Yeah, I do say so. When he does it consistently, then he will be known for it.
No, that's an extrapolation of your own making. We're talking about Batum not Clyde. If we were, Batum should never be talked about within the...
Despite the examples you posted PapaG, Batum is not explosive. He's fast, lengthy and not a bad jumper - that's how he get's those chase down blocks.
100% agree. it's frustrating watching Batum dribble left - then - right hoping to get around his defender. He looks for an opportunity to pass the...
Blazer Fanatic added an intelligent take on things to the board - sure a little aggressive at times, but unless there's a post that has been deleted,...
Yes, usually in a going through the motions kind of way - on their way to providing Aldridge a clear-out. Where they promptly watch.
One thing that bugs me about the Blazers the past few years is how inorganic they play. It's post up Aldridge - sit back and watch. No movement from...
With this in mind you would think they would forego giving 4in5 day trips to teams like Portland and Miami - who already have the highest flying...
I see what Gretta is talking about. I guess when you play for a crowd like Portland - where they are invested emotionally more than other teams, the...
How does a fractured finger affect someone's defensive effort? Batum 'decided' that he was the 2nd best SF in the league. He then 'decided' not...

When Batum takes it to the hoop, instead of his usual passive stat padding way, the Blazers go to another level. McCollum looks good so-far. He...
Shifty shift·y (shft) adj. shift·i·er, shift·i·est Distinguished by frequent changes in direction: shifty winds. Able to accomplish...
Agreed. You can see the distaste on his face whenever a coach tries to give him instructions. Also, people say how unselfish he is. I disagree. He...
Love what Lopez has brought to the Blazers. Hard worker, and quickly becoming a favourite because of it.
Wes is fairly solid at defense; mostly due to his effort. Conversely, Batum is at best average due mainly to his lackadaisical attention, and also...
That we did, despite not addressing needs on the floor. We are lucky that Lillard is coming out of his shooting slump.
Disappointing that we didn't see TRob in the Pelicans game. He was exactly what we needed, what with everyone missing rebounds and box-outs. I...
The defense was bad against Minnesota, but it has been average for most of the season anyway. We lost because our stellar shooting form fell back to...
Brilliant! - We could have used these when McMillan was in town. I'll get my people to contact your people to get this thing on the production...
