So far I have two fans of my blog, but hey you know what that is fine by me, we all have to start somewhere! Anyways last nights game was less than inspired for the Blazers, but I will defend them in that it was the last game of a seven-game East Coast road trip and they were T-I-R-E-D. They beat the teams that they should have, and played good close ballgames against the Celtics, Toronto, and Orlando, losing by no more than ten ,(and that coming against the team with the best record in the league) and then they just ran out of juice last night. Not to mention with the win New Orleans has the second best record in the league.... so all in all I would say it was a pretty good trip for the Blazers, and now I think we are all looking forward to this six game homestand.I really think that this road trip says a lot about this young Blazers team, we are still in the thick of the division title race, are holding our own in a tough and even Western Conference, and to top it all off LaMarcus Aldridge had a solid game last night! But really this team has battled through this road trip and in games like the Atlanta one, you could just see how tired they were, they have been playing back-to-backs, they have played some good teams, and they just wanted to get to their home court where they are 17-3. It must be Blaze the Trail Cat........

hey ben-- enjoying the blog here.
i think you should devote a page in the near future to the heart and soul of the real hate. that would be the LA Lakers.
just go from derek fishbreath down the line to andrew bunions. you would think kobe would be on top of my hate list but its actually odom. especially when he got in the face of the then rookie lamarcus in last year's show down in LA. why was he coming into our huddle again to jaw with a rookie? what a doosh
