    I think it might be his hope for a high PER stat now that he's a defenseless 3rd option.

    It would take both of them to get Love, so that works.

    Made me think of Lillard; they had that twitter argument over the summer about Lake Oswego; funny how he now copies Damian's number and for the same reason being from an "O" place.

    I guess that means I'd be number five. I too grew up in Lake Oswego.

    He took the number 0 for the "Oh shit I'm going to be under the microscope this season"

    Maybe Kevin Love likes the state of Oregon, but preferred UCLA to the Oregon universities.

    Yeah, I mean.... if I were going on a 4-month vacation like Love did, why would you take it in your back yard? Why wouldn't you go to SoCal? I don't care to live there, but I enjoy visiting.

    It would really something if say a Ducks basketball player became a star and sign with the Blazers. And it's a damn shame what happened to that program. Dana Altman made some huge mistakes this last year.

    I think most of us think he's a tool, more than hating him for not going to UO. I've said it on a few occasions that I don't blame him for not going to UO. I do blame him for being a tool, though.

    But I will say, maybe he's maturing a little, as I thought his initial response to Glen Taylor's comments were solid.
