    Did Kanter and Giles get into it? Watching the Denver broadcast and it looked like it on the bench.

    Yeah, they don't give a shit. Denver on the other end with a huge lead and not giving an inch on D

    When your point guard shoots 20 times with only 2 assist you got a problem some of that is ego by CJ.

    Man this forum goes by the motto, "You can never overreact to a preseason game!" The effort tonight is pathetic but the game does not matter. Yeah it would be nice if our guys showed more but there really isn't anything to take away from this besides the fact that a preseason game 9 days into training camp doesn't mean shit.

    Kanter is so bad right now. Gotta play Giles over him.

    cj's ego isn't anywhere close to kobe/dwight. the analogy was a reach, at best

    The whole Blazers team is a victory cigar because we've been getting smoked the last 3 games.

    I think you're right CJ's ego to game ratio is way higher than both of those guys. They had a reason to have an ego, both were all NBA several times and one was an all time great. CJ's not close to either's level but his ego is way too close to theirs. The guy actually thinks he's a good defender and obviously thinks he's god's gift to offense.
