    <h3>Parker, Spurs begin title defense vs. Trail Blazers</h3>

    <div class="pre">Portland (0-0) at San Antonio (0-0) 8:00 pm EDT</div>

    SAN ANTONIO (Ticker) -- Tony Parker, Tim Duncan and the SanAntonio Spurs begin their title defense on Tuesday when theyhost the Portland Trail Blazers.


    It was another banner season for the Spurs, as Parker was namedthe Finals MVP in a sweep of LeBron James and the ClevelandCavaliers last June.


    San Antonio, which won its fourth title in six seasons, returnsvirtually the same team and has a solid chance at winningback-to-back titles for the first time in franchise history.

    While Parker earned the accolades, Duncan had another excellentseason, averaging 20.0 points and 10.6 rebounds.


    With Parker and Duncan leading the way, the Spurs seek their11th straight win over the Blazers.


    Portland suffered a huge setback when it learned that Greg Oden- the first overall pick of June's draft - will miss the entireseason after undergoing microfracture surgery on his right kneein September.


    Still, the Trail Blazers have reason for optimism because theyhave a talented nucleus to build around.


    Brandon Roy averaged 16.8 points and 5.0 rebounds to take homeRookie of the Year honors, and fellow rookie LaMarcus Aldridge -the second pick of the 2006 draft - challenged him for theaward.


    Portland also bolstered its frontcourt by striking a draft-daydeal to acquire Channing Frye from the New York Knicks as partof a six-player trade.


    The Trail Blazers have their work cut out for them though, as theyhave lost eight straight here.
