If the damn replays get any worse, you'll be the one going to Boise

This is great news.

After watching Claver last night, I actually have a better/different impression of him than I had before, despite the fact he can't seem to make a shot. He's bigger than I thought. He was very active and played hard. He seemed to like banging into guys. He seemed smart. The only thing he didn't do was make shots. If Claver can play some SF for us, moving Nico to SG, and playing Leonard at center instead of Hickson, with LaMarcus at PF, that's one loong team.

I do know Vic is the first player to play in the Olympic Gold Medal Game and then play in the NBDL.

I also think Nolan Smith is the first NCAA player of the year that has been whistled for failure to get the ball past mid court in a timely fashion.

Our Euro stashes are now Idaho stashes.

We're like that pirate who keeps moving his buried treasure. Except the buried treasure is poop.

Pretty sure he will.never hear the end of it.

Meyers goal tend and failed dunk were head shakers as well.

...he is also lucky that the Blazers are thin at PG -- otherwise his ass would be in Idaho, long-term!

He might get a full time job there next year.
