NBA paths

The Trailblazers mauled the hapless Clips last night at the Forum. Is it still called the Forum? The game was tight through 3 quarters and then the PDX bench unloaded and put the game away. Led by Travis Outlaw Portland just wore the home team out. LAC has 4 guys out injured, including former jailblazer Zach Randolph. This is not a good job...how does Dunleavy keep or want this job?

The Thunder (Supersonics) and the Wolves won also. So now it is down to the Clips and Wiz as the worst.

Talk about perceptions...Pat Perez is surrounded by friends who never lost faith in his ability to win. The Golf Channel would have you believe he is not a good guy. Far from it. His rap was his emotional explosion if something goes wrong. Good on him and hopefully he has a great season. He used a new Taylor Made driver and it isn't out to the public yet. Must be a dandy...

The Sooper Bowl blitz hasn't hit yet. Probably because it doesn't have a NY team in it. More pundits have stuck their necks out and picked the Cards.

Finally, Lefty will show up at the Phoenix event this week. Real interesting bit on Arnold Palmer at the BH. He said he and Jack Nicklaus would never skip an event 2 or 3 years in a row. He felt that they owed to the tourneys back then. My how that theory has changed. Maybe with the economy as it is the major players will go to that system...

Go Titans!
