    Yes, but with media days going on, it's no longer the offseason.

    Media day and the Blazers have their first Injury Report. Starting to feel like basketball again.

    Naw he will pout as soon as JJ call his lazy ass out. He won’t get many touches either.

    When LeBron or Luka are doubled on a pic n roll with DA, you don’t think he’ll get the ball? Shit he got it every single time on pick n rolls with scoot….. and scoot wasn’t even getting doubled.

    There is still an issue with his attitude. I wish him well but seriously there was just something out of place. I know you can’t comment directly but I’m sure something at some time made you think twice about that guy.

    1) I’ve never been a fan of his, but if used right he can be very affective/effective. KD and Book are NOT leaders. They are all about me kinda teammates. I think DA will respond to ‘Bron and Luka for some reason. Just feels like it.
    2) DA had the respect and love from ALL his teammates. He warmed up the room when he came in. I never saw or heard anything negative. He was always very cool to me. You can tell when dudes are good people when you are on the road as much as we are.

    There have been players on our team in the past who I see idolized by fans and members on here that makes me sick to my stomach. Some complete jerks!

    That’s always good to hear.
    Wish him all the best.

    Just so you all know (And I realize the majority on here don’t watch anything BUT Blazer games) but the first preseason game tips off in 133 hours and 58 minutes exactly. Just set it to record on NBATV FAMS! Cheers!

    DAMN FAMS - actually used both words correctly.

    Sure seemed like Durant was the leader of the USA team that had Dame on it that won gold.
