    Dont forget Portland is Simmons home town team. I believe he made a wager with one of our local writers about the outcome of a regular season game earlier in the season and lost, forcing him to do a full column on the rox.

    Bill Simmons was born and raised in Boston, and lives in LA.

    You're thinking of Henry Abbott from Truehoop. He's a very thoughtful analyst, and one of the best basketball voices on the internet today.

    Neither Simmons, nor House (his friend) mentioned how the teams matched up in the regular season. I thought that was curious.
