| The 2009-10 NBA season for the Portland Trailblazers starts this evening at the Rose Garden, with the Houston Rockets providing the opposition. A special (if somewhat bittersweet) welcome back to Martell Webster, who will start at the 3-hole for the injured Nic Batum, who looks to be out until January at least. I haven't decided what level of coverage to give the team this year--last year seemed like a special time, and even though it ended a little abruptly I think it was. This year seems to hold even more promise, and that makes news. But it's a grueling 82 game season, especially trying to cover events in the evening when the Joe family is doing things like eating, homework and whanot. I think the best service may be to liveblog away games, as a way to enhance the experience a little bit for anyone who can't see the game on TV (which for away games is a lot of people in Oregon, thanks to Comcast unfortunately). Need a good preview? The boys at Blazers Edge are back, and they do it better than anyone. So enjoy the game, and check back later for a recap of the opener. RIP CITY! |
