But I'll bet you have a day job, so that when you fly back east, you
have to get up extra early to be up in the morning, and that this is
what disrupts your sleeping habits.  When you fly back west, you get
to sleep in, so its easier to adjust back.  Since NBA players play at
night, their early start is at 5pm, not 5am.

  [ The Rest of the Story - deleted ]

  I hate to even make a post on this subject, but before you run off and
  linch the Blazers, lets concider.

  1) These are aligations.
  2) They are aligations from run-a-way girls who gave this story to the
     police after they were caught shoplifting.
  3) Some of the players mentioned don't play for the Blazers any more.
  4) It's highly unprofessional of the Salt Lake police officers to release
     any of this story before any charges are filed.
  5) The media eats this kind of stuff up.  A portland news show had a 
     special segment on what the Utah sexual abuse laws are...
  6) All the Blazer players consider it ludicrous.
  7) Won't anyone in Utah recognize any of the Blazers if they were crusing
     the Mall(s) looking for chicks?  I know that if any of the Utah players
     were running around Malls in Portland, they would be noticed.  I mean
     it's not everyday NBA players go the Mall (without police escorts to
     get them to the autograph table).

Not to offend anyone, but I think in Salt Lake City, offering a girl a Coke

	Are you saying Jordan scores a lot of points just because he shoots a  
lot?  He shoots over 50%.  With some of the shots he takes, that's pretty  
impressive.  Any guy that can shoot over 50% deserves to take a lot of shots.

This came off today's USA Today on-line news:

BLAZERS WILL NOT FACE CHARGES:
   Police in Salt Lake City will not seek criminal charges against
any Portland Trail Blazers in connection with a Saturday night
incident in which two 16-year-old girls said they had sex with
players. Lt. Marty Vuyk said Wednesday an investigation concluded
the girls consented to sex and lied to the players, saying they
were 18. The County Attorney's office will review it Thursday.   


Also, i read that they were going to have trouble making a case because of
inconsistencies in the girls' stories.

Legally, they're off the hook, but they picked a bad city to flirt with
morality issues...

No T and no ejection because somehow the Celtic Mystique hit the refs and
they completely missed it.  However, Parish WAS suspended for game 6 of that
series, when Detroit would blow Boston out.  Detroit was angry because Parish
might not have been able to play that game anyway because of ankle injury.

Saw in the Phoenix paper that Sir Charles was suspended (probably
everyone knows this by now) and was also fined $10,000. Charles said
he wasn't surprised by the suspension but still said he didn't deserve
it.

The paper also made reference to the fact that Charles makes alittle
over $29,000 a game, no wonder he isn't influenced by money!


I'm new to Phoenix but I love Charles Barkley...I like the fact that
he'll say whats on his mind, even though its not to everyone's liking,
cant please everyone. Keep up the good work Charles, you do bring
attention to the Suns, whether its positive on the court or negative
off...

People I know that are Suns fans like Barkley and are impressed with his
playing and how well him and his team mates have come together, and on
the flip side..when he 'goes off', they have something else to talk
about.

You call the midwest weak, but they are only weak compared to the Pacific!
There combined record against the eastern conference is 36-38. Nothing
to brag about, but that's not weak.

Some more stuff figured from the above table :

Division VS Conference:
                 Pacific      Central    Atlantic    Midwest
Eastern          55-42         ---         ----       36-38
Western           ---          43-46      37-45       ----

So the midwest is weak huh?

That's me. :)
 
Pistons trailed 109-93 with 6:44 left. They cut it to 118-109 with two
minutes remaining. A last second 3-pointer by Mills rolled out, preventing
a 1-point win.
 
This game had at least 19 lead changes. Olden Polynice played his first
game since being injured and he got 15 rebounds--see, someone besides
Rodman can rebound! Contrary to popular belief, Pistons offense was
good: 119 points and .520 FG%. I didn't expect that 3-pointer by Mills
to go in at the end to win the game, but it came damn close!
 
Had they won, it would've broken a 5-game losing streak and the Rodman curse
(they haven't won without Dennis this season). I guess they'll just have
to do it against Boston this Wednesday! :) It wasn't too bad for me seeing
them lose to the best team in the league this way, but a win would've been
something else.

>Don Nelson:  "We played a great game tonight,

Well, I disagree with that statement. Two things they can do better
that they paid for last night.  Portland is great at creating turnovers,
but a number of the Warriors' turnovers last night were unforced. Trying
to make passes that aren't open, trying to dribble through a double-
team.  In the 2nd half, most of these gs turnovers turned directly into 
fast breaks.

These two stats reveal the final margin of victory for Portland:

>points off turnovers gsw 24 por 33
>fastbreak points     gsw 19 por 28


The other thing they could improve on is not letting cutters drift
right to the rim uncovered while defending the perimeter passing game.
Portland got at least a dozen uncontested layups by sneaking in the back
door.

You don't mind Cliff Robinson hitting a 14-foot jump shot with Gatling
contesting, but something's wrong if Rod Strickland receives the ball
1 foot from the rim with no defender within 5 feet.  Especially if it
happens several times.

>Don Nelson:  "The power in the West is right here (Portland).  Those who

Seattle and Phoenix are pretty good, too.  And they all play Warrior style
basketball, but with more established atheletes.  To stay with these guys
without Billy Owens is pretty tough, especially when everyone who can play
"big" lacks a lot of NBA experience.  I'm surprized the team is consistantly
close enough to have a chance at winning, under the circumstances. With
50% fewer 4th quarter turnovers, I wouldn't be surprized if we had 50% more
wins.

>
>A highlight reel game from start to finish for both teams.

A real barnburner, to be sure.  And Golden State played well, but not
"as good as they're capable of".  They need to cut down on the mental
mistakes if they are to capitalize on everything they're doing right,
which is really a lot, but often not quite enough.

Always.  Suns had a 14 pt lead in the 4th quarter, but let the Pistons
get to within 1 with seconds to go.  The Suns really turn it up and
down more than any club I've seen.  The can be awsome and they can be
shitty and they can do it all in the same quarter.  Majerle and Dumas
finally got seom good national exposure.  Barkley got called for a T
for putting is hands up in the air about a call.  I forget what the
call was about, but Barkley didn't agree with it and simply put his
hands in the air about it and a ref at the complete other end of the
court called a T.  There's no way he could have heard Charles say
anything, so he made the T based on that gester - bullshit call.  He's
definitely a marked man.

Pistons have no offense.  No wonder Rodman gets so many rebounds. How
many misses are in the average Piston game?  Dumars is a stud and Mills
looked very good.  The Suns had so many wide open jump shots I couldn't
believe it.  You'd think whoever was guarding Majerle wouldn't leave
him (or at least someone would rotate to him) after he hits 3 or four
threes on you - so much for that great Detriot defense.
