Title: Wes
Post by: marquette09 on January 11, 2013, 01:06:13 AM
Hit two big threes late to beat Miami.  Glad to see him doing so well in the association

Wes is getting a lot of love on ESPN. They showed both threes on the recap and then his game winner is in the PotD.

Saw Lebron had a season low, did Wes spend any time defending him? 

Portland's got a very talented starting five: Wes, Aldridge, Batum, Hickson, Lillard.  We'll see how far they can go with them, since unfortunately they have no bench whatsoever.

I caught a few minutes before bed and he was guarding Wade.

He did guard Lebron on at least a few big possessions late in the game. Lebron tried to post him up twice on the baseline, but Wes held his ground and Lebron missed the shots, Portland rebounded. On Miami's last possession, Wes had Lebron tight and Lebron passed it off. After two passes Chalmers missed an open 3. On the recap the announcer said Wes blew up the set play. Great finish for him and he was great in his post-game interview. Talked about giving DWade grief over the Bears not making the playoffs.

Haha, talking trash even after his Vikings were eliminated?  Well, I guess they were the ones who kept the Bears out.

At the start of the game the announcers highlighted that Wes would guard lebron to start; he struggled offensively while guarding the big guy and was on wade a bunch too... With he and jimmy getting some run lately on guarding lebron, buzz has gotta love that to show his guys re: defense

Given that Wes is from Madison, he's likely a Packers fan.

He's actually a huge Vikings fan, it's very apparent if you follow him on Twitter

Proximity Logic: like how people in Milwaukee are Bears fans.


This is false.  HE is a vikings fan.

I thought it was common knowledge that Wes is Jay Bee.

Not only hit the 3s but defended LeBron excellently on Miami's final possession, forcing a pass.

After Wes hit his second 3, Kevin Harlan on TNT called him "The Assassin." I like it.
