    If we've learned anything through 3 preseason games it is that Anthony Davis is going to win the MVP this season.

    Dunno where to put this, so I'll put it here. Two ex-Blazers among the "Top 5 incoming stars" in the Russian League.

    Batum will be high on my fantasy draft board. Contract year, undervalued due to bad previous year, not much competition at his position, and now this?

    He should get more playing time but not a lot more. They were already planning on having him at SG not SF.

    My comment was directed more at increased responsibilities on both ends moreso than an prediction of increased PT.

    I guess the Batum trade looks pretty good for them now (maybe). I guess you could argue that if MKG is out for the year then it is a lost year, in which case maybe it would have been better to hold on to Vonleh and Henderson. I feel bad for MKG. He seems like a really great guy and has sure had his share of struggles.

    Jan Vasley is a player.

    Robinson is as erratic as ever.

    Glad to see T-Rob getting play time. Hope he can get some during the regular season.
