    Forget Zach. What if Monty Williams (former Blazer assistant) and Lionel Hollins (former Blazer great who never got a whiff of the Blazer job) BOTH take their teams farther?

    Josh McRoberts has the best NBA career of any 2007 Trail Blazer draftpick

    I hope Boston sweeps Miami. That will definitely be the beginnings of me feeling better. Just throwing that out there.

    I hope LeDouche wins it all. It will please me since it will piss off the most laker fans and kobe=nutriders.

    I want the Celtics. I hate the Lakers and Heat more. Mostly because I actually have to deal with Heat and Laker "fans".

    Celtics would be good too since Shaq will win another ring and even up again with Kobe, which would bug the shit out of him. And L*ker fans too.

    The only thing worse would be a former Blazer assistant coach eliminating us from the playoffs.

    Memphis is now the team I'm cheering to win. Don't mind seeing Z-Bo doing well at all.

    What turned it around for Z-bo was his passing. He's no longer a black hole on offense. He can pass now.

    Yep. It was his only real weakness (other than his fondness for strippers... err, the 3-pointer).

    Quite a scene following tonight's game. Z-Bo sure seems to have a lot of supporters. Surprisingly, many of those part of the Spurs organization...including Pop.

    McMillan couldn't teach him this, so he must have found a better coach. How difficult.

    Bah, Zack grew up. He is no longer under the microscope that is the sports media here in Portland. We have no idea if he still rolls with the Hoops Family, hits the strip clubs or anything else that in NY would make him cool..

    His game is much better all around, but I am still ok with the way things worked out. As far as finding a better coach, well I would like to blast you, say that the coach had nothing to do with it. Fact is you may be right. We had six games in the playoffs to figure out how to break the zone D that killed us, and failed. Could a different coach have done something to get better results? I have to think so.
