    You must be pretty new around here if you believe I really care much about this statement.

    B would use his body and strength to rub off the defender. I see this kid as being fluid, if that makes sense. Looked good, hope he can continue against NBA players. As long as people are patient.

    And your language didn’t offend me or your message. I don’t take this place serious bro, this ain’t real life. I think the only thing I take serious is people throwing unrealistic expectations on my Blazers preseason every year and when they don’t reach those, they make this place miserable every fucking night complaining about why we didn’t beat a team we had no reason beating. Thats what I take serious.

    This is real life! @THE HCP celebrating one of his daughter’s goals like a nutjob in the stands last night!

    @THE HCP freaks out when she scores in warm ups…he’s excitable, that’s all.

    Hey H, what's with the avatar pic of LeBron grunting out a dook, and contemplating if Anthony Day to Davis is going to play all year.

    That's cool and I'm not one of the people that will make this place miserable when we're losing. I just have some hope (not expectations) that Shaedon can start making a positive impact on games this season but if he takes longer to develop, I'll be chill about it. I think our win total will be around 46 but if it ends up being less than 41 like you're predicting I will only complain if there was no competent effort made by the front office to improve this roster and get us more wins.

    Realizing this might be a tough season. Trying to figure out how he can trade Russ for 3 current allstars.

    I can totally see HCP going full soccer mom and buying a minivan.

    Then drives himself to a Starbucks and demands to speak to the manager.

    It's the pace. Both looked slow and then changed speed for a really fast burst. I agree that B-Roy was a lot more physical at getting his body into the defenders to control where they can try to get his shot. But the pace and the way it is slow, methodical and then a burst is where the comparison stands.

    If it’s his little hesitation move, then yes I can see that. CJ is a master of this as well.

    I think that's from having a lot of experience though. Roy was pretty seasoned when he came into the NBA.
