Blazer's Edge KP's assessment of players

Hey everyone,

           When I was watching the Jerryd Bayless interview last week, I heard that he mentioned that he was an introvert. Just from that I realized that the whole team is full of introverts for example Brandon Roy (doesnt go out to parties), Lamarcus (guarded by people), Oden (keeps to himself on the team plane), Joel Pryzbilla (very laid back, only vocal when he needs to be), Outlaw (very quiet his early years), and Nate Mcmillan (very pragmatic with his teachings and planning). I figure that KP uses a psychology test to assess an individual player's inate personality such as the Myers-briggs test, I tested to be an ISTJ(introvert-sensing,thinking-judging). From my observations, I think Brandon Roy is an ISTP, they tend to make the best athletes with the best motor of how he percieves things on the court, pretty much a slow thinker that does things methodocal and can be flexible at any giving moment like looking to change the tempo whenever, if you are familiar with the myers-briggs, I want to know what you guys think of the other player's personality are. I'm a psychology major and I'm really into analyzing people's personality types, so excuse me for being nerdy with this lol. I think the only extrovert on the team was Sergio, he tended to do make things happen without thinking, and seem to complain and openly express his opinions all the time, which resulted on why Nate wasn't too fond of him being so unpredictable. Thats why I think KP would never go for an extrovert player (Lebron, Chris PaulKevin Garnett types ), you know the types who want all the attention, who are very aggressive, and big trash talkers, just count how many extroverts were on those jailblazer teams. And besides, the best players are Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, Tiger Woods, and Tim Duncan, they were all considered introverts, but the media doesn't perceive these guys to be charismatic speakers, they get recognition of what they are good at. Let me know what you guys think, we definantly have the spurs model in my opinion personality wise.

Blazer's Edge Blazer KillazSCK

After this loss to the thunder tonight, I realize this, we seem to struggle against certain players from some teams around the league. What really aggravates me more is that we always get killed by a certain role or star player who else wouldn't be that effective against other teams. They just always love to crush the blazers. Here is a list of some current players and past players who I just hate. Do you guys feel my pain?

Blazer's Edge What if we drafted Jameer Nelson!!!

From what I see, Jameer Nelson, has made the reserves for the ASG, I remember in the 04 draft we were eyeing him, but chose Sebastion Telfair instead. I was thinking of how this team would be different if we had him, then had that magical 06 draft, then getting Rudy and Oden the year after. But in reality, things would of been different by now, but we still would be crying over not drafting Chris Paul ha. But what if he played alongside Roy and had the option of throwing it in to Oden instead of Howard? He would of been an upgrade over blake, I don't think we would have a pg logjam now if we would have drafted him.

Blazer's Edge All-time best 6th man of the blazers

Hey everybody, 

            I'm new to this site, I mostly been lurking, I been watching the blazers since I was in the 2nd grade when the blazers lost to the pistons in the finals. I want to know who the best 6th man of all time for the blazers is/was. My pick would be Cliff Robinson in the early 90's drexler teams, I would pick him because he averaged 19, 6 and 2 blocks per game and he actually won the award in 93.
