Josh is looking really bad. He’s a rookie but I didn’t anticipate how average he would look athletically. But Oubre is about to secure the bag and Wiggins just got the max. We good..more on the way

He was never as athletic as portrayed nikkas was comparing him to Iguodala :mjlol:, they was drunk, he don't got a 40 inch vert, he don't got a 7 foot wingspan

Zach Collins is playing pretty well :ehh:

Not bad for a rook with limited minutes. He's already a few steps behind Meyers Leonard, who's stepped up his game this season..
He's a lot more aggressive and willing to post up than meyers as well....


IDK if it's a good idea to pay Nurkic...Still a lot remains to be seen. He's the best Center the blazers have had in a minute.but he still just doesnt have IT :patrice:

I went to the game...
Collins looked trash asf.. I thought we were trying to tank the dam game...

Being the only Blazers fan in a sea if heat fans:blessed:

It’s not even that breh..he just doesn’t look nearly as explosive as believed vertically. Tatum has had plays where he’s attacked the rim and tried to body cats. We haven’t seen that out of Jackson.

It’s been rough but after I was tough on Ingram and he caught on. I’m hoping the same happens for Josh even though he’s an old rookie.

I think we can say that Thibs was holding back Dunn.


More and more it's looking clear that both the Bulls and Pacers won their respective trades in what they got back for trading their star players.
Jimmy Butler and PG-13 are overrated. You don't trade young pieces for those guys. The Bulls acquired three starters with All-Star potential in Dunn, LaVine, and Markannen. The Pacers got Oladipo who always had a ton of potential, dude worked on his jumper and got in the best shape of his life and looks like a more aggressive scorer than PG-13 period. Sabonis is a walking double-double...

The Knicks won the Melo trade as well, Oklahoma City would be better off with Kanter who would be a 6MOY candidate again with them this year. OKC could have started Grant or something at the 4 instead of Melo and would have been able to switch everything defensively with Roberson, George, Grant. McDermott is a good off-ball cutter and shooter, OKC has no bench now.

I think teams should have learned they lesson about trading for these stars and big name players after this. :francis:

Conviently left out the team that did and are 12-0 with him in the lineup and have the best offense of all time.

They didn't trade young nikkas you missed the point of the post.

The main pieces of the trade are Patrick Beverley and Lou Will, who are 29 and 31 respectively, and you already know CP3 better than them together. Sam Dekker and Montrezl Harrell aren't high upside players.

The Wolves traded what ends up being three high upside players all 23 and under right in the timeline of Wiggins and Towns too.

:comeon:
