    Dallas Lauderdale failed. He'll never live up to his brother Priest.

    And when someone obliges HCP when he asks for followers, but doesn't get followed in return, that kinda sucks.

    Serious question for you, HCP:

    Portland has a nationwide reputation for being passionate and knowledgeable about basketball, both the on-court stuff (as evidenced by the Hollinger types) and off-court (like Storyteller and others). Yet Olshey came out in July and said:
    Does the organization expect that fans don't care about anything that doesn't happen between the lines? Or are they attempting to manage expectations? Or are they unfamiliar with the cottage industry that being a full-time Blazer fan is? Or are they saying that fans are qualified to voice pleasure or displeasure about how a coach or players are doing, but not on the front office staff?

    Apparently Batum has forgotten how to shoot threes.
    Scott Williams is an assistant coach... for the Idaho Stampede!? Wow, knowing Phil Jackson doesn't count for much.

    What they're saying is our opinion doesn't matter in the slightest, so quit bitching to Paul Allen on Twitter about over/underpaying for Nic Batum already.

    The internet has made assholes of us all.

    Price is really well spoken. Dame can shoot.

    Nic has put on 8lbs in 10 days?! Wow.

    Understandable given his meals look like this.

    Too many carbs and Orange juice is just as bad as soda for sugar. Steak and eggs and fruit, YES!

    #Blazers rookie Will Barton did not practice today because of a right hamstring injury. Barton said he's day to day.
