If that video is accurate, he always blocks a shot every .89 of a second. Notice how he can't play without his headband? What's in it?
Stoked is the right word, mook. Myself and some other guys I know have been wanting the Blazers to get Wallace for years. I can't believe that day is here. He is such a perfect fit for what the team needs right now. This overachieving team just got much better.
That would be great. I seriously think this is a good thing for Batum and I expect Crash, G-Force, G, or whatever people want to call him to make Nicolas a better player. Nico is still only 22, and has never really had a vet at his position to mentor him. Wallace by all accounts is a very grounded, focused dude. And strong. Maybe he will drag Nico into the weight room with him, LOL.
Nic said in his interview that he views Wallace as a role model and that he will learn from him. I also liked the comment Nic made about Wallace that he plays for 40 minutes and "never gets tired".
Not to be too much of a homer, but the dude has to be as stoked as I am, for his new team and his new fans.
Detlef in a headband was freaking hilarious. If I remember correctly, the game the entire team minus Sabas wore headbands was at NYK. And we got killed. The team never did it again, collectively. That's how I remember it, at least.
I loved that Wallace video except for the first 20 seconds. It's the first 20 seconds I fear as a Blazer fan.

Hmmm...Gerald didn't wear one last night in his debut. The Nate quote above may have a different meaning, for example: "He wears one; it shouldn't be a big deal if he doesn't wear a headband now that he is under my rules." According to Blazersedge, in regard to playing without a headband last night, Crash said: So it actually sounds like somebody told him, or at least suggested, that he not wear a headband. It's interesting as Wallace's quote contradicts Quick's tweet.
"If it'll make you play better and calm you down, you can wear 2 headbands," said Nate on Courtside. He said he will talk to Gerald about it, though.
If any statement contradicts Quick's, it is correct. It's like a litmus test for legitimacy. Quick makes Canzano look well-informed.
