    Wheels went nuts tonight and yelled "DO IT! DO IT! DO IT TIL YOU'RE SATISFIED!" after a big basket by Dame. Can anyone post the clip?

    My money is on permenant. I think that's always been the plan but Chris was given time away following the death of his father. Olshey made that statement last offseason "Chris has something to think about as he drives across the country", I think that something is whether he wants a position on the coaching staff, and I think the fact that we have not filled Hughes' vacancy yet gives credence to the hypothesis that the Blazers view Kaman as that guy.

    Looks like it already has. He's turned out two solid performances in back to back games.

    I wonder if Meyers has a court in his backyard that they practice on? Or his living room, at least? Garage, maybe?

    That would be awesome if Kaman becomes the big man coach. Ideal.

    Holdahl said he had some business interests in Portland

    Kaman doesn't strike me as the type that would be interested in coaching, although I'm sure there'd be a spot for him here.

    I really wanted Damian to get to 60. I'm kind of surprised that no Blazer had ever gone beyond 54. That's definitely a record I don't want Damon Stoudamire to have.

    It was good to see these guys beat a good team soundly without Nurkic, but I don't know if it was a good team effort as much as it was Lillard's Herculean game.

    The defense was really good and a total team effort. Seven guys played amazing defense and one guy played amazing offense.

    What's the verdict on black jerseys/white socks at home? I could get used to it.

    The Dame colorway looked like tap dance shoes... interesting combo. Gotta say the black at home is good luck for us now!
