    This change will happen because 76er fans are so docile. The league used to count on fan uprising to prevent the long-term strategy of openly losing. It worked till now.

    Nick Young is chucker. Not sure they're missing much.

    I'm so excited for NBA to start. Watching my Blazers is great.

    If I was Victor, I'd do anything I could to get on San Antonio.

    We can't keep falling in love with NBA players that don't pan out just because they where a Blazers uniform. If they suck the suck.

    In the same light we cant keep putting up articles of lakers just because it's about Kobe when Kobe is past his prime.

    But if they can dribble for 5 lapse and make goat milk, can they still eat a tuna fish sandwich?

    Nobody can stop guys like Lebron and KD, but I still think Victor's length could be effective against those guys when Nic is in foul trouble.

    Also a defensive line up with Nic, Wes, Robin, Claver and ?(depending on the match up) could be effective. Victor plays great help defense and is mobile and long enough to guard multiple positions when teams cause us to switch at the end of games. Would love to see him part of the rotation. Even in limited minutes.

    Fascinating read on the biometrics trend in the NBA and where it might lead:

    A good excuse made by a dirty player five years too old to make a difference.
