- and then there were nine. Jamario’s Achilles is acting up, so we are down to only 9 healthy bodies. Coach understands the reason he has been handed only 13 guys to start the season, but admits it makes him concerned about running full contact practices. Lovely. That bodes well.
- Damon Stoudamire is looking at a possible assistant coaching role with the Wildcats.
- David Moore of the Dallas Morning News brings up a good point: last year we finished 25 games behind the Celtics. Is JO enough to make us a contender?
- Steve Simmons points out that JO and Chris are nice figureheads, but we don’t match up well at all with any NBA team at shooting guard and small forward.
- ESPN has a nice fluff piece on Jermaine. Glad I found this since I ran out of sugar for my coffee.

- our friends over at Dino Nation have an interesting poll running.

Don’t forget about our contest, where you can win centre court seats for the home opener (and get out of answering the door for Hallowe’en). Also, since it’s Sunday and you should be letting others do work for you, check out our Stat-O-Meter 3000. Just don’t search for how many 30+ point games Primoz had for us….you might break the thing.
Lastly, remember that if the Phillies play on Wednesday, the start time for the season opener gets moved to 6pm. Leave work early!!
