    You have Anfernee Simons looking like Matisse Thybulle Chris!

    Meantime, here's a J. Bayless tribute:

    I'm looking at the Blazers bench, and wondering why Cronin hasn't rolled out the tank? The reserve unit is loaded with raw talent. The young guys could gain much needed experience, if the Blazers start focusing on the hunt for ping pong balls.

    They wouldn't be bad games to watch. We have an example during the ice storm game in Sacramento, when Dame/Grant/Simons couldn't go. Nassir Little had a solid 26 point night, and the kids played with good effort. Sacramento got the easy win, but it was fun seeing the younger players have a run.

    Celtics have really been struggling of late...but with this Blazers team I am quite sure they will put on a masterclass. I'll be drunk at my local Irish pub regardless.

    Bringing in the stealth defender. If the Celtics think he's Simons then they will have them right where they want them.

    Why is there a guy that is the average height of a Blazer big man in the opening post of this thread?

    Best Irish movie. Also one of the best music/fictional band movies ever.

    Boondock Saints 2 was a terrible movie. I couldn't get past the first 20 minutes. They mucked up a cult classic trying to rehash similar funny scenes from the first movie, entirely out of sinc from whatever the 2nd movie's storyline was supposed to be.

    Just read Justise Winslow went though a bone marrow concentrate procedure to help with lingering ankle pain in March and will continue to rehab for a couple of weeks before being reevaluated.....(tanking)

    I was excited to watch the legends broadcast, until I just read that the panel will be shown on the screen during live action. I freaking HATE that. Why do they need to take up prime screen real estate during the game? Plus it's distracting. I guess I'll be opting for the regular broadcast. Ugh
