Like all bloggers, we at PRS while away our days thinking about the most extravagant ways we can spend the towering stacks of cash we are scarcely able to move around our apartment without hitting. If you find yourself in a similar boat, and are as sartorially inclined as we are, then this spectacular 1983-84 Clyde Drexler jersey can be yours for the meager sum of $260. We are ordering extras, because of the threat of caviar stains.
Late to the party on this one, but James Herbert got inside Damian Lillard’s head for an excellent profile of Damian Lillard last week. As we’ve mentioned here before, Damian is not exactly loquacious, so it’s frankly sort of a jerk move of James to get all of his words for 2013 before anybody else could write a profile. Seriously, it’s worth a read.
Yesterday, Terry Stotts had himself a Skype with TrueHoop’s Henry Abbott. They talk overtime success, the looming specter of tanking, and something that made me Google Bum Phillips. Well worth a watch.
Joe Freeman has done great work chronicling the LaMarcus Aldridge beat all season, and his latest piece on the Blazers’ internal conviction that LA is the game’s best power forward does not buck that trend. Great read, with some great locker room insight from the Blazers’ win in New York.
Finally, Jonathan Abrams’ profile of Rasheed Wallace and Jerry Stackhouse is just terrific. Between this and his earlier deep dive on Zach Randolph, Abrams is doing the lord’s work bringing light on some characters whose time in Portland was NOT EXACTLY ROSES.
