I'm torn on this one, but after Thursday's win, and with Dallas losing last night, it really looks like it is about seeding right now. So, while I'm not ready to completely give up hoping the Suns lose, having them beat Utah would be nice tonight.
Looks like Hill is having a good game. He's an unrestricted free agent next year, I wonder if the Blazers would sign him? He's going to be 37 at the start of next season. Pippen has some pretty good years for us, but really started to taper off at around 37. We probably would not do it because of Batum and Webster, but I think he'd be a very nice addition. And ouch to the Jazz fans if they blow a 21 point lead at home to lose to the Suns.
Grant Hill is not Scottie Pippen and has never been Scottie Pippen. Pippen may be the most undervalued Hall of Fame player in NBA history. He defended Magic Johnson, he defended Gary Payton, he defended John Stockton, and he kicked all of their asses and won titles. He was a freak.
@pdxtrailblazersFolks here on press row at the RG are currently more concerned with Suns/Jazz than they are Blazers/Griz
And then some. LaMarcus is becoming a powerful player. He doesn't even know how good he is around the basket. LaMarcus will be stronger than anyone ever hoped Sheed would be.
