I see: Blake, Kaman, TRob, CJ, Will the Thrill, Meyers, Freeland and Crabbe. Good turnout! Sidenote: TRob! I didn't even know he was allowed to practice yet. His hand has a strap on it:
TRob is so jacked, hoping he breaks out this season. He'd be huge for us if he could give us 15-20 consistent minutes of high energy D and decent O.
ITS HAPPENING!!!!! Blazers are playing basketball together! All the bench is in there knowing that if the blazers are to improve and go deeper in the playoffs, it must start with them. Except DWright, who is already losing the battle for minutes. I really like Blake CJ Barton T-Rob Kaman Nice energy, smaller lineup can out hustle other second units. Has deadly 3 pt shooting with blake and CJ and thrill who will keep defenses honest from outside. Kaman and T-Rob should be able to control the boards. Look for T-Rob to up his defensive presence this year. I think he will average upwards of a block and a half off the bench this season. Love it!
I wonder if he's used this injury as an opportunity to work on his left hand? If so, it could be a blessing in disguise.
Just look at the size of his hands and that cheesy "come mess with me" smile. Gromit is used to it, he's got that "not this shit again" look on his face.
