    Who is the most exciting Trail Blazer to watch this year?
    LaMarcus Aldridge (5)
     12%
    Nicolas Batum (4)
     10%
    Jamal Crawford (2)
     5%
    Gerald Wallace (22)
     54%
    Elliot Williams (6)
     15%
    Other (2)
     5%


    Just wanted to hear your guys' opinion on who you are most excited to see play this year for the Blazers. For me LaMarcus and Raymond Felton because I want to see what they can do running the offense at a quicker pace. BUT over them I have ELLIOT WILLIAMS! So excited to see this guy play and see his athleticism. Again, what are your thoughts?

    i don't know if i'd say that EW won't play if we pickup Crawford... they've got pretty different playstyles what would stop Nate from alternating with them and seeing who shows up? One might be way more fitting for a certain game it's just gonna come down to who puts it on the court and makes the best impression

    Oh jeez this is hard to choose.

    We've all heard of Nico and his shinny nose
    We've all heard of Wesley who's made out of snow
    But all of those stories seem kinda... overplayed
    But we all know who brightens up our holiday...

    It's Raymond Felton the new point guard


    Alright I'm bad at trying to copy a Christmas song and make it Blazer like but whatever.  I'm more excited to see Raymond Felton and how he'll play as a Blazer.   However, I'm just excited to see the team.  Losing to Dallas left a foul taste in my mouth, and I want that taste gone.  We've got a very exciting team, and could go far as long as Oden stays healthy.

    Sooo many.

    I'm watching out for Batum to make his mark this year now that Roy has retired. Ray Felt and his PnR with LMA, plus his link up with former teammate G. Wallace. Wess to reach a new level, and to see Elliot with his hops and what he can do at the 2.

    Im sparked about the rookie Nolan Smith. I think he's going to surprise some people. Kyrie might have been taken first,but it was Nolan who came up big for Duke when he transitioned to the pg spot effortlessly.

    We are stacked! No injuries, treat these men like babies or whatever it takes to keep them healthy for the love of all that's good. 

    Don't have a favorite but I would like to thank the following: Brandon Roy, for being the best thing that has happened to Portland since Drexler, Coach Nate for proving to the city he wants more than just a playoff team, Paul Allen for his committment to making the team competitive and Chad Buchanan for making smart business decisions with character and the health of the franchise is his best interests.

    Thank you Blazers, Rip City takes on a deeper meaning than ever this year

    Thanks to Larry Miller as well, i think he has handled the media masterfully so far this year, I can see he too really wants a good team

    We've alot more guys with win motors. Wesley's at full speed. Wallace only has that speed. Felton is deceptively quick. Chris Johnson looked nice. Nolan has great potential. Elliott needs to polish his shooting. Armon is starting to remind me of Bayless, without the fire. Babbitt can only play amongst friends. Batum is ready.The Camby man can. We're good. Im gonna miss you # 7. Thanks for the run.

    It's definitely E-Will and not because he's a dunking machine. To see a wing player able to shoot from outside AND create his own shot is a thing of beauty. I know he's nowhere near this level, but the last 2 guard we had who was able to finish with authority in traffic and shoot from outside was Clyde Drexler. I'm just more excited than anything to watch him develop throughout the year.

    I'm very interested in seeing if Crawford can live up to 'the closer' hype.

    I can honestly say that I'm surprised to see that Gerald Wallace is winning this vote. Obviously, he's extremely entertaining to watch but I felt like he was kind of flying under the radar heading into the season. I mean, we added Jamal and Ray, Elliot returned from his surgery, and LaMarcus is now the face of the franchise. But I'm glad the fans didn't forget about Crash.

    I've been pretty disappointed with CJ this year. I know he's really skinny, but he's getting abused on the glass. I hope he starts using his length as an advantage to help him tip rebounds to his teammates such as Camby does.

    CJ is a good help shot blocker, he runs, and can get open for layups. he needs to work on boxing out and rebounding, but he's young, i hope he picks camby's brain all season.

    sign Iggy for 8-9M, Batum at the two, and Wesley off the bench! Draft Steven Adams (who loves contact, grew up playing rug-bee). Sounds NICE!

    Love Okafor, hate his contract. Nenê is sweet too. I like the Wizards. Fan of wall. Also you guys watching Danny Green? Dude is insane.

    Im not impressed with Gortat. Everyone wants him but he seems mediorcre to me. He is the most realistic option since all it would take is the 10th pick, but I think he is old and declining.
