    Chris Johnson impressed the hell out of me tonight. That kid has hops. Put on a few pounds of upper muscle and he's a baller. That standing dunk he threw down over a Wizard = teh spooge.

    Chris Johnson definitely showed he has NBA talent. But it was garbage time against the worst road team in the league. If he can be effective and make an impact during meaningful minutes, then I'll be more excited. But he's no doubt a project who's worth investing in for now. He's already 10x better than what Ha would ever be.

    I'd like to see him after a summer of working out with the Blazer trainers, hitting the weight room, and learning from Buck Williams and Marcus Camby.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Batum is pretty dynamite when he's aggressive. He needs to get into that mode more. He has star potential, he just needs to assert himself.

    I'm really loving the core of Aldridge, Miller, Batum, Wallace and Matthews. If Oden can return next (non-lockout) season, it's still a very exciting core of talent. Roy's also a wildcard...if he can learn to play within his new limitations and be effective in about 20-25 minutes of play, he could be a super reserve.

    From the 8 min mark in the second quarter to the 9 min mark of the fourth, we went on a 60-25 run.

    So you want him to have a stroke and possibly die? Awesome.

    Don't get me started on Nico...I'm in love with a Frenchie and I don't care who knows it!

    His game looks Jamaal Wilkes smooth. I can't believe he's only 22.

    You know all of the HD casts are synced up with the radio broadcast. So you could listen to the radio instead.

    I think he needs to be a little more solid though. That should come with time though. I worry about when we have to resign Nico. Will we have cap room and all that?

    That's not entirely true. It's synced up with the over-the-air broadcast, but if you are watching through a cable or satellite service, there's still lag.

    I guess I haven't tested it with 708. 737 was what I was going off.
