    Hope Barton is okay. His wrist seems to be bothering him after getting fouled earlier

    Our bench players scored 78 tonight. If we can get that from them every night we'll score 160 a game!

    Agree with the sentiment. I've always been more of a "million dollar body, ten cent head" idiom kind of guy though.

    I think Crabbe might win the backup SF position.

    For the life of me, I can not figure out why Crabbe doesn't get more run. He had the frame, the shooting touch, and everything else one would want. I just think that he needs more time on the court to develop. :MARIS61:

    Me too (replay), unfortunately they showed Randle making a bank shot instead.

    I watched the game and the guys who really had their stock rise to me were CJ, Meyers and Crabbe. Impressed with all three, tonight.

    I was thinking Spencer Hawes or Channing Frye would be his ceiling

    I was able to watch the game. Anyone else annoyed by the sound of the rims? My god they rattled even when the shots were all net.

    Looks like Julius Randle is going to be pretty good. Not all star great but definitely worth where he was picked in the draft. Dude has skills.

    As for the Blazers...... CJ impressed me. Although I still prefer him as a SG. Let him concentrate on scoring and not worry about running the team. If Blake stays healthy....no problem. But if he does not, I still say get another PG. I still do not like the CJ/Will committee.

    Meyers impressed me as well. He really looks comfortable on the offensive side of the ball. No denying that he can shoot the freaking ball. Passing also comes natural to him. No worries about him being a turnover machine. As for the defensive side......still not good, but I would not say he was horrible. He is not mobile enough to close out on stretch 4's. But at least he did not look lost out there.

    Unpopular as it always is, Meyers is really improved over the last two seasons. Crabbe has looked better than I've ever seen him tonight
