    who do you think will be the player(s) that will come back from the lockout out of shape and never the same player as before?

    here's hoping it's not raymond felton

    Huh?

    Felton looked fine in the Oregonian photo of his full body.

    I'm guessing DeJuan Blair, although he was terrible to the point of being benched in the two Spur elimination games.

    It's a contract year for both Miller and Felton, so I expect them both to be in reasonable shape.

    Winner!

    Somebody needs to take Chris Johnson to Five Guys 3 or 4 times a week, and Nic needs to start eating more ribeyes.

    Apparently he's put on 15 lbs already. But based on this rather funny exchange, I'm skeptical.

    Another Chris Johnson tidbit- he has put on 15 lbs. of muscle since the end of the season

    @johnhollinger John Hollinger
    In <2 months? Cue sound of me rolling eyes. @pdxtrailblazers Chris Johnson tidbit- he put on 15 lbs. of muscle since the end of the season

    pdxtrailblazers Trail Blazers
    @johnhollinger yeah, it's 15 pounds. no idea if it's muscle

    i think i could really see michael beasley get super lazy without structured training around him all the time. hopefully andrew bynum pulls a kemp this offseason, although i don't know if kobe would allow it to happen

    To be fair, it's part of the process: add bulk, then tone it.
