Trailblazer Anagrams


You know, anagrams: you rearrange the letters of somebody's name to make new words.

Here are a few I've found for our team:

Nate McMillan - "In mental calm"

Travis Outlaw - "Raw. Vital to us?"

Joel Przybilla - "Jolly Blazer, P.I."

Greg Oden - "Engorged"

Martell Webster - "Brawler's mettle"

Andre Miller - "Mild learner"

Rudy Fernandez - "Rudy = Far end zen"'

Blazersedge.com - "Blog seem crazed"

Portland Trailblazers - "'R Darn Polite Ball Tzars"


Can anybody think of any more?

This pretty much sums up what blazer fans have been thinking for a while.

I think "A rebel whiner" really fits Wheels to a T

especially when he slaps the table at the bad calls during the game. When I turn the radio on during a game (which is rare) I can always tell how the Blazers are doing by the tone of Brian’s voice

That should become his new nickname. Hilariously appropriate.

Rudy Fernandez

Blazers Broadcasters Mike Barrett and Mike Rice re-enacted NBA referee Scott Foster's controversial goaltending call on Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, who was defending Oklahoma City Thunder All-Star forward Kevin Durant, during this week's edition of Blazers Courtside. Remarkably, no one was injured during the taping of this segment.

OK, that should just about wrap up the goaltending discussion.
