Blazers sign Chris Kaman

It's some what unorthodoxed but I kind of liked the Lopez and Kaman dynamic that was played out in the second quarter and I think it allowed some of the starters to rest just a touch longer because of it.

 

It's a twin towers that kind of works because both can shoot okay out to 15 feet, both can roll, and both have decent hands. These are traits that make them more finesse 5's than many centers. I wouldn't run it every night all night, but it proves that Kaman can come in for either LA or Rolo respectably.

 

Good points. I think it works defensively and rebounding wise as well. I know during one offensive position they dominated the interior going for the rebound or tipping in a miss shot. Kaman is probably better suited in playing away from the basket similar to the way LA does with Robin playing the inside when they are both in. But I think it works. I woulldn't want it all night long like you said but during stretches and later in the third into the fourth might be fine.

 

Thanks. I wish they would play dueling banjos when he enters the game or "scores".

 

Cue the Dueling Banjos soundtrack

 

you beat me too it Elton

 

I'd actually like to hear Wagner with the Valkerie theme blasting and some Viking helmet on Kaman when he goes to the scoring table to check in

 

I'll enjoy not having to cringe everytime RoLo or Damian leave the game. But if Blake or Damian get hurt, things could get interesting at PG....

 

MAN MEAT

 

THey need to sample one of those Finding bigfoot dudes howls to play over the PA when he scores.

 

Haha, I see him as more of a Son-of-the-South Chet-type big brother to Napoleon Dynamite. If the NBA had any sense they would have him wear the ultimate MoonBoot high tops and a Chewbacca bandolier emblazoned into his jersey. And then have the dancers do this routine...

Air Sasquatch has the post moves and a decent mid range shot. I must say that he's surprised me so far!
