    With ZC developing like this, the Blazers are starting to look real juicy. I'm already imagining next season with Collins starting at the 4 next to Nurk. The backups look solid at every position... But MAN just imagine if we could draft/trade for a stud 3... *plays with nipples*

    They take their cues from their so-called team leader. He complains about everything so why shouldn't they?

    Ed Davis is part of our core...I want him to retire in Portland...my second favorite Blazer on this team.

    Are you saying Ed is filling TWO roles for the team? One as a player and the other as a big-man coach?

    Fuck them all! They are fucked up, they won't even make the 2nd Round of the Playoffs, and they started as a Contender to beginning of the Season, PG will leave, Melo opts in, they have no Paul George anymore, but still Carmelo Anthony and still no Cap Space and no First Round Pick, that must be terrible to know your Offense Next Year is Westbrook and Athony the main Time, haha shit :)

    How sweet was the play at the end when PG attacked the basket and was met by Davis AND Collins. Fuck I loved seeing that.

    I know, but some may think he's upset with the team. He's not. Dude wants to excel.

    I don’t doubt Olshey when it comes to the draft. What wings are available though? I’m only caught up on the euros, and Musa would be awesome.

    Whether or not Ed is actively coaching is up for debate, but there's no way he's not leaving an impression on Collins. Hell, the way he plays, I bet he inspires every last player on that roster. The coaches too!

    Musa wont be there at the end of the draft if we get too high a seed. Somebody will take a chance on him. Of course, if we trade up.... :bored:

    Ed Davis reminds me a lot like what Wes brought to Portland. A spark and just a pure dog, toughness. Much like Wes big part of our success as well

    Every team needs a guy like that. Multiple guys like that is even better. It's easy to tell when a team really wants it, and right now, Portland looks like it wants it bad.
