so, who is your new favorite Blazer (however you define that)?

New Blazers:
Crawford
Felton
Nolan smith
Craig Smith
Kurt Thomas
Elliot Williams
 
Favorite new Blazer? Kurt "Steady As She Goes" Thomas or Eliot "I Believe I Can Fly" Williams. I need to find song title nicknames for the others before I can favorite them.
 
Elliot skywalker Williams for me, but I like Nolan Smith a lot as well.
 
Now I want to take back my vote. I hate that shithead!!!
 
Too soon to know, but I want it to be both rookies. A surprise back court for years to come? That would be nice. Williams with his leaping ability will be the fan favorite IF he turns out to be any good. Lot of players to choose from as they are quality guys you want to root for.
 
YES! Good old Smitty! Batum was my favorite before, and now it will be Smitty as a back up.
 
Chose Felton, I'd like to wait and see, but from what I saw Felton looked smooth and in control while seemingly making our offense more efficient. At times it was akin to watching ice skating...I've never thought I'd say that about a basketball player lol.
 
E-Mail for his upside, but Rhino for his nickname alone.
 
Elliot skywalker Williams for me, but I like Nolan Smith a lot as well.

HA I like the Skywalker nickname, think someone else has had it but still thats pretty sweet. Maybe I'm partial since I loved Star Wars as a little tike.
 
E-Mail for his upside, but Rhino for his nickname alone.

Email is good nickname too! He already gots 2 sweet nicknames! Rhino got cookie monster nickname tooo!

Why cant we get one good nickname for Aldridge after all these years. All I ever hear for him is Gazelle... or LMA which sounds retarded if you speak it or LA which everyone thinks is the city.
 
For immediate impact on what I've seen on the team, I pick Felton as I think he is one of the reasons for the faster pace. However, in a longer term view, I'm more excited about EWill.

Gramps...
 
I voted Elliot Williams -- I think he should be Elliot "Teen Wolf" Williams.

Williams. I'm not excited by any of the others, so it's him by default. :)

If he can hit the perimeter jumper with any regularity, though, it's definitely worth getting excited about him.

Ed O.
 
Williams is still very much an unknown and most people here are likely basing their opinion on his sheer athleticism, swagger, and quick first step.

Can't say that I'm not one of them. I hope he gets some playing time and surprises everyone. Heck, we could have some dark horse rookie of the year candidates. I've thought highly of Nolan Smith since he was at Duke. Although I was disappointed with the pick over Faried, I was also scared of passing on Nolan thinking that he would be a 2nd rounder to develop into a solid player.
 
Babbitt's not on the list, so I'm forced to veer from Jerry Sandusky and go with Kurt "Kermit Washington" Thomas, whom we wouldn't have needed had not some IDIOT gotten rid of Juwan Howard.
 
Crawford. Not because everyone was happy we got him, but because of who he replaced and how down to earth he is. He has talent and he also brought in a good personality and maturity. For which we lost when Roy retired. He's going to really help this team on the court and help carry on what Roy has done off it.
 
I voted for Jamal "black guy" Crawford!
 
I'm going to have to see more of Air Elliot and Nolan Smith before I can answer that. I'm rooting for both of them.

Edit: I took the question to mean favorite "new" Blazer, rather than new favorite. My new favorite is my old favorite: Nico.
