    Well, ESPN is always right, so this must be true.


    I'm actually curious what the thoughts of Blazers fans are on Jonny Flynn's ranking though. They have him #386, under Luke Harangody. Has he really fallen that far?

    (BTW - I started a thread on the NBA Rankings in the NBA forum. I know that's essentially become a Blazers' sub-forum these days, but it'd be nice to see posters branch out and post about general NBA opinions outside of the Blazers' forum.)

    Flynn is worse than #386, he's terrible.

    At least Babbitt hit 3's unlike Crawchuck for the season and Luke didn't get injured. And Babbitt made more points than Flynn.

    Leonard is quickly becoming my favorite Blazer, which is saying a lot since I hate American white centers. he is goofy, but at the same time has a mean streak in him. He also seems very genuine. I hope he becomes an average center in the league, and not one of the many great white hypes that came before him. His either or on blazers tv was very funny. It's easy to root for any 7 foot pro athlete who says he likes bubble baths over showers. [video]http://www.nba.com/blazers/tbtv/video.html?videoID=3899[/video]

    I can't take the blame on that one! I'll let somebody know though.

    Yeah, I wasn't blaming you, I know you produce better quality than that. PS your picture is the funniest I've ever seen you have. I really hope it's true.

    Name one American White Center who has Leonard's size and athletic ability (not many 7 foot players can do a between the legs dunk).

    He's a hair under Greg Oden when it comes to Athleticism scores.

    Compare their numbers here:

    I'm rooting for Leonard too, but he seems pretty green from what I saw of him in Summer League - his instincts as a defender are going to take awhile to mature.

    Yep, Leonard is a bit unique. He's big and white, but definitely not a stiff. He has crazy athleticism for someone his size.

    Yeah, he's raw, but he's got the basic tools and seems to have the desire and work ethic to get better. I look forward to watching him develop.

    No you don't. It's wrong. Justify it however you want. It's still rude and opens the door for other bs. Doesn't matter who you met. I am pretty sure anyone who is calling someone 'kid' is getting called 'asshole' when not around.
