    He just knows how to defend. Our bigs need to take a lesson from him.

    Usually the appreciation threads are reserved for guys who have:

    A) been traded
    B) retired
    C) died

    Not entirely true. Sometimes it seems the thread gets started in hopes the person will soon A) be traded, B) retire or C) die.

    In this case, it is none of the above. I was glad to see Joel back in a Blazer uniform and like seeing his attitude and effort.

    Gramps...

    If only some of the players showed as much care or attitude -- or anything, really -- like Joel.

    I agree, Joel was the highlight of the night for me. Should retire a Blazer for sure.
