    I said Real Blazer. I was pleased to see him leave the team.

    I asked that because I wasnt a fan when he was a Blazer. I really don't know. But if he lead the team in double double for over 20 some years, that's pretty damn good

    Sidney Wicks was a very talented player with a very bad brain.

    He dominated the ball and really never helped the team. When he left, he really never made it any where else, but help the Blazer a great deal. They became a team and won a Championship.
    Wicks had stats here, a rude arrogant ass with stats.

    Very nice to see us get off to good start in that game. Getting am early lead and playing with energy really reduces my stress/swearing.

    Too lazy to look it up but I believe Lenny Wilkins insisted that ownership get rid of Wicks, maybe that didn't happen until Ramsay coached.
    He was not a player any good coach wanted.

    It was Ramsay that told Inman to move him. Didn't both trading or anything, just sold him. Of course they became loaded that summer with Lucas, Moses Maloney and more pick up in the ABA
    dispersal draft.

    Well that thought did come to me while Zbo was here. That guy is helping the team about like Wicks!
    But Zbo was not quite the cancer Wicks was. As a matter of fact, I think Zbo could have been salvageable with the right coach in place. No way with Wicks.

    I think Lenny wanted to, but management wouldn't. And then Ramsay came in and said they had to get rid of a couple players, and they did. I might be remembering that wrong.

    Fun fact about Wicks. His #'s peaked in his rookie year. I think he's the only player in NBA history to have his averages go down each year he played (in scoring).

    I dont get the big deal. These players arent all stupid, its easy to just go up to their medical staff and get the staff to explain how the cast works and how to hit it.

    Don't think anyone would argue with you that Nards, Lopez, and Batum didn't play well...

    But that's a lot of hateraide right there you're drinking.

    In 22 minutes, Steve Blake was a +22 on the court last night. Said it during the game but last night was the best game of this season for him.
