    Hood is most likely yeah.
    Curry/Hood will split minutes.
    Layman at the 2 is an option as well.

    My vote would be for Rodney Hood.

    Should be interesting. Hood would give us a very big team. We might rather have Curry’s shooting though.

    More on Woj...

    Best possible news for McCollum and Blazers, who avoided a serious injury.

    Yes Sir!

    Ive never seen anyone post saying hes one of the worst players on the team.

    Overpaid? -> sure

    Duplication of skills? -> yep

    Shoots too much & needs to pass more? -> yep

    Suggesting that the team might be better by trading CJ for a significant upgrade at a forward position? -> yep

    One of the worst players on the team? -> Nope. Not even close.

    So does Stotts plug in Hood/Curry and run the same offense or will Nurk get more touches?

    He actually grabbed his lower leg.

    When I replayed the incident it looked like he took a knee to his lower leg. Hopefully the injury was just painful and not that serious.

    I have been open to trading CJ, not because I think he sucks, but because of a few other things. The Blazers really need a two way wing who doesnt decide to show up only when Saturns moons align properly. I think CJ would do better in a PG type role that Dame has now. I also believe they could use him as an asset to fill other needs.
    Definitely think he’s a solid scorer, and valuable to the team though.

    There are a few guys who really dislike CJ, and CJ’s game. Maybe they think the Blazers are better without him. I dont know but you have to be a little messed up to hope someone gets hurt.

    Okay, I'm trying to respond as nice as possible but are you saying there are people that think CJ is the worst player on the team but they want him to be on the team still?

    Tell me how that makes sense? If it doesn't make sense then it is not a stretch to imply that if someone thinks CJ is the worst player on the team that the person wouldn't want CJ on the team anymore. In fact I would almost guarantee if someone actually said that they either said it in the flow of a game and didn't really mean it literally or they really do hate CJ and don't want him on the team.

    I just don't get your response to my post if you are then going to say, "Did I say that?" Where were you going with this if not there?

    Don’t think anyone has ever wished for CJ to get hurt. I know I haven’t. But I’d be lying if I said I thought we were a better team with him. And that’s not necessarily a shot at CJ, but more so at Stotts for how he uses him.

    Hate that it took an injury to force his hand, but now maybe we’ll see actual basketball instead of just leaning on two dudes to do everything offensively, while everyone else functions only to get those two their shots.
