    If he is leading the league in triple doubles you don't want him playing fewer minutes do you?

    I included the prelims. That's in the schedule I posted. Warmup games I didn't post because I couldn't find them.

    My goodness, that sounds pretty good. Just think what he will do when his wrist heals. Perhaps his passes will be more on the mark, maybe even shoot that three ball well again.

    Nic's exit interview he said the staff had a 3 month program for him already laid out with film. I'm pretty sure the organization has pinpointed details he needs to work on. I'm a huge fan of his game. He's also only 1 year older than Damian. His career is just getting started

    If LaMarcus and Damian are on the team; 35% or better 3pt shooting along with solid defense. Anything else is a bonus.

    Need more players with uncertain futures obviously.

    I will say I'm fine with Batum playing out his contract to the all-star break w/ the Blazers.
    Players play better in contract years and all. If he plays well. Let him stay, if not... well.

    Yes I went full BGD

    Someone that is present more than 25% of the time. And I don't mean on the court. I mean in spirit and mind.

    At a 9.4 ppg which is awful for him. He plays when it's convenient or when he 'decides' to.

    Yes, and then there is that appearance. Divorce? I hope that was the root of the distraction. But I don't know.

    You made a post about Damian, why are we not as hard on him as we are Nic.

    Speaking for myself, I feel strongly Damian shows up more 75% of the time and he tries. His struggles are not because he is on another planet some place.

    Nic plays the biggest minutes on the team and guards the opposing teams best player, often a PG because Damian can't stop them. I contend that Nico puts the majority of effort on the defensive end compared to Dame. They are different players. Nic doesn't look to score.

    If they don't produce 25.3 pts, 6 rebounds, and 7.3 assists with about 1.6 steals, then I don't want any part of them.

    Only a few of you are answering the question, how many pts, assists and rebounds do you want from a starting SF?

    Right what Batum gives? Outside of LeBron there is not a SF that puts up a more balanced Stat line across the board. (that is not to say that Nic is all that)

    The biggest Stat we need from it is assists as we don't produce much of it from our other positions.

    I can't agree. I thought he played mindlessly in the Playoff. He missed more three point shots that he had assists in this series. That is mindless, I can't think a good point guard that I have ever seen go that far off the track.
