    Could Wes Matthews possibly make the All Star team? That would be amazing.

    How is Wes a journeyman? He played one season with Utah and has been with us since. Mo Williams is a journeyman. Wes is not.

    He didnt even make the ballot! Outrage. Coaches are out of their minds if they dont at least pencil the guy in.

    If he keeps his 3 point shooting over 40% all season that is what will really matter. 55% and 49% probably won't last forever.

    while I completely agree with the bolded part assessment, I don't think his signing does much to dispel the reasons Portland isn't much of FA destination (poor ratings). His signing was obviously a unique situation.

    Anyway, your main point of 3 cheers for Wes is spot on. I'd note that the past two years he's battled leg injuries... healthy legs are a bonus when slashing. Every player has their ups and downs with their health, hopefully WM has a nice long stretch on the up side as this is fun
