I hate to say it, but that was a really good article by Quick. That video is a must watch too. Napier pounded like 10 in a row. Damn, they look good....
This is easily one of the most likable teams we've ever had. You can see the chemistry. I still think it boils down to two people: Dame and Terry Stotts. Dame is the leader of the team, so he sets the tone with the guys, but Stotts really gives him the freedom to be the leader. You can tell that Dame and Terry have great chemistry. I'm so glad that Paul and Neil were able to keep our group together. I am extremely excited to see how these guys develop together over the next three or four years. Keeping Harkless, Crabbe, and Meyers was huge. I think the cost will payoff.
Well, if it's by Quick, shouldn't the title read: A peek through the blinds at the culture and chemistry that makes the Trail Blazers click BNM
Almost, but not quite. Being responsible for every member of the roster, Neil absolutely deserves as much credit for the chemistry on this team as Dame and Stotts do.
First thing I thought was A thoughtful and fair article designed to gain trust so that I can write a shit-stirring pile of bullshit.
I'm a Blazers fan, first and foremost. I root for laundry. But it's such an added bonus that the guys wearing the laundry are these guys. I love these guys.
Also, they didn't show very much of him, but Harkless' shot looks so smooth and effortless. Like, just a flick of the wrist and it's there. I'm so ready for more Blazer basketball!!
That's what I noticed too. Harkless' shot looked GOOD. The other thing was Napier was taking all day to shoot the ball, like lining up for a free throw. He won't have that kind of time in a game, LOL. But he really wanted to win that thing. Competition is good.
Great article but Quick is starting to become a huge homer for the team. Nobody can ever say this guy is drama creator anymore.
