    I still have a lot of hope for this kid. He's got all the tools to be something special. I would love Aldridge to try and take Aldridge under his wing and show him how to work on his game.

    That's tough to do. I wonder if Aldridge can do that....

    We need an actual big man coach, not just LA showing him the ropes.

    Is that true? I don't live in Portland, so maybe I just missed the memo?

    Go Blazers

    My sense is that Leonard may indeed be a contributor to the Blazers and in a big time way. They sure need him to come through.
    Robinson is not likely to fill that role.

    But it seems like a strange take on a team that is playing well enough to lose a game to NO and turn around and beat OKC at home. Now that is a ball team with a little moxie, much more than has been the norm the past 10 plus years.

    I don't think I will bitch about a damn thing, especially who Stotts decides to play.

    LaMarcus has the wingspan, but does he really want to sniff Aldridge's armpits?

    Ha! I had forgotten how long it has been since I saw a cigarette ad in a basketball arena, lol...

    Are you stationed at Ft. Campbell? I was there a LONG time ago...
