    It popped up this morning on my ESPN radio app.

    Dude has as thorough of an evaluation of this series as you will find out there along with a surprisingly intelligent sounding Tom Haberstroh.

    You thought you knew about the effectiveness of LA's midrange game? I bet you learn more about it after listening to this. Also it's great that the nation is realizing how much superior of a coach Terry is than McHale-- a fact I was hammering in here while making predictions.

    Highly recommended listen.

    "Poor Robin Lopez". Right now, "poor" Robin Lopez is on a team that's up two. We left him on an island and Dwight owned him. However, "poor" Robin Lopez took one for the team.

    Interesting about the incompatibility of Howard's and Harden's games.

    I think everyone that works for the Blazers understands Robin is doing what he's paid to do, and working well.

    Great comments about how we're not fouling Harden, and the effect it's having on his game.

    It's so funny when he goes up for a "shot" and you can tell he has no intention of actually scoring. It's like his game plan is to just get fouled.

    Awesome, I just downloaded, I'll listen now. What has surprised me is the SVP & Russillo podcast or radioshow has been great, and they are pretty damn Blazer knowledgeable and supporters. Take a listen to that to, especially after a Blazer game.

    Great discussion about Beverley and his knee. We've been there before with Brandon. I have made this point on Clutchfans and they seem to think he'll be okay.

    I hate playing against Beverley, but if he hurts his knee and loses that payday, I'm going to feel sorry for him.

    I imagine McHale's coaching skull sessions involve listening to podcasts and getting ideas.

    SVP has always seemed really knowledgeable. He was really the only one I ever liked on SC when I used to watch it, because he'd go in depth with little known guys.

    Both SVP and Russillo seem to be real fans, which is nice to hear, they get a lot of enjoyment out of basketball, unlike many commentators who eventually become "experts" and forget that this is a fun sport to revel in.
