15 Thoughts vs. Phoenix 11/1

After an incredible home opener, "your" Portland Trail Blazers head to the desert to take on the Phoenix Suns.  Could this be a high octane battle for the ages?  Possibly.  Should this have been the hazing of Greg Oden from the Diesel?  Most definitely.  Now let's get into the 15!

1.  Maria Sharapova is a fan.  +1 Suns
2.  Shaq in a back-to-back is like Sarah Palin talking the Phillies at a rally, a trainwreck.  +1 Blazers
3.  Amare Stoudemire laughs in the face of micro-fracture.  +1 Suns
