    So this year we are all aware of the new up beat tempo that Nate has the Blazers running. I believe this up beat speed is exactly what the blazers need to force others to play our game. However, this year is the wrong year to have it. With the condensed new season, that means less rest, and more running. Of course it also makes it hard for other teams to run with us. But if we are running this way every game. Perhaps we will be the ones that are too tired to run our own offense. Any thoughts?

    Nate needs to sub more!  I don't understand why he doesn't give Elliott Williams more minutes for one... hes a freak athlete and could prove himself with some minutes givin too him... and then Chris Johnson should be playing more so that the posts can get more rest.  I also thinks CJ fits into an up-tempo offense just by watching how athletic he is on defense.  The up-tempo offense is fine... Nate just needs to sub.

    Blazers go deeper then most teams, You should check the minutes each player gets per game. But LA and Wallace will be getting no rest now. As for Elliot, I dunno if he should get more minutes. We have Nolan smith to sub at the point and J-Cross to sub out Wesley. Just because Elliot is an athlete doesn't mean much. Which is why Chris Johnson has been in the D league for the past few years. Also we can't go and do to many subs because it messes with the tempo.

    Rumors have shown that the Rockets are very interested in Dwight Howard and that the interest is mutual.

    I''d trade for Asik.

    Sanders better shotblocker, better dunker and around the rim, Asik better defensively. I think Asik will have the better career.
