    I listened to 18 seconds of it and knew how the rest was going to go. So sad.

    Asked who looks to have made a leap from last year, Dame talked up Meyers, of all people. Said he always tells Meyers that he looks good, but that it was different this year. That he came in with a different energy. Not "loud Meyers", but out there just playing ball and playing well--challenging at the rim, making shots, and simply doing his job.

    Do I dare believe?

    If you believe that Meyers will ever amount to anything then I've got some ocean front property in Phoenix you might be interested in....

    Meyers didn't block a single shot in 254 minutes last year. Not sure the "challenging at the rim" he was offering there was what we needed.

    Cautious optimism.
    I've had it ever since Nards got on the court last year.
    I don't know if being that last year was his first off-season he could really stay in the gym due to health.
    I don't know if the game just started to slow down for him. But he looked better.
    Dare I say Nards deserved more minutes last year than he got.
    However Davis was clearly better than him last year and Nards is not a 4.

    One of the reasons why I believe Portland let Davis walk is because of the season Nards had last year. Nards looked like an NBA role player.
    They're confident between him, and Collins the backup 5 is on lock.
    However if Nards comes in and regresses, it will be a mistake letting Davis go. Even if Collins & Nurk both show out.
    Until we see how Nards plays, we won't know.

    I'm one of the biggest Nards haters. I will also be very salty if Nards plays well and we get constant threads by swish3

    I will be thrilled if this forum is inundated with @swish3 threads as a result of surprising success from Meyers.

    And I'll gladly merge them all if appropriate.
