    I really REALLY wish we could've got Kidd-Gilchrist. I read somewhere that Charlotte's pick was available to anyone willing to take Tyrus Thomas off Charlotte's books. I wish we'd done that. Even if we cut Thomas it would've been worth it, but I also think Thomas can play.

    If we'd done that, we could've let the Wolves sign Batum. He might be more talented than Kidd Gilchrist (and certainly a better shooter) but he'll never have the drive MKG has. MKG is a Noah-type player and those are worth their weight in gold.

    The lockout has always proven to be a killer to many NBA players who rely on their teams programs to get/stay in shape.

    Pumped! Be hard to get work done today. :)

    Get that hack outta here!

    Nic:

    What have you approved on this summer, what different about you?

    I'm more mature , more vocal, I'm a leader, not a young guy anymore

    How do you like the new coaching staff?

    I like it, like his vision, had dinner with head coach, the coaches are on the court. We're young, but I like what the coaches say we're gonna comptete no matter what. I'm excited for a new fresh start.

    A_am seems like a cool dude. I am assuming they get a favorable ruling on Williams and keep A_am

    LaMarcus Aldridge compared the oncourt chemistry with Damian Lillard to that he had with Andre Miller

    Wesley Matthews said the oncourt chemistry between Damian Lillard and LaMarcus Aldridge has been noticeable in summer scrimmages

    Canzano has some pretty good interviews today and a guy live at the PF. It's nice to actually hit October and know that we're less than a month away from the season.

    Best Blazers news I've read since Summer League ended.

    Lillard has never played with a big man who can score anywhere inside the arc. Aldridge has never played with a PG who can run, penetrate, dish and shoot from distance.
