Do you want the Blazers to tank for a good lotto pick at this point in the season?

    Man Simons is straight up a liability right now it’s kinda hard to watch.

    What are you insinuating that Stotts watches that side of the ball?

    I personally expected almost nothing, but they have force fed him back up PG minutes (which for his developement is probably good), but its pretty clear he’s not really ready to be a good backup PG yet.

    Horrible analogy comparing a product to a professional athlete and I did answer the question. You are the one thinking he should be a star but they never said he was going to be one now. Having talent doesn't equal being a star.

    So their bench sucks, and Simons is part of that.

    Isn't that what you talk about in the summer, the development of your future? I think if you watched him practice at length you'd be pretty excited and want to talk about him as well. But then again you can't seem to see what's special about him so perhaps not. ;)

    And what's that have to do with Simons needing time to develop?

    I never claimed he didnt need time to develope. My entire point is that it was a bad idea to hype him all summer because he does need time to develope. All it does is create expectations that shouldnt be there.
