    We've got Oden and Pryzbilla back from last year to take care of business at the five spot, and Roy leads a fleet of guards (Blake, Fernandez, Miller, etc). What about the three and four spots? I know we have Aldridge (when he signs), but who backs him up? With all the hype about Miller signing, it seems to me that we're ignoring some of the "bigger" issues, but maybe I'm just missing them.
    I am a fan of Nathan McMillan, who has turned player potentials into a force to be afraid of. Go Blazers!

    Well we have Batum and Outlaw at the 3 spot so thats pretty solid. But i've also been wondering about the four spot. There is Pendergraph but he's a bit short as well as Outlaw for the four spot, which is why i wanted us to get Millsap. Frye was a good backup but hes now out of the picture. I hope they do work something out for that spot

    Last night on courtside,  it was mentioned that either Pendergraph or Cunningham had bulked up since summer league, but I can't remember which one. Can anyone help me out here?  Thanks  :)

    Too much clutter at SF and SG. I say run small with Outlaw at the 4 depending on the team and throw out Blake, Rudy, Martel, and Pryzbilla into the secondary group. There will be so many 3-bombs that France will feel them and think its an air strike. Boom goes the dynamite.

    Its a good question but being that Pendergraph was drafted for that position it would seem to me that you would go with him for the most part backing up LA.....citing the subpar defensive efforts and frame of one, TOut, then it would seem he would be best suited at backup 3 mostly(unless team matchups call for otherwise) with RF, SB and JP rounding out the second unit

    I would agree LMA is a decent defender but his help defense and team defense needs a lot of work. It is in these areas that Bosh really separates himself from LMA and it is because of that he is a better player than LMA despite not putting the sam...

    I was looking at some shooting stats and came across a very very alarming stat. LMA was the league leader in FGA from 16-23 feet. Not only was he the leader he was lead by a mile. His 7.3 attempts from this distance easily outpaced Demar Derozan w...

    Sug I would start with him outscoring Wesley Matthews. He also needs to get his FTA up and his FG% up and cut down the turnovers. 


    His defense was decent last year but not that good as he is either too weak or just unwil...
