    Do you think Nate will use Wallace in a way that will maximize his strengths? I know he is new to the team and it will take time to get him into his natural flow, but my question is will Nate and his rather slow conservative coaching style hamper his strengths.
    Wallace is a slasher, he can create off the dribble, and he plays fast, but from the first couple of games he's played, it seems Nate is using him as a spot up shooter. I worry about not letting him loose, does anyone else?

    Right now I am not worried at all.  Nate will observe his play over the next couple of games and determine how best he sees Wallace fitting into the offense.  So far I don't see anybody else on the team being blatantly misused so don't see why it would be any different with Wallace.

    i dont care what the blazers announcers say. or how his 3pt % is with the blazers. wallace is not a 3pt shooter. he lets the defence off the hook everytime he takes one.

    i found it funny how mike rice said "hes been working on that and itt's actually pretty good now"
    than he said "his 3pt shot is soo weird looking the ball spins the wrong way on his release"

    ala his shot is ugly and it's not one of his strengths.
    and yet 90% of blazer fans take what mike and mike say as fact. why? becausse they're """knowledgeable"""

    I am a fan of defence.

    Batum wrist wasnt hurting. If it was hurting that bad then he wouldnt have played.

    Yeah I was one of them *blushes*. I was never a diehard fan of basketball until the 2011-2012 postseason. I could name every team, but I always forgot two. Kings and Blazers.

    Yeah, he was tripping with that Scottie Pippen reference. Nowhere as good as him, BUUUTTT, I think he can be, if he plays like a man. In Euroleague, you are taught more about finesse, and the fundamentals. He needs to put a little more muscle on, ...

    I think what Stotts is doing is superb. His plays are great. I remember the only play he ever called for Meyers Leonard, against the Bobcats. Great movement, got LMA a good mid range look, got Batum a decent three look and the got Meyers way down ...
