Blake Griffin broke his knee cap. That's two number one picks in the last three years with exploding knees before opening night. I guess it skips a generation. Nic Batum is out for months with sholder surgery. Bummer. He is an exciting young Blazer and perhaps their best defender.

Creepy, bug-eyed power forwards with bad hair cuts will stake out your porch and wait for you to come home.

OTOH, that kid was an amazing high school player. I've seen at least 20 kids come through that went on to the NBA, and he was the best high school player I've ever seen. Alonzo Mourning was really good, but he still had a little bit of coordination issues at that age. Ted Dupay was the best shooter.

Hansbrough caught a pass on the left baseline, crossed over the guard, spun on the PF, and did a 360 from one side of the basket, under it to the other side and dunked it. It was pretty amazing for a 6-8 kid who is supposedly limited athletically. Granted, the team was playing against would have lost by 25 to my high school team, but it was still pretty impressive. In that game, he made every shot and free throw, including all his 3's.

It looks like he's the same player today though, like he peaked in high school.

You play the first half lines? You can make big money on them early season...kind of like September NFL games.

Nah. I don't like to bet on basketball lines. College basketball is easier to predict, but I don't feel like I'm up on it enough anymore to put money down. NBA spreads are just unpredictable and I can never get good enough action to feel good about betting the money.
