    So we have perhaps got the "Niger Tigers" with Aminu and Ezele both from Nigeria, maybe Aminu helped recruit his countryman

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I'll put it this way: Ezeli is a good player to target, so I'm fine with/glad that they're targeting him.

    I'll wait til they actually sign him, if they do, and see what the numbers are before I freak out about the salary.

    Well the Mike Rice firing makes more sense--need your announcers to pronounce your own players' names correctly.

    That's another thing in our favor; there is now another fairly good big available for any team that still needs a big; supply and demand!

    Honestly, who cares what they pay him... He provides Blazers with the muscle/defense we were sorely lacking in the post... He is only 26, legit 7' with 7'6" wingspan, and champion experience... Some of you will never be happy... GREAT MOVE NEIL!!! Thank you!

    Notable quotes:

    "Blazers bringing in Ezeli to talk, 'and I'd imagine' go through a physical."
    "Still considering other teams, but likes Portland. Gained respect for Portland in GSW series."
    "Blazers worries about his knees, so Portland will take a close look at those."
    "Several other teams still in the mix for his services, but here now for Portland."
    "If his knees are stable, he's a good option for the Blazers."
    "He's not sure how long he'll be in Portland and not known who else is in the running for him. He said he 'got a one-way ticket', could be just for tonight, could be through the weekend. He bought a one-way ticket." (Seems the player does have to fly out on his dime.)

    Guys, there ain't nothin really certain here or perhaps even "really close" yet IMO

    Sounds like a good line for a fluffer in gay porn.
