Blazers will be desperate for a second star. Simons/Sharpe/Nurkic for AD who says no.
We just can't count on this guy
On board with this. If it becomes clear that LeBron isn't coming back, maybe sit AD the final week or so of the regular season. I still want AD...
When we made the deadline trades I got some flak for saying they were more about next season as this season was probably too far gone. 74/76 NBA...
I probably start Rui while LeBron is out, that starting group could use his isolation scoring. That first game @GS with the new guys and LeBron...
Well f***. LeBron missing extended time is bad enough, but missing this stretch against all the teams in front of us is particularly awful.
LeBron and probably DLO out tomorrow @Memphis. Unfortunately, that's probably a loss. Next three are @OKC (back-to-back), vs. Minnesota and vs....
That's a bummer, but I'd rather rest guys against Memphis than against OKC. We'll be favored against @OKC, vs. Minny and vs. GS, if we win those...
To the "connectors" point, its amazing what slotting guys correctly can do for your team. Reaves and Brown were misplaced as our primary 3&D guys...
I think LeBron backing away from the insistence on playing with Bronny hasn't really gotten enough attention. That McMenamin interview was a...
A lot of discussion around the lackluster All Star game this week has started with "well I don't blame the players because the incentives...". I...
To this day it still confounds me how anyone, let alone a pretty well-respected NBA coach with years of experience, could look at Pau Gasol and...
I f***ing love Pau. He got a lot of s*** toward the end of his tenure here (some deserved, some not) but he's really embraced being a Laker the...
That's fair. I see them trading for Hyland similarly to our trading for Rui; its more about using your limited resources to lock in a younger...
Maybe Russ benefits the Clippers or maybe he doesn't, I really don't know. Their roster is more conducive to his play style than ours was IMO....
A month ago I would have said yes because they play a lot of 5-out with Batum or Covington at the 5 and switching onto bigger guys is probably the...
He'll take Bones's minutes, which is probably fine because Bones really isn't that good at this point of his career. It sounds like Russ is going...
Since the trade I've been saying that Reaves/Hachimura should be starting rather than Beasley/Vanderbilt because the former were better fits with...
Yup, my one nitpick of last night is that it feels like DLo sits for a really long team. He basically played the first 6 minutes and last 6...
I could see him in Miami, maybe Denver too. I'd be fine with him coming here but he probably wants a legit shot at a title or significant minutes...
