facially, I'm trying to think of who AJ reminds me of
does anyone else see Iron Mike Tyson when they look at Johnson? Maybe it’s someone else, that’s all I got for now
When reached 40 years of following Portland basketball you have, be as passionate of the Trail Blazers you will not!
LOVE THE HAT
WNAT AN EXACT COPY
Blazers basketball? Just basketball you say? More like a way of life
I've been looking for something like that for a while now...

They have Blazers hats in about 20 colors—ducks colors, beavers colors, gang colors, camo pretty much anything you want.

So hard to find good Blazer hats.
I wouldn’t mind me one like this.
With all the the fans on Bedge, I’m surprised their aren’t people designing hats.
Being a Blazer fan is not exactly healthy.

He’s got stones and the will to win. Great young player.

I'm definitely driving his bus....
Since the first game in the summer league, when I saw his unnatural poise, pass first mentality, excellent vision, and outstanding D, I knew he’d (a) make the squad and (b) play more than any 2nd round rookie ever did for Nate… This dude is a winner… Love his game.. Wish his heart, desire, and enthusiasm was matched by the rest of the squad…
Love me some AJ, question though.
Anyone notice that while listed as 6’3" any time he is next to a 6’3" player (nash) he looks considerably shorter? not that it really matters, the dude is a baller.
In one of the photos he looks shorter, in the other he looks like the same height.
My favorite teams are the Blazers and any team that is playing the Lakers.

Awesome photos.
The Steve Nash ones definitely took me by surprise. I’m glad AJ is putting time off the court to the learn the game.
