No one ever says "Man those champions were a$$es" -- a$$holes that win championships are called "intense competitors". So what are the real intense competitors called? role players.

I've said that many times before...the Lakers won championships, but Kobe was an a$$...Detroit won a championship, but Sheed was and still is a first-rate a$$...

I would rather watch these Blazers play hard and win 30 games than the Blazers of recent years who whined on the court, whined in the press, and whined while doing their community service. Like Juulie, I will actually buy tickets and attend games this season - something I haven't done in quite a few years.
