    That would explain why my right arm is so much bigger than my left. But I don't play sports.......

    Anyways....on to the highlights. Because greatness deserves to be seen by all:

    I'm all lefty. Like you wanted to know. But now you have a terrible image in your brain running on a never ending loop. Imagine I'm crying in this scenario as well. It will really set the scene.


    You're welcome.

    Anyone who doubts how much quality additions this team needs, imagine them without Nurkic in those highlights.

    I honestly don't think we need THAT much if Nurk plays 75+ games next season with Dame and CJ.

    I imagine you on loop giving reach-arounds.

    That's all I see when I see your name.

    Underrated part about Collins is his all around game will allow the gameplan/system to stay the same while nurkic is off the court. Gonzagas offense is built around the pick and roll, so Collins is coming in with a comfort level there.

    If I'm Portland, I start Collins at PF next year. That slashing style and lack of need for the ball in his hands with Dame/CJ/Nurk....

    He won't need the ball, but when he gets it, it should be for slashing dunks.

    My Fender Jazz Bass was a killer on the neck extending discomfort into the deltoids after long gigs. After a while a chair was needed. My favorite is a Schecter Elixer Bass due to its balance and weight across the muscle groups. When I played my fathers 1937 Conn tenor sax, that beast reminded you that you were holding premium brass.

    You should swap out that old bass for an MTD 5-string with an asymmetric neck. ;-). My favorite bass.

    I REALLY hope he beats out Vonleh for the starting spot. Even if he doesn't earn it during training camp, I hope he earns it by mid-season. The bar is not high - all he has to do is play defense and not get his shot blocked around the basket.

    I kind of hope Vonleh improves enough that there is no comparison who should start. At the very least it gives us a valuable asset to trade before his next contract. I am ok with our rookies easing into the lineup. He will get his chance this season regardless due to injuries.
