    I almost said that, but I believe Hood only played one year in college.

    EDIT: He played at Mississippi State in 2011-2012, and at Duke in 2013-2014.

    Ok guys Zach was playing well vs Detroits reserves, but only got “benched” because Drummond and Griffin came in. I wouldnt have minded if they kept Zach in their next to Nurk, but it was pretty clear that Stotts went to his starters because Detroit did. It wasnt a punishment to Zach...

    Why, out of everything in the house, does Lucia insist on sitting on my knitting pattern?

    I agree Portland should be aggressive, but aggressive isn't Turner and Meyers, it's CJ and Zach

    besides, Blazers couldn't afford Dame-CJ-Griffin-Nurk

    But they can afford Turner and Meyers, who shouldn't be playing a single minute and who will make $4M less than Griffin next year?

    I have no idea how you can say the Portland can't afford that 4-man combo.

    I don't think Zach can Guard Blake, but I wouldn't mind seeing him try, it's not like Harkless or Aminu can guard him either.
