Once again, the Blazers are back. This year is going to be huge. And for once, we can root for a solid group of guys just like they were when the term "Rip City" was coined.
Andre Miller, a 30 year old vet, is on the team. In his Blazer debut against the Rockets yesterday he showed what he can do...and boy do we need him. With Steve Blake at point we get consistent smart basketball and few mistakes. But thats the thing, he doesnt over play or play too risky. Blake is good, but with Miller running the point we get a new asset that we've never had...someone that can perfect the baseline pass to Oden. This will get Oden to become a real dominant inside threat. Defenses will have to defend our lethal deep threat as well as our post threat. I'm really excited about this. We just have to beat LA.

Oh good. No one wants to comment on my awesome post.
ReplyDeleteMiller needs to get the ball into the basket. That is all I know about basketball; that, and the fact that basketball is a place for very tall people to go since they are big clowns and have no where else to go.
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of Andre Miller. If he works out that'll be great, but it is the beginning of the season. So, let's see what happens.
ReplyDeleteYeah....Oden. Can we all say Sam Bowie reincarnated? Imagine if the Blazers had drafted Durant instead, there would be no stopping them. Ok, I'll be patient, after all he did have 14 pts and 8 boards versus the Spurs last night! We up here in Seattle are pulling for Rip City hoping they go all the way, but Oden will definitely have to get his shit together in order for that to happen.
ReplyDeleteHey Master Dick! Good to see you. Yeah, I think this is the make or break year for Oden, at least with the Blazers.
