    George is secretly in our corner and this was a double ploy to fire up Lillard and simultaneously show the rest of the league that Portland is a good place to play cause we got each others back. Coach included.
    Karl is a Zero people!!!

    Not according to Dwight Jaynes. Last night after the game on Talking Ball he claimed sports books don't sell well and Karl would be lucky to make $40,000 off his book. If even remotely true, that's peanuts compared to the millions he made coaching.

    I take it Dwight wrote a book that didn't sell well?

    He's just being a coach, but in a different way - having his guy's back. Protecting the face of the franchise. Building a bond.

    That's not a book, it's a basketball bible.

    If only we could transplant some of Stotts' fiestiness into some of our more placid players. (I'm looking at you Meyers and Crabbe)

    In regard to Karl - very unprofessional - he must truly be done with the NBA.

    It's probably because CJ wasn't our starting 2 guard

    Friday Night Lights was a hell of a read, great movie and pretty good TV series.

    How do you know? You aren't in the locker room nor the training facility.
