    Drop Scoot and draft Dylan Harper. That dude can flat out ball. I’m not sold on Ace Bailey

    I didn't want Clingan because it's an archetype or player that's just not important nowadays. But it was such a shitty draft I was fine with the pick because there weren't any good options.

    Been super impressed with him this season. He looks like a good role player today and has more upside than I thought. Can't even think of the last rookie we had that looked this good. Maybe Gary Trent Jr or something. He might end up being the best rookie since Dame.

    Halftime roller basketball might be more competitive than the product on the court

    Yeah there was a hilarious Lakers clip on here a week or two ago where both teams shot like 20 bricked 3s in a row.

    I agree. Been pleasantly surprised.

    Look I talk lots of shit about the Blazers because I’m a super jaded fan. But deep down I root for each and every one of them to make me look like an ass for doubting them

    After us losing all those games by 40+ points only being down 10 at the half seems like a very competitive game to me lol.

    Wemby is like a cheat code for an NBA player. You can tell hes not close to his peak but already dominant. This Spurs team without him might be the worst roster in the NBA but should have a winning record after tonight.

    Feel like they're kind of wasting a good healthy year of Wemby not having 1 or 2 better starters out there.

    If Wemby stays healthy thought the Spurs might be a powerhouse along with OKC the next decade. Both team have a lot of talent and a boatload of picks.

    But he was the third pick in the draft! He’s the guy Portland wanted. They tanked just to get him. He’s a building block. He’s our future!

    Bringing in Scoot to play with Ant instead of Shaedon is utterly mind boggling.

    The combo of Scoot/Shae is flashing things infinitely more interesting than Ant/Scoot.
