Over two years ago, in late March, as the Trailblazers’ disappointing season wound down, Meyers Leonard scored 22 points in an NBA game. “Finally!” came the cry from Portland fans. “It took him a while, but he’s going to be a beast next year, I can feel it!”. They weren’t too sad about being totally…

Meyers Leonard 17 Points/3 Dunks Full Highlights (4/6/2015)
Meyers “7-foot Bieber” Leonard is an enigma. A big who can shoot from outside as well as use his superior athleticism to make highlight-reel plays? There is no reason why such a player would not receive consistent and plentiful minutes. It’s like Shaq and Dirk combined. Blazers fans can clue me in here on why…

I shouldn’t need to tell you this, but I’m going to tell you anyway: Meyers Leonard is in the 50-40-90 club. Well, not in quite yet. He has to finish the season before the induction ceremony happens, I think. But he’s on pace, and if he keeps getting no/very few minutes, he should be able…

We have witnessed the complete transformation of Meyers Leonard, from dunking-only cocoon to three-point chucking butterfly. It truly is a sight to behold, the wonder and splendour of Mother Nature never ceases to amaze. Meyers is a smart dude. 7-footers who shoot threes are a rare (though growing less so) commodity around the NBA. It’s…

Meyers Leonard has seen his minutes drop drastically since his rookie year. The Trailblazers starting lineup, in general, has been extremely healthy, so there are few minutes for underperforming semi-busts. Supposedly he is horrible on defense, though since he gets no minutes I can’t validate that claim. Trailblazers fans will surely be happy to tell…
Read MoreMeyers Leonard Career High 22 Points/1 Three Pointer Full Highlights (3/30/2013)
Meyers Leonard is the only good bench player on the Trailblazers. But with Aldridge out, he gets to start, leaving the Blazers with exactly one bench player that you would want to play, that being Eric Maynor. Apparently they should start Leonard more often, as he picked up his first career dub-dub while also scoring…

I have a favorable impression of Meyers Leonard. I don’t know why. I watch a lot of Portland games, but it never seems that he plays very much? Maybe it’s because he’s white. Yeah, that’s it. I must be a racist or something. Anyway, given my high opinion of him, it surprised me that 15…
