5* QB Will Mencl is said to be announcing tomorrow. He's been the Ducks main QB target for many months. He has good physical traits but it's his ability to process that makes him an elite prospect. Also, rumblings from the Spring practices that Akili Smith has taken steps forward and been...

the very last pick #14 in the 2024 lotto. All draft classes are not created equally and that one was widely thought of at the time as lacking top end talent and quality depth going into it. So yes in a sense yeah they did get the star player through the lottery but it would be a much more...

Also in the package that landed Deni was a back of the lotto 2024 pick which turned into Bub Carrington and two 2nds. If they stand pat with the young guys on the current roster, that 2029 pick looks like it will be in the mid to late 20s. Obviously this is nowhere close to the amount of draft...

don't know if this was posted elsewhere, but this is a really good interview with Toumani, Donovan and Deni

Don't know if TV guys said that as I've come to tune them out, but the ref did in his explanation of the fake drama call. Having just watched the replay 12 times it's amazing he said that. To me it seemed like the refereeing was dead set on making this game a photo finish. STOMP

Tank this! STOMP

He's beloved here in the Bay Area mostly from his media contributions calling Warriors games and as a longtime sports talk host.. When they built the Chase Center they asked him what sort of wall of fame honor he would like to receive there and he asked for the toilet plaque you reference. STOMP

Former player, long time color guy for the W's and on national broadcasts for ESPN and ABC for years. He called finals next to Walton and Nessler and as opposed to you both insightful and hilarious. You want to pass on a listen? Okay, whatever... not sure why anyone here should care at all that...

Coward was my biggest hope going into the draft. I yelled at the top of my lungs when they selected him and I was bummed when he was moved. But whatever... STOMP

Disagree. The talent on the roster is mostly young and ascending. I don't think as is it will definitely blossom into championship talent, but could see them become outside contenders with some minor tweaks and continued internal development. I've been a proponent of holding onto the Bucks picks...

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
