Sweet thread, SD-- except for the Grizz logo being where Portland's should be!

[SD2042]

^^^ My fault. Got caught up in snooze mode when I hit this thread up.

[PlinkingPanda]

Err.. It's a Kings logo now dood. >.>;

Comeon SD!

[cinnamon]

It hardly matters what logo SD puts up --- we have to keep our expectations minimal for the rest of the season no matter who shows up on what other team we're playing.
But at the Rose Garden, I do kind of expect the Blazers.

[Det the Threat]

Wow, we're playing the Kings at the Rose Garden?

I knew that they had trouble with their arena and might even be on the move, but up nort to Portland, were they've got to share the arena with the Blazers?

BTW: Looks like Al will be playing at the 4 again, which would mean, that he's got to guard Aldridge. Going to be lot's of fun, a lot of fun....

[SD2042]

I got it change. My screw up for being that sleepy last night.

[mj_shoefanatic]

putting AL @ the 4 is a bad idea especially vs this team.

[thanumba2clippersfan]

If our other big men are still going to be out then we don't have much of a choice of Al at the 4. Glad that you finally got the Blazers logo in SD. I want to see a good effort from our team, I'm tired of these blow outs.

Great news, we do have an injured player coming back tomorrow. We all know him as the one man press. Mike Taylor will be available to play in tomorrow's game.

[PlinkingPanda]

nice. I hope he manages to get some minutes. With Collins back and Jones playing well it'll be kinda hard.

That is great news. I would have loved to have seen him benefit from extra playing time during all of the injuries that we had, but I'm glad to see that he is finally back now.

[mj_shoefanatic]

Mike Taylor will work wonders for us @ that 1/2 spot. I'm so happy right now.

[scratch21]

Start Mike Taylor and Put BD on the IR now !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[hype_2004]

Deandre Jordan with 10 points and 20 reb with 5 blocks.

[mj_shoefanatic]

^ DJ bout to put up str8 Camby numbers on these foos!!

[mkwest]

Does anybody know if Mike Taylor has been sent down to the D-League? I happened to check out the Boxscore tonight and saw an "M. Taylor" log 10 minutes, but he's (M. Taylor) not on the official roster. I clicked on his name to see his profile, but it was blank. It would be good if the team actually used it to get him back into game shape, the only downside is that he didn't have that good of a game tonight if it really was him.

[Hooch20]

Thornton and Baron are game time decisions today.

Al Thornton (sore right foot) will be a game-time decision. Point guard Baron Davis, who had an ingrown toenail and cyst in his big right toe removed, will also be a game-time decision

[thanumba2clippersfan]

That's just what we need, more players to miss action.

Hmm. That's pretty interesting. I can't find any info on it at all.
