Who do you think should start at center, assuming Nurkic isn't back yet?

    Great unselfish pass CJ. had a wide open three coming off that screen from Nurk. But saw the defenders quit and Got Nurk a wide open easy layup.
    Great pass.

    I do not care.
    Whats your excuse for not 2 minutes later CJ had 8 seconds left on the clock and attacked 3 defenders missing the layup.
    Wide open baseball player at the top.
    Make the correct basketball play.
    CJ has lost games this year because of his Melo-like play.

    Aminu could be starting sf next season, just find another good wing. I mean if he continues hitting shots like he has been, you keep him. Get rid of harkless and turner plus one of the bigs for whoever. Start Zach Collins next to nurkic

    catapult looks horrible but it goes in. Gonna take a few weeks, but defenses should start respecting that opening up lanes for Dame.

    But he's really a 33% three point shooter, right? Small sample?

    Small sample size. Collins hasn’t shot many this season and also hasn’t got wide open looks. I saw what honki saw earlier and I wold also rather have a wide open collins than cj shooting contested shots regardless of how good he is from mid range

    If Portland would go back to running offense on this next possession. And not have their duo guards taking turns going 1 on 1 that would be great.

    It doesn’t make sense why we give it to Ed on that pick n roll
