    Johnson needs to be cut right now. He let that Laker put his arm around him walking back to the locker room
    F that.

    No, Vonleh should still be the starter but Biggie should get solid rotation minutes and maybe he could reach the starting unit if he plays well enough.

    They will ease him in or it will probably piss of the regulars. Once it becomes obvious I am sure he will be starting.

    I wonder if our 3rd Quarter in SL is as bad as it is in the regular season.

    really depends a lot on if we move a bunch of players but as is....not till at least after the allstar break, but I do think he'll crack the rotation early.

    Wow. That play where Swanigan got the rebound, brought it up the floor, and delivered the impressive dime was awesome.

    11 points, 5 assists, and 8 rebound at halftime. Bring on the triple double Biggie!!

    How do you know his offense is better playing off good NBA guards? Does tgat nean Biggie will average 25/15 when playing next to Dame and CJ?

    I thought MVP Bayless would start and he couldn't beat out Blake.

    Completely off topic, but someone should tell the Blazers medical staff that they now make band aids for black people. This isn't 1974.

    They might be hard to find in Portland, but you can order them online.

    I'm getting tired of the constant Laker talk and Lonzo Ball talk. This is unbearable. Now at halftime they're interviewing Ball. Ugh.
