I see in the Oregonian that Roy is lobbying for more time at the point as a
way to get himself more into the flow of the game. I guess it might make
some sense, but what do we do with Blake, JJ & Sergio then? Does that mean
we go from not have a PG to having too many?

I really think having Oden go down is having a lasting effect on the team.
IMO, Pryz is in a good spot as the "veteran" guy, but with his lack of PT,
it's asking a lot of him. Brandon is the other good choice, but he's got to
get back to his ROY level of play to really take over.

Oh well, we knew this wouldn't be easy to watch this year, & we were right.

Go Blazers !

Give JJ more time at SG.

Already did that.

I think Nate should follow his own advice....let them play.

Well guess he got over his slump...

Brandon Roy has been rewarded for his recent stretch of sensational play by
earning something few Trail Blazers have in recent memory: NBA Western
Conference player of the week honors.

Roy threatened to average a triple double in leading the Blazers to three
wins last week, averaging 25.7 points, 7.3 rebounds and 7.3 assists. Through
it all, he shot a blistering 59.2 percent from the field, making 29 of 49
shots

Now, if Outlaw can win 6th man & most improved player, we'll really be on
fire. : )

Go Blazers !
