Trail Blazers recall Armon Johnson from D-League's Idaho Stampede

[SlyPokerDog]

Yeah! Road trip saved!

 

[Nikolokolus]

Well ... I hope he's been working on his towel waving game.

 

[Boob-No-More]

Thank god! I know I'll sleep better tonight.

I can only assume that this means that Nate is REALLY pissed at Nolan.

 

[julius]

did Nolan do something?

 

[e_blazer]

Trade coming soon.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

did Nolan do something?

Not on defense, no.

 

[julius]

Not on defense, no.

he should be unhappy with almost everyone on the team then.

 

[RoyToy]

Not exactly the kind of player that will make up for Aldridge's lack of rebounding

 

[PapaG]

Not on defense, no.

He has a DRTG of 102. For the sake of comparison, Felton is at 105, Matthews is at 104, and Crawford is at 102.

It's his horrific ORTG of 97 that might have him in Nate's doghouse, although Felton is at 93, and Crawford is at 96.

Perhaps Smith is going to get more time, and Felton/Crawford are going to be on a shorter leash.

 

[PapaG]

Bottom line is that Nic needs more time on the court this year.

This doesn't make a lot of sense unless Nate and the Blazers are using it to possibly motivate Felton and Crawford

Maybe there is a deal coming soon?

I'm sure they're trembling.

They need a bouncer to keep Patty out of the locker room and Armon seems like the most motivated.
