So
Blazers have 30 assists to 10 TOs and Kings have 9 assists to 9 TOs. That’s not a good thing.

Only 9 TO's?
Pessimist.
Oh, wait, we’re down 35? Guess that makes you a realist.
SACTOWN ROYALTY - Try our thick creamy shakes!
9 TOs is great
problem is we had 7 assists and 1 TO early in the 2nd half.

Ugly Game
I miss Kevin Martin and Brad Miller already…
BOOK IT!
Yes it was ... But
did you notice the Kings were looking good but then then wheels came off precisely when K-9 entered the game? I hope Reggie noticed it.
I may be somewhat late to the game but...
The word “raw” comes to mind. No?
More of this brand of hilariosu insight can be found at vegaskings.blogspot.com and now reclaimingthetitle.blogspot.com
Tough to say
I only caught the second and third quarters, and it really seemed to me the Kings looked a hell of a lot quicker when Bobby Brown was running the point.
Of course, it’s all out of context, and the rotations are fluid. But Beno just looks too slow to run this team if they are going to play a high-octane style.
It’s early yet. It’s all meaningless. I’ve got to stop living in the past…
Rocks are free, and slingshots easily stolen.
I'm sure Beno will look alot better
with Brad aiding distribution, and K-Mart able to rip half-court sets.
No, he’s not built for the run-and-gun game, nor is he built to be a primary distributor (forcing him to be so pass-focused really strangles his offensive options, which further damages his passing ability). However, having legitamite wepaons (post defender can’t slide away from Brad, wing defender can’t slide over away from Martin) will markedly improve his game.
I’m not sure markedly is a word.
Donte? Donte'! Donté?!?!

Markedly may not be a word
But do we care? (Your point was important. Markedly being a word or not is not.) So neener neener!

BE Link
Not sure if this was already mentioned, but the link to Blazers Edge has a comma rather than a period in it.
A lonely Kings fan in a sea of gold and purple...
So go here instead
Blazer’s Edge. There now you can’t complain the link don’t work JC.

I wasn't complaining.
I was pointing out an error for correction. Someone else may not have noticed and assumed the site was down.

Sorry that came off the wrong way JC
I was really being a smartass. So, again, my apologies.

No worries.
You and I seem to have nearly this exact conversation every few months. I tend to avoid inferring sarcasm on the internet to avoid confusion.
A lonely Kings fan in a sea of gold and purple...
Yeah that's gets irritating
I’ll try to notice the sarcastic side of your comments next time.
