Wow we have think about going after ex lakers or what...Kaman, Blake, now Davis....who we gonna get next Lin
Clearly the Blazers are starting over. The good news is they are doing a damn good job of it. Success depends on expectations and the lens one is looking through. The rebuild is starting off great.
Watched some youtube of him. I thought he was amazing until I saw a free throw. Still like his game, blocking dunks and dunking on people.
Wheres the old poster raptors fan master shake? He used to say all the time ed Davis was better than lma.
+> Plumlee fences himself down low in the paint too. Maybe we can be a Defensive team?. All we need is a coach who wants that as a primary game plan.
He calls himself a hustle player but I don't really recall him playing like that in Toronto--granted I didn't see a lot of him in Memphis or LA afterward. He's the kind of player that generally does good things on the court but never blows you away. If you look at his rookie season vs. last season you'll see his numbers are more or less the same. I guess he's kind of an average player and that's why LA didn't make it a priority to keep him. I don't know if you have him penciled in as a starter but I reckon you will get a lot more out of him if he does start. I mean he doesn't come off the bench and ignite a game. In terms of him being very good defensively I don't actually think he's very good at anything in particular, just average to good, but a jack of all trades could be preferred to a master of one.
I would much rather us establish being a top defensive team first. Defense is all about timing and teamwork. If we can zero in on being good defensively, that means our chemistry is really coming around.
Reports out of SL practice are that defense is our #1 priority. It should be, Stotts will find a way to put points on the board.
