    yeah I kinda cringe when I put it like that too. Honestly I can see them fall down to 6th honestly, they still have dj and blake, they got a gang of role players from the houston deal but you are right they are probably down more, it's just tough to say

    He's too real. This is a rookie? He's got the mindset of a veteran. Also Dame was serious about his praise for Swanigan. That wasn't just a media answer. It was easy to tell he meant that shit.

    jason quick out here already asking moe on the potential melo deal that probably would of included him. Do I recall any of our local reporters having any knowledge of anything about the melo deal? matter of fact, anything in general? no, they don't. Unless you count jason quicks airport rush with festus as a damn story. These guys are just bad and that's such a weird question to ask moe right out of the gate. Portland sports media is a bunch of shit starters man. Shit starters and just plain bad journalists

    Moe Harkless shocked by Caleb. Moe's team kept leaving Caleb open on threes this past week and he kept hitting them.

    At this point I wouldn't doubt if Swanigan ends up starting at pf at some point this season

    "You striving for rookie of the year?"

    Swanigan: I'm only worried about how I practice tomorrow.


    Winner.

    Yep. The moment I heard him speak I was like "Dame."

    It's great.

    Meyers aside because we don't know how he will perform, I like the depth of this team and the versatility, also how it sounds we are gonna go more inside out with Nurk at times. I think Swanigan will be something in this league some day. Collins will be the project that doesn't see many minutes this season.

    That's the team I had a question mark when putting there in my head. I can see them fall, I go back and forth. I could see them at 6 more so than 4th. I think that would be my final answer, they would fall to 6
