But what we really want to know is if WSH has extended your live blogging contact ? I heard the front office feels your performance has been slipping in the last few live blogs (Or maybe that just the Blazer.) Is your absence this week a coincidence? Is this Tony Perz your replacement waiting in the (buffalo) wings? Any comment?

My position is as secure as Erik Spoelstra's job with the Heat.
Oh crap.

Since Spoelstra's coaching career is almost certainly coming to an end, maybe you can hire him to coach your rec league team. Then you and LBJ can have something in common (besides having no shot behind the arc).

All these years have warped my memory, but it seems weird that Nate has been here longer than Rick Adelman was.

@Süpêr Chuñdy
We have more than that in common. Both of our moms have slept with Delonte West. He's actually my stepdad.

@theterminizer
Both coached here for six seasons, but McMillan passed Adelman earlier this year. Although Adelman has MUCH more playoff coaching time in Portland—69 games coached to McMillan's 12.

PJ Carlesimo was my favorite blazer coach;he got kind of a bum rap http://cache3.asset-cache.net/xc/50728207.…

Why not just reprint Canzano's trash about the Blazers. It's about as interesting as Erze's shit.

@Bobby Sands,
Sure, the finer points of Ezra's work are as limited as a Juan Dixon Blazer highlight real; his writing is as awkward as Ha Seung-Jin on a fast break; he's got all the loveable charm and charisma of 'Sheed and Bonzi; the moral fiber of a Qyntel Woods; the untapped potential of a Ruben Boumtje-Boumtje.

But he's B-town's very own. So lay off.

@TSW Don't you EVER! disparage the game Ha! You sir, just made an enemy for life.
