    Armon Johnson looks like Eric Snow with muscles.

    Loved seeing Oden with that big shit-eating grin and a basketball in his hands. That picture justifies the entire thread, even without the other good stuff.

    I'm sure someone will attempt to point out that it was a grimace just from trying to jump. But I agree.

    just so I have it straight, that is T-rex-armed, small-combo-guard Jerryd Bayless capping 6'9 backup center Jeff Pendergraph, right?

    oh dear. I think that qualifies as being "sonned". I'll have to check, though.

    Yeah, that's Buck doing some serious capping. Hilarious. And worrisome.

    Just got back from practice and am limited on what I can report. Don't know what the team wants out there and what they don't. Saw a lot of positive things, but since I'm a homer, take it for what it's worth. 5 days til game 1, can't wait!

    If you had to pick one player you were most pleasantly surprised with, who would it be?

    Why even post this? Limited on what you can report? Don't know what the team wants out there and what they don't? Saw a lot of possitive things? I mean seriously, HCP, WTF?

    I'm sure they will have footage up on Blazers.com in an hour or so.

    Armon's game is not only a lot like Eric Snow he looks exactly like him.

    JP should be out doing what he planned this summer: busting three pointers and dominating.

    I actually think that picture is the tail end of Buck going up for a layup, and Pendergraph flying in from behind, grabbing it with two hands, soaring under the backboard with the ball, and, just to show off, on his way down, tapping the ball on the underside of the backboard. All Star.

    / weak attempt at humor.

    ...who didn't scrimmage. And might not even have shot free throws. So what was impressive - a new tat?
