    That had to be a flop no way Simons is strong enough to push an nba player that far.

    I don't think we're making the preseason playoffs.

    You're better than that.

    As I understand it, Sly is a very busy man as he's dating the entire Blazers dance team all at the same time.

    I could've done as good of a job as Payton just did.

    Well of course, he is, after all, the Leader of the Pack. All the dancers want a bit o'that leader.

    They called us for 45 fouls. Almost 1 foul per minute. Ridiculous.

    You're better than that than to think I'm referring to just one pre-season game. He looked good early last season and seemed to regress through the later portion of the season and didn't show any improvement in Summer League. It's been quite some time since he had even a decent game.

    So I was pretty openly against drafting Collins, so I have a bias there that may be hard to get around. I'm not going to declare him a bust, but I do think there were better players available when they drafted him.
    I think Collins looks pretty good defensively, and offensively he just cannot get the ball in the hoop.
    He's obviously still young and all that, hopefully he puts things together. I have seen flashes from him where he looks great. So hopefully he gets it put together. I had pretty much the same opinion of his game when they drafted him that I do now.

    It's not unfair. The team talks about him as a pillar, and he may be, but ......meh
