Nice link

I love the comment from the guy who said Roy is overrated… I bet people still feel this way about him across the country. I think it’s indicative that the Blazers truly need to prove themselves by making it to the post-season and advancing until they’re taken seriously. The individual accolades will be worthy, especially to Portland fans, but respect is something they’re going to need to go out and prove.

That happens everywhere

Most fans don’t know much about other teams. You’ll notice is here too. Someone from another team will have a good night against the Blazers and there will be a FanPost or two the next day proposing a trade for the guy.

I doubt I could name two players from every team in the NBA. If it was a quiz, after the answers were given I would say, “Oh, that’s right,” over and over again on all my blank answers. The only thing Golden State fans know about Roy is that he beat out Davis for the last All Star spot. For some of them, that will be all they ever know about him.

Serious?

I can name at least 7 players from every team. Stop cheesing Tom.

Really?

I can name 2 Bobcats. That’s probably my worst team. Maybe I should have said 3 players.

Gerald Wallace
DJ Augustin
Emeka Okafor
Raymond Felton
Sean May
Jason Richardson

by Cablinasian on Oct 9, 2008 8:51 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Without looking and thinking too long about it

Emeka Okafor, Jason Richardson, D.J. Augustin, Gerald Wallace, Sean May, Adam Morrison, Raymond Felton, Nazr Mohammed, Alexis Ajinca.
Then there is an overpaid three point specialist whose name I can’t remember right now. Something with C? And Michael Jordan.

Don’t know what my worst team would be, but 5+ should work on all.

Yup, found him

They rest of the guys currently on the roster I honestly didn’t know about.

Would be a nice quiz for a website

Name the players. I know I once did a “name the teams in each conference”, and by God I couldn’t come up with the name of one team.

easy peasy

2 players? Come on Tommy Boy…….

Witty Unpredictable Talent and Natural Game

by iDea on Oct 9, 2008 9:45 AM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Two players?

I can’t even name the other teams. Who cares?

The most amazing thing about my amazing ego is I have amazingly little about which to be egotistical.
The pick and roll this year will emphasize "roll" followed by "dunk", followed by the wailings and lamentations of your women.

There are other teams, you say?

Sergio has a knack for making passes that lead to layups and dunks, for both teams. - Ben G.

Golden State? They still have fans lol, thought they all jumped off the bandwagon. It's just hilarious we

didn’t play our whole starting 5 at all. Oden and Aldridge played limited minutes. Roy, Blake, and Webster did’t play at all. Yet they probably think they are so good now. Sad, but they need something to cling to, because the future of their team looks sad.

After the SacTown game

People here were acting like the Blazers were going to go undefeated. All fans are fickle.

Azibuike

is a beast though. And I’m pretty sure he isn’t a starter. He played better than all our “reserves”, including Rudy, who wasn’t strong enough to keep him from slashing repeatedly to the rim for dunks. Magette and Azibuike are going to be carrying that team, along with Biedrins and Cap’n Jack. I’m not to sure we can write them off as lottery scrap, they are easily in the mix for top 9 teams in the west.

He looked good

And I REALLY like Brandon Wright. He showed some brilliant offensive moves and solid defense.

Brandon Wright

is a pretty talented player, I agree. He seemed a bit raw last year, but looked pretty good last night against our 2nd unit.

Slightly off-topic

But those covers for 2k9 were sick. We need a tony.psd

Can't believe that they

are still mad about Roy over Davis for the ASG. That was long ago. And Davis LEFT them. Why would they still be sticking up for him?

My favorite teams are the Blazers and any team that is playing the Lakers.

by OCBlazerFan1 on Oct 9, 2008 3:56 PM PDT   0 recs

Brandon had the most points and minutes for the western conference in the ASG

His game does the talking for him. Blazer fans should not have to convince other fans. I say let them say whatever they want. We know how good he is.

by Sabonis4Ever on Oct 9, 2008 3:58 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Very true.
