    Is this just a Blazers media thread? I can put these in the Around the NBA thread actually.

    Look at that! No ad patch! Well, other than the Nike advertisement...
    (Ugh that "Portland" typeface looks awful...)

    It's titled "Media Day" not Blazers so why not?

    So is Hayward that tall or is Horford that short?

    I think Hayward's hair just makes him look taller than he is. His shoulders are a couple inches lower than Horford's. Gordo looks pretty jacked in that pic, though.

    Yeah it's crazy because he was built like Layman as a rookie.

    Hayward's hair is like two inches tall, and he's standing a bit in front of Horford to our angle.

    Yea it does look awful. To me it just doesn't match the pin stripes or something. I can't put my finger on it

    Plus, Horford is a fairly undersized center. I can't imagine many guys go from being a PF in college to a starting C in the pros -- usually it's the other way around -- but that's largely situational. He's got good length and hustle to hide the lack of height, much like Olajuwon.

    Yeah, that's part of it - they either need to take the red outline off the numbering or add it to the lettering. But "Portland" is already so cramped for space that adding the outline would complicate things. But regardless of spacing, sizing, or outlining, the lettering is just awful.

    In fairness, if it was in tinfoil you wouldn't be able to see the contents. The real measure of his abilities would be to sell a turd secured in a ziplock bag. That would impress me much more.
