    Jeff Pendergraph will start for the injured Marcus Camby.

    Yes thank god its pre season BUT.... if the words i typed above dont frighten you as a fan or a coach then you either dont want the blazers to win or drank too much blazer kool aid today.

    Jeez though... its like the blazers had to know greg and joel werent close to being ready and they think jeff fucking penderfoul is the answer? he got owned by golden state scrubs last year in the reg season finale.

    This is just a scary thing that could be reality quick with cambys injury history.

    i'm thinking that if the game counted, you'd see a lot of Miller/Matthews/Roy/Batum/LMA lineups. Get the 5 best on the floor. JP isn't one of the 5 best. Heck, I'd almost rather see Dante or Babbitt at 4 and LMA at 5 than LMA at 4 and JP at 5.

    It is preseason, but the words "Jeff Pendergraph" do scare me....a lot.

    In all honesty, I'd rather see Aldridge at the 5 and Babbitt at the 4

    Other than shooting the 3 I'm not sure what Babbitt does better than Cunningham right now. Cunningham himself is a knockdown 15ft shooter.

    I haven't seen a ton of Babbitt, but when I have, I just see a slow white guy.

    In an attempt to save this worthless thread, those uniforms sure were sharp.

    :drinkapint: Can I have another serving of Blazer Kool-Aid, please?

    Seriously dude, it's pre-season...if it were regular season, we'd have LA at the 5.

    I think the Blazers should be kicked out of the NBA for this.

    I agree, and if you were to create a petition for this cause, I would gladly be the first person (outside of yourself and David Stern, naturally) to sign it!

    I was only talking preseason. However, with the way everyone is raving about him in camp, who knows?

    I'm not thrilled about the prospects of Pendergraph at center, but to somehow throw up the best game of his career as evidence that he can't play really boggles the mind.

    You're better than this Mixum

    I like Pendy! I think he gets too much criticism in here. He can board and he can smack people. That's all we need out of him.

    Do people actually think that Camby being injured is a positive? I realize it is only the pre-season, but...

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Perhaps people's positive thinking will actually injure Camby?

    Metaphysical barfo rides again.
