Try at home against a team that only played 6 guys. Incredible.

Seriously? As if Heisley wasn't the joke of the league already.

Looks like Baron Von Wafer is joining Linus Kleiza in Greece to play for Olympiakos.

Good riddance. You know its bad when the Rockets, a team that will be in desperate need of scoring this upcoming season, aren't willing to resign him.

Would you put the Clippers, Bulls, or Hawks ahead of the Blazers?

This guy did.

So I'm not the biggest Travis Outlaw supporter, but he's not helping his cause.

Here is a recent update of his on Facebook:

" What does it mean if a girl tells you she doesn't like basketball players??? I'm not...it's the off season!"

Well, color me surprised! He's not playing basketball in the off season!

Screw that noise. As Wheels always says, do it til you're satisfied!

Needless to say, the Blazers made out like bandits. Roy and LMA are likely to have to the two highest paid players from the draft when all is said and done... according to this site, at least.

"Kirk Hinrich: Played so well on both ends that I'm now moving him into that Jason Terry/Mo Williams "We got overpaid and teams were afraid to trade for us, and maybe we let it affect us a little, but we remained talented, and as soon as our situations turned a little and our teams improved, we made a comeback; now everyone feels absolutely stupid for not trading for us when they could have had us for 40 cents on the dollar" group. Hinrich makes $10 million this season and $26.5 million total over the next three. That's not a fair price? How could the Blazers not make a run at him when they're trotting out that hideous combo of Steve Blake and Sergio Rodriguez? This bugs me."

Ugh, Simmons' ignorance infuriates me.

Steve Blake's post season:
-averaging 11.4 points on 51% shooting (and 10-22 from beyond the arc)
-6.4 assists on 1.0 turnovers during this post season.

Kirk Hinrich's post season:
-averaging 12.2 on 51% shooting (10-21 from beyond the arc)
-2.2 assists on 1.2 turnovers.

The argument/difference maker here could be Steve's horrible defense. We all know Brooks had an extraordinary first game. However, when looking at games 2-5, Brooks' stat line looks like this:

-averaging 13 points on 39% shooting (6-17 from beyond the arc)
-4.2 assists on 1 turnover.

So really, how can Hinrich be the difference maker? Commiting more than $26M for comparable stats seems ridiculous.

Cover story on Yahoo! Sports NBA page. I doubt it reveals anything we don't already know, but it is yet another outside perspective which is always nice to see.

Enjoy!
