    Noah is pretty much always injured equals the Blazers should not go after him. The blazers tally of injured big men that have paid off are not in the positive...I don't remember exactly where I saw, I was cruising rumors and came upon it.

    I swear sometimes you just make up these names to see if anyone is paying attention. This one sounds like a villain from a Star Wars movie.

    Star Wars? Sounds more like a Young Indiana Jones tv show communist bad guy.

    No ref is gonna do that. Any fan screaming for it should stop. But here's the thing:

    Look at the lead ref (ref on the end line). He counts to 3 and PROPERLY breaks his count when GA's shoulders turn perpendicular to the rim.

    He doesn't have his back to the basket for 5 seconds.

    God, what a petulant child. Can you see any of these current Blazers draw so much attention to himself?

    been seeming like the lakers are really on the hunt of late, with our luck they will probably land all the things we were hoping the blazers would get :rolleyes3:

    They don't have much to offer for Noel. Cannot offer their picks before 2021 or something crazy like that.

    The Lakers also are hoping to get Noel etc. without breaking up any of their young core.

    Funny that Crabbe and Noel are both improving their stock at exactly the same time. The two that have been suggested to be involved in trades for each other.

    Neil: "Look Allen, I know you're looking forward to moving to Philadelphia and finally getting that full-time starting gig you've been angling for, but with the way Nerlens has been playing, if you want that trade to go down, you're going to have to play a hell of a lot better than you have been."
    Crabbe: "No problem Mr. Olshey. I've been holding back a bit, but if you can promise me you'll move me, I'll give you everything I've got."

    Having lived in (west) Philly for 2 yrs, I feel like people hate on that city too much. Center city area is awesome. Very liveable.

    Proximity to NY of course is also awesome.
