    Maybe because of the way he writes the article? It's not the SUBJECT of the article, it's the way he writes it.

    Maybe you should read it someday.

    I'll grant you game 5 and maybe game 6, but I think you'll find in most cases that one of the guys is scoring below his average.

    Like I've been saying, CJ and Dame are essentially the same player.

    Though I do think articles like that are lazy. Why not give a realistic trade idea?

    To make Team X bite... the trade would have to be @ least close to fair i.e. CJ, Clownzano, Dame, + involve GS to send Steph Curry to Team X & in return Team X would send us Luc longley then maybe Team X would accept:tongue2:

    This.

    Do you really think it hasn't occurred to Olshey to consider moving CJ for another player not quite so similar to Dame? Do you think that he hasn't placed and fielded calls from other GMs to consider this and other options? Canzano is so fricking annoying because he writes as though he's just had the most original and brilliant of thoughts and the Blazers are so stupid that they haven't immediately done it.

    Remember when Canzano used to bitch about how unstable the Blazers' management was? Now that Olshey has restored order, Canzano has to find something new to bitch about. There are a couple of differences between Olshey and his quickly-departed predecessors:
    1. He keeps pretty much out of the public eye during the season.
    2. When he makes a move, it's usually a good one.

    Canzano has to be Canzano, I suppose, but man is he annoying.

    I posted the info below a year or two ago. Since nothing has changed, I will plagiarize myself.

    Labeling the Clown’s job description as columnist or journalist is not a good fit. Plus, it insults every legitimate columnist and journalist

    After comparing the Clowns behavior to every known psychological disorder, the best label appears to be troll. However, he has taken normal trolling far beyond the internet into radio and newspaper trolling. Plus since he is paid to troll, that makes him a Professional Troll. I did a search for images of trolls, and sure enough, up popped this image of the bald clown.

    [​IMG]

    However, there is more to the Clown’s talents than just Professional Troll. He uses very elite and advanced baiting techniques. He can bait anyone into a senseless argument, on any subject, and take any side of the issue, and always declare himself right. The only requirement he uses is, any trolling topic he starts must increase his ratings, no matter whose lives he disrupts. The only defense against his elite baiting skills is to completely ignore him.

    Clownznao’s correct job title should be: Professional Master-Baiter Troll.

    So much this. There is no reasonable scenario that Olshey hasn't thought of before Canzano read the idea from some internet poster.

    There's not really anyone else in the league doing what CJ's doing right now to be honest. Steph is the closest but it's a bit different and CJ isn't on Stephs level in many aspects of the game.
