That's the best part, it was a no call and the blazers scored while Kidd was on the floor holding his business. LOL
We lose our star center and excellent back center, they lose the same. Now, we only need to steal their coveted player in the draft to complete the trifecta.

wow the blazers were suppose to be contenders coming into the season but injuries have done them in.. they really have the deepest team when healthy.. they have like 4 solid players injured and they are still a decent team just shows you how deep they were.. anyways i hate Pryzbilla since he is a flopper and is dirty as hell.. i hate him starting from last years playoffs where he tried to flop everytime and he just played plain dirty.. still i hate to see guys injured but oh well... i do however like the blazers team after the rockets and suns.. sucks for them .. blazers edge must be going up in storm now
This one's going to hurt the Blazers a **** load. Pryzbilla is the defensive anchor and he doesn't get the credit he deserves. He rebounds, plays tough d, plays clean up well for easy buckets, gets in opposing centers minds, locks down the paint and protects the rim. Blazers are going to be giving up a ton of points here on out. If there ever was such a thing as a No Stat All Star team this guy would be starting center. What Battier is to us at the wing position is what Joel is like for the Blazers at center.
The west did get stronger in my opinion, but there are fewer dominating teams in the conference. I would say the Spurs and Suns are slightly weaker, but at the same time Portland, OKC, Sacramento and Nuggets became much stronger. The only team that completely dropped out the picture is New Orleans, otherwise the West is still pretty strong.
Maybe there players will keep getting hurt untill they can no longer afford to resign all of them as they blossom into amazing players. They really have alot of talent, they just need a coach like RA who can pull it all together like he has with us. But this is awesome news for us. I hope he recovers though, just after the season is finished lol.
