    I'm going to enter this as "Exhibit A" when someone says "you're just a fan. What do you know? These guys are paid professionals."

    You want to know what I know? I know that Westbrook is a cancer and that trade was horrible.

    Agreed, but You could argue it both ways: LBJ is a rotten GM - should have left it to the "professionals".

    Zach Collins… still a foul machine. 6 minutes. 2 fouls.

    I blame LeGM. He and Davis clamored for him so much so that they met at his house.

    Sacramento may have turned the corner to becoming a good team. Sabonis has instantly meshed with the guys there. It would be great if they can knock New Orleans out of the playoff race.

    Would have been nice to have got Sabonis.

    I wouldn't call him a cancer. He's just a bad player at this point in his career and a bad match for LeBron and AD.

    He ended up only 4 though so it's he can dial back when he has to. Plus there running him about 4-6 minutes a quarter so can be aggressive when he out there.

    Only 4? he led the team in fouls and, for the most part, played 5-10 minutes less than everyone else in the rotation.

    He also had 0 blocks and 1 steal.

    Meanwhile, Poetl had 3 blocks, 2 steals, and 2 fouls.

    So him being aggressive is worse than Poetl playing like a normal person.

    Collins is a hack master.

    Who said I hate him? Or even dislike him?

    Just making an observation that the guy still can’t stay out of foul trouble. Many people thought refs were out to get him because he was Blazer, when it appears the dude just can’t stop hacking the shit out of people.
