    Judging by your posts and avatar I'm guessing you can't be older than 17.

    I don't think Leonard even picked up a basketball before the Blazers drafted him. It took him two years to figure out how to box out. We'll end up giving him a big contract this year.

    Counting on what?! He has the talent to be a top 5 pick. That doesn't mean he's the next Shaq! Lol

    I've met him and he's a really cool guy in person. He's also older than me! :)

    Hey - don't knock the avatar. It took ages to get him to move on to *human* girls. OSU does that to people.

    He's not really a dick, he just plays as one on the internet.

    There's 14 and 15 year olds can provide good insight though. But while we're at it I guess we can guess each others ages...

    Incorrect, on ALL counts... except for "damianmillard" who is, in fact, 12!

    Ha! Remember the first decade of the new millennia when like bands like ummm Arcade Fire (is that it?) were going to rule the world. Owh! That's the choice of MY GENERATION! Comic book movies rule!

    Just spent 10 minutes trying to figure out what it was that I said... I think you were responding to oldmangrouch. I am a grouchy old man, but grouchy old men are like snowflakes, no two alike.

    Just watched some highlights of Alexander from the hoop summit in Portland and I'm pretty sure Olshey was sitting in his regular seat. The more I watch of Alexander the more I believe he could be a center, especially in today's game. He plays bigger than whatever his listed height is.

    This board has reached devastating new lows as far too many posters are far to willing to criticize the signing of camp invites... apex mistaking a camp invite for the GM's concept of a home run signing. SMH.

    It's even worse because I think this is one of those players who will last a long time in the league as a quite valuable player with some very nice contracts along the way. I think this is a case of GMs acting like lemmings based on flawed analysis and hysteria type madness.
