Is Batum Turning Trout Into "Steelhead"?

Does anyone think it was a coincidence that, after watching the skinny, teenaged Nic Batum snare rebound after rebound from the three spot vs the Jazz, Trout suddenly became a rebounding demon against the Rockets the other night? 

 

The question for me is: was "Steelhead" a flash in the pan (mmm: trout in a frying pan!).  Or will the lesson finally take for Travis Outlaw: he needs to do more than hoist up those pretty jumpers if he wants to stick with the Portland Trailblazers.

What do you guys (and gals) think?  Which Travis Outlaw will we see tonight against the Wolves?  The one we saw against the Jazz was definitely one I'd like to see more of...
