I would have believed you if you said 50 lbs of muscle

Still +1
 
Plumlee and Ed Davis have already added a 3 point shot. Damian is working on the ability to literally fly. He's only able to levitate at this point, but the progress is noticeable.
 
You can't measure the cohesiveness of this team and that will mean volumes as the season progresses. Fans don't get to see what goes on in the Practice Facility but Cliff Alexander dominates at practice and Luis Montero and Pat Connaughton give the starters fits in scrimmages. They could be big time contributors on any other team but it is so stacked in front of them here in Portland that they don't get to show how good they are.

I see them hitting '3' after '3' against tough defense.

Wait...long '2' they say.

Meyer's dog found Tunchi's Pessimism and was seen playing with it at the season ending press conference..... The local liquor store is out of Mike Riley's favorite scotch so he's switching to whiskey...... CJ is releasing a scandalous book about Derek Jeter's love life called 'Homers and Herpes.'

I could hear his voice while I read that. Spooky.
 
Little known fact for you fans...Mike Rice actually works with Dame in the offseason which is where he's learned to drink like a fish..he didn't have the skills as a rookie. Rice coaches him for free food and liquor and is looking forward to another offseason bonding with the bottle
 
Aminu has learned to dribble!
 
"With Pat Connaugton's rising emergence as the future PG of Portland, The front office has put Dame's contact up for trade on the open market. NO candidly admitting they require at minimum 1 st round pick, as Dame's age is no longer fitting the forward movement of youth. NO went on to further comment that they intend to become the only team with a roster that cant drink legally in the state of Oregon, but will be able to still smoke cannabis. As Portland's great coaching and talent acquisition has shown, it seems very plausible that Portland may just be that team of the future...but never the now."
 
Mike Barrett's inner demons are really Sinobas. That makes so much sense.
 
Meyers Leonard has been working on a sky hook shot with his good arm, and I seen him drain 50 in a row from the right block. He's going to be amazing next year, there's almost no way to defend that shot.

Right block, my ass! He made 50 in a row from half court. He's channeling his inner Meadowlark Lemon. If the league thinks Steph Curry is hard to guard with his quick release and range out to 35 feet, wait until they get a glimpse of a guy 7'1" draining 45-foot hook shots. Un- fuckin'-guardable!

BNM
 
Even the rookies are part of the emerging movement even though they don't get much playing time. I like horses and I'm going to play golf and my kids go to school with my friends kids. We have barbecues all summer....when I'm not playing golf. Wake up Rice...you're snoring again!

I use to practice the half court hook to the point i was more accurate with that than a regular 3 point shot, but admittedly my regular shooting form is horrendous. Like a cross between marcus camby and chief catapults.
