    There are some players on the verge of moving up the list in Blazer history. I thought I'd post them.

    • Wes Matthews is 18 3-pointers away from matching Damon Stoudamire for 2nd all-time. He is 74 away from matching Terry Porter at the top.
    • Also on the 3 point list Nic trails Wes by 35 (at #4), Damon is #7 and Steve is #8.
    • LaMarcus is 15 rebounds away from matching Buck Williams at #4 on the all-time list. Mychal Thompson is another 17 rebounds beyond that, Jerome is 200 beyond so is likely within reach this year. Clyde is #1 with nearly 500 rebounds more than LaMarcus.
    • LaMarcus needs only another 113 points to tie Terry Porter for #2 on the all-time scoring list.
    • LaMarcus' place on other all-time lists: #9 for Personal Fouls; #11 for Turnovers; #6 for Blocks; #14 for Steals; #18 for Assists; #7 for Free-throws attempted & #5 for Free-throws made; #2 for Field-Goals Attempted; #2 for Field-Goals Made; #4 for minutes played & #7 for Games Played
    • Only three players have played more seasons that LaMarus - Clyde 12, Jerome 11, Terry 10. Jim Paxson & Larry Steele are tied with LaMarcus at 9 seasons.

    Interesting... Nic Batum is 8th All Time in Effective FG% as a Blazer, and LaMarcus is 3rd all time in lowest Turnover %.

    LaMarcus should become the all time leading rebounder this year too (you mentioned Clyde, but not that it's likely he'll be passed).

    Given how well he plays against Minnesota, you might want to get tickets...
