    It's represents the Rocket's first NBA championship with Adelman. That's just a guess. ;-)

    Yeah, I also saw the pin.

    I would guess a former Blazer ping; after all he led the Blazers to the finals one year.

    I think it is for former Detroit Pistons coach Chuck Daley. He was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.

    That's a stand up move by Rick and everyone else. This is the type of stuff we need the NBA.

    But..I do miss Ron-Ron's "Tru Warier" being shaved into his head. That, my friends, is classy and humble. :D

    The Blazers fans think we cannot play better than tonight. :D

    They are in for a hell of surprise. They ain't really seen what lock down D means. We are so going to shut them down for 8 minutes without a single bucket. The Blazers are match up heavens for us, as the opposite of Utah. Their big men can't shoot far out, equally slow. Their wingers are dumber and defends less than us. AB is not going to keep up scoring like tonight, but other than that we are just playing about average. That's the scary part to the Blazers.

    The pin, which is for Chuck Daly, is being worn by players, coaches, and others to Support Daly, who is fighting cancer.
