If Joel and Greg come back around the same time, how will Nate work them both into the rotation? That will be interesting.
can't play all 3 of the C's at once...though I'd like to see the Roy/Batum/LMA/Camby/Oden lineup every once in a while.
If the 26th of Nov is Joel's date, then I think we can safely expect Greg to be back within 1 month of that date. Merry X-mas, Blazer fans.
When they both get back, the Blazers will struggle with some offensive continuity. It will take some time to adjust. The defense will be deeper as LMA can get a little more rest. But the offense will take a few weeks to work them in. Right now I think Cunningham is playing very well. He plays smart and helps to spread the floor. So I hate him to lose minutes. It won't be easy for Nate.
I like the way Dante is playing too, but damn it'll be nice to have too much depth in the front-court for a change. But really we probably shouldn't get too carried away about Joel, we still don't know what he's going to look like out there after a year away from the game and a damn serious knee surgery; I suspect he'll be getting not a ton more than 10-15 minutes a night.
The best player on the team at setting screens will be back. Been missing watching Joel. Will always be one of my favorites.
It's never too early ... but you might want to consult with Rastapopulous, I think he may have already pre-emptively trademarked the term.
