Trying to look on the bright side. Everyone is looking at Afflolo as the guy to step up, but this is Nick's opportunity to shine. The last 5 years Nick has ALWAYS had Iron Man next to him to defer to as the go-to 3rd man on the team. He has to know now that it's on him to score more. The way Nick is looking lately he can get us 15-18 a night as long as the onus is on him to do so. Wes getting hurt is a similar situation to the way BRoy leaving propelled Lamarcus into becoming a beast. Wes is the man, and it hurts like hell, but I'm still optimistic. Go Blazers!!
