    Gordon is really going to help the Nuggets. Gary Harris had really fallen off over the last 3 seasons; was shooting poorly. Denver made a good trade

    Murray, Barton, and Morris. Does Powell try and guard Gordon or Porter?

    by the way, every positive comment in this forum about another team doesn't require a pro-Blazer rebuttal

    Murray, Barton, and Morris are awful defenders. Are you suggesting Morris starts?

    He can take either of them but in your 3 guard scenario, he’d guard Barton.

    I'm fine with how we matchup with Denver out of the other teams ahead of us.

    Lakers have fallen to 5th. Hoping Blazers and Mavs get hot now. Kick the Lakers into the play-in.

    With Gary Harris and Torrey Craig gone, Denver doesn’t have any one that can guard Dame anymore.

    And every positive one doesn't require a negative rebuttal, but then what the hell else would you have to say on here?

    Blazers trade #15 and #20 for #10, but got #20 back for free. Now, they can get #15 back for free!

    has Portland signed RHJ yet? If not, I'm not seeing what the holdup is....maybe a timing thing within the CBA

    I think RHJ is a fairly flawed player, but he rebounds well and plays defense. I'm not sure Jackson does anything well, but I've seen so little of him I wouldn't know if he does

    Interesting that they waived Justin Jackson (a Blazer draftee - didn't we trade him for Zach Collins?) to make room
