    He has a date with MB's mom at 10 and a night cap with HCP's wife at 12. Gotta impress the ladies, right?

    Now that you mention it, Batum was the first guy that I heard say that...actually compared him to Brandon Roy when Crabbe first got to start for Nic's injury

    I love Batum but Vonleh is going to make that trade look just as bad as the gerald-Brooklyn one in the near future.

    Batum's two games against Portland encapsulate Batum at his Batumiest. First game against Portland was his 4th best game ever. Tonight might have been his worst game ever (EDIT: it was his 3rd-worst). You get both when he's on your team. Batum giveth, and Batum taketh away.

    I remember Nic making that comparison. Didn't see it myself, and still don't; but I remember it.

    Crabbe nowhere close to roy handles, but could be a poor man's klay potentially

    I wouldn't trade him for a lotto pick. Maybe for #1 or #2.

    I was shocked when Nic mentioned Roy..I don't see it either. He's going to be a better 2 guard, sf than Wes was....he's better than Wes right now

    Crabbe is no Roy, however you can see that he has soaked up a lot of knowledge over the few years he's been here. You can see Wes, Batum and CJ in his game. He is a smart player, better keep him.
