One of my favorites of all time. [video=youtube;ANwGdmmJJa0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANwGdmmJJa0[/video]
absolute warrior. Embodied everything about the City, and what I want from the organization. (except for low scoring totals )
Man, the moobs on that one kid... Anyway, how funny is it that Joel Przybilla had a better career than Greg Oden.
The whole reason we're surprised how good Lopez is, is that we expected another Przybilla, a nonshooting bruiser there to start arguments. A couple of years ago, Joel chose the Blazers over a Miami Heat ring, so we repaid his loyalty by dumping him.
I wish Joel well, great guy and a work horse back in the day. I think the Blazers showed loyalty bringing him back the last year he was here and honestly he had no game left at that point or when he joined the Bucks. He was clearly shuffling to get up and down the court but he was a rock defending some legit centers throughout his career. Rolo has some of Joel's talent for playing the 5 but is clearly more talented offensively.
I don't necessarily think we should, but I wouldn't mind one bit if we did. He definitely deserves some sort of permanent recognition somewhere in the Rose Garden.
