Should be good. Terry gives good interviews and dan is the best in the business at interviews as well.
On right now. Dan telling Stotts that the defense is no good and jump-shooting teams can't win in the playoffs...
Then Stotts starts talking 2011 and it is a different generation and that Dan needs to get with the times. (not listening to the show, my own ad lib)
Yeah, Stotts talked about playing to our strengths in defense to being a jump shooting team. DP talked bit about Paul Allens ship and Stotts interview he had on his ship during the Summer Olympics. Talked that last year we had only 4 solid players and the difference this year is we upgraded our bench and team chemistry better this year. Was a basic and short interview and nothing we haven't hear 100 times before. Great to get in minds of national media though.
I was actually annoyed by the fact that DP was so focused on PA's yacht. Also seemed like he spent more time talking about George Karl than about the Blazers.
That wasn't a backhanded slap at Hickson . . . that was a direct in your face, you are not a solid player, slap at Hickson.

It's a toss up for me as to what was more annoying, Patrick calling Portland "MY Blazers" on two occasions, or talking about Allen's ship more than basketball and Blazers combined.
He does that when teams begin to outperform expectations. Did that last year with the LA Kings, then during the baseball season with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Basically his way of saying that we're a good story and he's jumping on our bandwagon.
