    I think it is interesting how popular Gerald has become among Blazer fans in his short time here. He has probably become my favorite player already, due to his intensity, toughness, athleticism and skill.

    I was thinking he has probably moved pretty high on the most popular current player list.

    Nic was my first but G.Wallace has replaced him - Nic is a very close second now.

    Only because this poll is for the current roster, not all-time players. Otherwise it'd be a landslide.

    Batum. I've liked him since the first home game in 08 vs. San Antonio.

    I bet at this point last season it would have been Camby!

    I voted Nico out of loyalty. But yeah, G3 is the man.

    I'm still very much in the honeymoon phase of the Gerald Wallace acquisition.

    I think it's the newness factor for Gerald. We've seen it before with Rudy, Damon, and Derek Anderson. Of course, we've seen it come crashing down later on but I'm not saying that will happen with Gerald.

    Of our healthy ones - it's Nico for me. That kid in the open floor is poetry in motion. I still think the world of Roy and hope Oden can come back strong - but I really appreciate Gerald Wallace as well. His handles are a lot better than I expected!

    I think it's more about Fairweather Fans. Wallace has been a nice addition, regardless.

    Definitely worth a poll though. I'm sure there was a similar one about Camby last season. Ah, I remember the day when the Fairweather Fans were chanting "MAR-cus CAM-by" at the RG late last season. Has LMA ever received such high praise?

    LMA was already locked in long-term. Marcus was a free agent at that time. I think fans wanted to make him feel welcome.

    I'd vote for Oden if it was an option. As disappointing as he has been he is the only player on this roster with a chance of being a superstar.

    I voted for Crash, he is exciting to watch and can contribute without having the ball or plays ran for him. I believe he is getting some extra love for being the new guy so it'll be interesting too see what everyone thinks in a year or two.
