[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Yeah I see it now. It wasn't there when I posted.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

The Stache will be on the Net's SL team.

He hasn't hung it up yet?

[Mediocre Man]

Already irritated that the Blazers aren't giving Lillard every second at PG. I understand it, but I still don't like it

 

[Nikolokolus]

So which video coordinator/AV guy is going to coach the team?

Wait a minute?! HCP!!!

Dude, HCP makes Felton look anorexic. Come on now, FAMS!

Deerrrrr. You said "coach". Either way, I can't imagine him being able to spend enough energy on coaching.

 

[Natebishop3]

I'm looking for marked improvement from Babbitt and I'm hoping for big things from Lillard.

If he's as good as he's supposed to be, he'll take every second at PG. I'm guessing similar to how Roy came into summer league and became the man.

..........THE HCP will coach the Blazers in Vegas...... FAMS!

Why do we want them proficient in Mexican hat dancing, fucking donkeys, rolling burritos and edging?

 

[ABM]

Why do we want them......edging?

I've always considered HCP to be a bit edgy.

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

I've always considered HCP to be a bit edgy.

Funny. I've always thought of him as round. :MARIS61:

It's good to know that HCP is in shape.

 

[Mediocre Man]

So if Barkley was the Round Mound of Rebound, would the HCP be the Enorme Ese of Replay?

 

[blue32]

Total bummer that Elliot cant play...

 

[Natebishop3]

Total bumer that Elliot cant play...

Yeah

 

[jlprk]

Maybe Barton = Elliot.

Same college, pick #40 in a deep draft vs #22 in a weak one.

If Babbitt could get a quicker first step, it would make all the difference in the world

 

[Nikolokolus]

I still think he's got a wiring problem ... maybe some extended run last season during garbage time (ie. March and April) gave him a little more confidence that he can build on, but guys like that usually can't flip that around.

 

[Mediocre Man]

If Portland signs Hibbert I am going to Vegas for summer league. That is my sign.

Hopefully I will be drinking one of these

66 oz of happiness

Not sure if it has been posted, but I heard on The Fan that the games will all be on CSN.

Hoping they are all on NBA tv as well

HCP should pay you for the rights for that name.

I thought it was brilliant when I posted it, but got no response to it. Thanks
