    With the Blazers lacking in big men, why isn't Hasheem Thabeet not playing? The dude's 7'3". You figure the team could use ALL the big men available. Give him a chance to play and see what he can do.

    He'd have to get though Thomas and Przybilla. I don't think the vets would make that an easy journey.

    7'3" is cool. His skill set is decent. However,we needed his 6 fouls and possible 4 or 5 boards. Loose balls beat us last night. Particularly,3 maybe four long rebounds that would had made a huge difference were we to have hustled to them. Overall though, i have to say that im proud of our boys. And Hickson, are you kidding me ? What a steal off waivers.The kid got his game on.

    Seriously, what was even the point of dealing Camby if we aren't going to play the players we got in return. Flynn and Thabeet are expiring contracts so we kind of need to see what we have in them before making a decision in regards to signing them or not. Felton is going to be gone after this season, so why not play Jonny and see what he can do with the starters? We know what we have in Przy and Kurt is older then our head coach, so what is to be gained by playing them so much? Throw Thabeet out there in situations other than garbage time. I'm not saying either player is an all-NBA talent, but goodness, can we at least get a sneak peak?
