    I offer an opposing view and get attacked by the sunshine and rainbows crowd for not viewing a player the same way they do

    I'm not the one whining

    Oh you poor victim, you. You brought up Leonard's offensive game, then you say that you like defensive centers. People called you out for it. Deal with it.

    I didn't bring up Drummond in this thread first, so there's that.

    But as far as what Drummond has to do with Leonard? Let's see.

    I think people bring up Drummond because of the fact he actually has a skill set you would love to see your young center have.

    Exceptional rebounder
    Great shot blocker
    Tough in the paint
    Finishes great around the basket


    Meyers Leonard

    Bad rebounder.
    Atrocious defense.
    Soft in the paint.

    It's the contrast in styles. One plays like a center. The other plays like a 7-1 SF.

    I didn't bring up Leonard's offense, lol

    There was a comment that Leonard was one of the better offensive centers in the league. I basically said that was false. I commented on something someone else brought up.

    Nice try, but I see right through you.

    RoyToy, what now, if you were GM, how would you deal with our current back up center?

    Do you have amnesia?

    Leonard clearly has an offensive game. His stats show it. You seem to get off on bashing certain players, though, and trolling people for answers. When did Batum catch a reprieve from you? Or, now that I mentioned Batum, are you going to go apeshit negative on him, too?

    Statistically, he was, given the minutes he played.

    MODS - can you please change this to the "Meyers Leonard Catch-all Thread".

    Every other thread these days seems to degenerate into a thread bashing the back-up center for the Blazers. These are the same people who complain that players don't want to stay in Portland, by the way, because it's too small and a fishbowl.

    Lol at you clearly ignoring the fact that when you read that thread I commented on a discussion that was already going on about Leonard's offense. I did not start it.

    What's even better is you trying to use it against me and say I'm switching positions about now liking defensive centers.

    Someone is reaching.

    Leonard shot a higher percentage around the rim than Drummond did

    So there's that

    Whatever. You said he has "0" offense. Clearly you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, and are just posting to bash yet another player. A player who if he becomes good, you'll trash if he doesn't want to stay in Portland, with the idiotic and unrealistic fanatics helping push them out of town.

    It's threads like this why everyone hit on Kass instead.

    He doesn't really have an offensive game, yes. That is a true statement.

    Better finisher around the rim than Drummond though, which was one if your "positives" in his favor

    Doesn't matter. Only defense matters for center, now.

    I didn't agree with you on anything, other than SlyPokerDog being a troll.

    You clearly said "if he becomes good"

    Thanks for showing your hand. You obviously know Meyers Leonard was a bad player last year, but have been tying to hide it all this time. It's funny that you actually agree with the people you call trolls.

    Keep trying!
