    If Fernandez were this good at age 20, it would be unfair.

    Still, cool to see the Blazers getting some hype.

    There are few sports columnists I despise more than this Phil Jackson mouthpiece. Personally, if he thinks highly of the same players I do, I need to reevaluate my position on the player.

    Always remember, Rosen said LBJ would be nothing more than an average NBA player.

    Am I wrong or isn't Rudy like 23 or 24? That article claims he's 20. I think he is older.

    He also called Brandon Roy a "flop" during his rookie year (after it was already obvious he was a candidate for ROY).

    I enjoy good Blazer press, but I don't take anything Rosen says too seriously. I'd argue he's right here, but in the same way a broken clock is.

    Except a broken clock is actually right twice a day. Are you actually ready to give him that much credit?

    Ooooh. Good point. I don't know if I'd be willing to go out that far on a limb.
