Help Me Pick my League Pass Choice Teams

  1. Need 7 teams total, I can only watch games involving at least one of these teams
  2. Blazers get spot #1 obviously
  3. In order to maximize my coverage, picking all the top teams in the league is counterproductive, given that they are on national TV a lot
  4. looking for ENTERTAINING teams to watch, not necessarily the best teams record-wise
  5. OKC is probably a lock for a spot, with 2 of the big 3 in the East probably in as well. This gives me 3 more spots. Any suggestions?

Some Early Short thoughts on Game 1

  1. Houston has been pushing the tempo, and we've been giving up lots of fast breaks. Interesting to see how that works out
  2. Houston will start the 6'6" Chuck Hayes at center. Hayes is no pushover, but giving up 6 inches, Oden better get a LOT of chances down low
  3. Related to the above, if Nate decides to go small ball for large chunks of the game instead of exploiting his own matchup advantage, so help me...
  4. Will we look any better than last year at mitigating the damage of quick penetrating point guards?

Jason Quick just got done talking to Nate and came on the radio to report Nate will start Sunday's game against Denver--and is leaning towards doing the same to open the regular season--with a lineup of Blake, Roy, Batum, Aldridge, and Przybilla

Looks like Spain will face France in the first game of the quarter-finals on Thursday. Time is not yet set, but expect it to start in mid-morning Portland time.

Winner goes to the semis and gets a spot in the 2010 World Championships. Loser can finish no better than 5th and will have to win the next game to lock up a 2010 Worlds spot.

Jazz will match - what next?


http://www.kjzz.com/fansports/teams/utah-jazz/50976482.html

Salt Lake Radio is reporting that sources within the Jazz organization are confirming that they will indeed match the contract offer the Portland Trail Blazers gave to Paul Millsap, thus surprising pretty much no one.

So, what's next Portland fans?  Odom? Andre Miller? Big Baby? David Lee? Trade or hold out for in-season deal?

Put me down for standing pat (for now), and hoping for a good deal to come along once the season gets going.

Memphis has been recruited (shocker!) to be the facilitator in the Marion to Dallas deal. Reportedely Memphis is not going to net anything for it's trouble.

Memphis continues it's run of being the other 29 team's lacky.
