So this report on our back up center gives me a little more hope for the season if it holds any sort of accuracy. nate bishop did't mention any thing about it in his report. any one have any thing else on his performance?

Go, Joel, go!

IMO, it's players like Przybilla who are going to influence how quickly Portland emerges from the lottery.

If he's able to contribute in a meaningful way--either off the bench or in the starting role if Theo gets injured--it will help the team quite a bit. If he is a nonentity, Portland's lack of depth, when accompanied with its relative lack of impact players, will catch up to it and it'll be a long couple of years.

I agree with Ed on this. Przybilla could have a huge impact on the success of the team this year. The most vulnerable position of the Blazers currently is depth at center and if Przybilla could alleviate the issue the team could take off.
