JUST BLAZE

To all basketball fans, the loooong wait is almost over. More than being a laker fan, I AM A HUGE BASKETBALL FAN as well. With that said, I'm picking the Portland Trailblazers as my team for this season. Dibs. Why? I say "why not"? After this crazy offseason of trades and free agent signings, gone are the days of the "run and gun Suns" and the "we believe Warriors". Other than the Lakers, the Hornets and the Jazz are the apparent big boys in the yard that is called the west. The Blazers' youth, inexperience, talent and flare are what makes them the dark horse of the year. Can we say "NY Giants" of the NBA? You bet I can concur with that.
