  1. It will be fun to see what Clingan adds to his game this year and how much his fitness and strength has improved. With today's faster pace, you need two quality centers to play 48 minutes. So although there will be competition between him and Hansen, there will also be relief that neither has to carry the load for the whole game. Go Blazers.

  2. One thing that happened occasionally is the ball could be knocked out of his hands. Yes, keep it away. However, hand strength can improve

  3. How Zach Edey is ranked 88 in ESPN's Top 100 and DC only get an honorable mention is a travesty. DC is clearly better than Edey

  4. Drafting Yang had nothing to do with Clingan.
    Ayton was always a problem and was never going to resign. Rob is awesome, but may retire a Blazer because of health. Duop is loved here, but is a backup backup at best.
    The only thing drafting Yang had to do with Clingan was to make sure he wasn't the only center on the roster in a year.

  5. Mike! Just want you to know I appreciate ya and all the hard work you do day in and out for the podcast and us fans. Keep on rockin and I’ll keep on listening! Cheers!
