by Matt Steinmetz Filed under: Trail Blazers Apparently, when you're a pretty good team but lose to the Warriors , it's time to make some changes. Even if you don't necessarily want to. And that's what happened with coach Nate McMillan and the Blazers over the weekend. After losing to Golden State 108-94 on Friday night at Oracle Arena, lo and behold there was a different starting lineup for Saturday's...

Game Thread & Preview - Utah Jazz @ Cleveland Cavaliers

View full size photo » We're going to have to see at least the same performance tonight from the Jazz that we saw last night against the 76ers if we're going to have a shot in this one. For a team that we only see once a year, I really don't like the Cavs. I think the biggest reason is because of LeBron James . No question on the basketball court he is the top player in the league. But I think...

LeBron Says Players Should Give Up No. 23; James Making Switch To No. 6

BASKETBALL NOTES BY ALEX (Free subscription) | 11/13/2009

LeBron James, pretty much the best player in the NBA right now. But not the best in history. And he knows that. So with his No. 23, which he has been wearing since way back in his high school days, is making a switch to the No. Six. Why? James is giving his respect to the best basketball player in NBA history: Michael Jordan. After swishing 34 points on the Heat last night in a 111-104 win, Jordan...

LeBron James: Honor Jordan By Giving Up No. 23

SportsFilter (Free subscription) | 11/13/2009

LeBron James has called on all NBA players who wear No. 23 to choose another number as an homage to Michael Jordan. "I feel like no NBA player should wear 23," he said. "I'm starting a petition, and I've got to get everyone in the NBA to sign it. Now, if I'm not going to wear No. 23, then nobody else should be able to wear it." There are 12 other 23s in the league in addition to...

Game 8 Recap: Blazers 93, Grizzlies 79

Blazers Edge (Free subscription) | 11/11/2009

This was a fairly standard Blazer game, which made it a fairly odd Grizzlies game. As the final score indicates, this worked to Portland's advantage. The Blazers did exactly what they needed to do, not much more but certainly not less. They played a smart and efficient game, made relatively few mistakes, and faced the Grizzlies down mano-a-mano. In the end Memphis' weaknesses told more than Portland's....

History Suggests Jennings Will Be A Star

malaisej | 07/07/2009

Being a Bucks fan I started to do some research on the Bucks lottery pick, Brandon Jennings and I came across a site, statsheet.com, that combines all recruiting rankings for a given year. I think it shows some patterns regarding when some of the past HS kids busted and which ones were legit.
