    Hello darkness, my old friend
    The Blazers are going to have their own two-sport star? Like Deion Sanders playing for the Braves and then joining the Falcons late.

    Without Crabbe, this is a guy we might need to rely to fill Crabbe's minutes in the rotation.

    If so, we'll get to see if he can truly play as good as Crabbe as some have claimed here.

    Time for a guy who played in less than half the games and only 8 minutes in those, to prove his .500+ shooting is no fluke when it's not garbage time.

    He's a borderline NBA player. The only reason he's still on the roster is as a potential salary filler in trades.

    ...said many Blazer fans about Allen Crabbe 2 years ago...

    Sadly, they were right.

    If Pat does stay on the squad and does these three things, I say it's worth it.
    1. Averages 15 minutes per game
    2. hits 38% of his 3's
    3. plays decent TEAM defense (compared to Crabbe's lackluster efforts)
    If not, he can join my beer league softball team next summer.

    No, the Blazers are going to trade him and he will be waived and decide to go play baseball.

    Well, #3 certainly aint' getting done. And I hate to break it to you but, he can only join your softball team if you move it to Baltimore.

    We should totally waive Pat so we can sign any equally borderline player for the same amount or more.
