brainfart under pressure of the wife wanting to start the movie and wrapping up the post in "just a second"... my bad STOMP

The key phrase here is "going to try and trade" some lesser stuff for something much greater. Of course every team's management is always trying to do that, no one wants do the reverse and Portland isn't the sort of destination that players are trying to maneuver their careers to. Thus far...

Or maybe you don't know what you're talking about? There are tons of examples of guys who did little to nothing their first year(s) in the league and went on to be much more then rotation level players. Heck, Deni came into the league the same age as Hansen, did jack his rookie year and was a...

Coming into the draft he was billed as a skilled/efficient offensive player but a soft/weak defender. I prioritize defense from front court players and he's still not shown me anything to change my opinion that he'll ever be that, so no. STOMP

not a Trailblazers fan, obviously. I never understood the appeal of being a troll, but whatever... you do you STOMP

This video is example 1A why I liked Bam's big game... it made Kobe fanboys cry cry cry. As we all know, LA's favorite rapist never ever received a favorable whistle, never ever committed a foul and certainly never whined. STOMP

Yes at the least Dame should be helpful next year hitting open looks at a high rate, but only one guy has any claim to being the best pure shooter in the world. No maybe about it, that guy is Curry. STOMP

Deni has established himself as the man on this team and the ball is going to be in his hands a lot going forward. That said, he won't be playing 48 minutes per game and teams with the best offenses usually have multiple playmakers like OKC with SGA and JWilliams. There is plenty of room for...

Players never get that memo, management tanks by keeping their best players sidelined. Once the game starts guys generally give their best, which is what Jrue is doing. Its just that, even at 35, his best is better then most players including any other PTB guard on both ends. Too bad he missed...

While it seemed like DC didn't go out of his way to swing his arms, the elbow to chin shot connected like it was MMA so I understand especially since he was the road player. It wasn't a dirty play, it just looked bad and the League is very image conscious. STOMP

Thats a very small sample size to draw a conclusion from. Do you handle every new situation the same way? STOMP

Remember when much of this board was in a tizzy pining to dump Nurk and upgrade with Ayton? While I wasn't excited about DA or his contract, that was still the right move. Nurk was such a slug STOMP

Were we aware that prior to games the ref crews were betting on who would T him up first? I wasn't, though it sure seemed like something was up. Sheed was of course a notorious hot head, but they would seem to go out of their way to bait him with the worst ticky tack calls and then hair trigger...
