Bye Zach Collins

Because he got more than $7M per year from the Spurs?

 

We could have picked up his option for 7M

 

Even with the injuries Neil let a rare Portland lotto pick walk for nothing.

 

His best season he still had a below average PER, negative BPM. He wasn’t good. He may become a solid role player at some point, but he was a shitty pick

 

Step one in recovery is admitting you have a problem

 

hes 23 yo and has lost two seasons to injuries

big men take more time to develop

 

I think he's 24..same age as Ben Simmons

 

will be in a couple of months

 

I know ours always do

 

Imagine how good Ben Simmons, a big man, who is a 3 time all star and 2 time all NBA first team defensive player will be when he develops? With him and Zach it’s like looking in a damn mirror

 

big men (for me) means exclusively centers

 

I thought we were talking about Zach, our starting PF?

 

Yes, we could have. The Blazers didn't want to spend that much on Zach given the Luxury Tax implications and other moves they want to make. I would have like to see Zach back, but not at that price.

 

I really thought Zach would be an X factor going into this season until the 3rd time's a charm break...lot of talent and hopefully he makes it work in SA

 

zach collins is a hybrid like davis, adebayo, sabonis, can play both positions

he couldnt play center for the blazers given we have nurk and hes too good to be a backup... blazers let aminu go to make room for collins to start

 

Can we please stop drafting centers?

 

What an epic cluster the 2017 Draft was. Nothing left from 3 first round picks.

Such a waste.

 

So another poor decision

 

Just Neil's employment.

 

How about just stop drafting WABC’s?
