Nice little article in SI about the new PG from the Blazers...how he learned the "pick and roll offense" from one of his coaches at Weber St...Damian Lillard...and became a must have for the NBA...ha ha...they were saying that there are like 10-15 nuances to the O...and, now Damian has them in his repertoire...I hate the way the game has gone...two on two and everybody else clears out of the way, and hopes that they get the ball to spot up...boooo...gone is the movement of all 5 players...it's a boring way to play...shoot, and very few teams run the floor...and it has transferred down to the collegiates...like at Weber St...

Most everyone around here expects the Bolts to go in to Cleveland and bop the Browns...in fact, all the scribes have it that way...not CH...the Chargers will be nailed...again...like 24-17...you better hope that it's not the game you have on the national broadcast...it will be turrible...
