    In fairness, why would we remember anything about the preseason performance of a scrub that remained a scrub?

    Let's all just agree to huddle up on Christmas Eve and discuss whether St. Neil Olshey has given Blazer fans a shiny new BB gun or a lump of coal. By then we'll have a meaningful body of work to base an opinion on.

    Harmless, Aminu and Crabbe will be very solid wings. I seriously love this team and think they will turn a lot of heads come reg season.

    I see a more defensively talented team so far...for whatever the preseason is worth..it's been good and hopefully it just gets better. I think Stotts will play more guys than he did with LA, Wes, Nico era

    I watched a Jordan-led Bulls team go down to a Blazers team featuring a teenage rookie called Jermaine O'Neal in the Pyramid in Memphis. Where's the total nerd who can name the date and produce the boxscore?

    Jermaine was drafted the same year as Kobe, in one of the best draft classes of all time. 1996

    89?

    93?

    Do you guys even remember Jermaine? lol

    He was taken in the 96 draft with Kobe, Steph, Ray Allen, and Iverson, so it would be fall of 1996.

    Moda personnel have to drop a huge replica of King Crabbe from the rafters when Crabbe scores his first triple double
