    I’m ok with Olsheys reasoning when it comes to the g league. He prefers young guys stick around the locker room, and develop behind the scenes against actual nba players. A perfect example is Moses. He’s putting up super efficient numbers in the g league but idk how much he’s actually developing. If you watch a game you’ll see he’s got a massive size advantage against essentially everyone he goes up against. There would be a lot more development if he stuck around in Portland practicing against guys like Whiteside.

    Yes I agree, but if they had their own team they could run practices and coach games the way the organization wanted them to.

    seems like a weird game to bring Nurkic back. Against the Rockets and their small-ball roster?...really? Houston has been really successful at forcing other teams to match instead of the other way around

    it does come after a 3 day break between games so I imagine they are anticipating some practice time

    Wait. A Blazer was hesitant to give Jason "Venetian Blinds" Quick a scoop? Say it ain't so!

    If YOU'D been out for a year, wouldn't you want to be guarded by someone 6 inches shorter than you?

    It's a Sunday ABC "Showcase" game. Might be a coincidence, maybe not.

    Seems fine to me as we won't need him for many minutes.

    that's only half the game though...who is he going to chase around on defense between PJ Tucker, Robert Covington, and Daniel House?

    Something about this strikes me a tad funny. If "It's time", why is the time 9 days from now? If he's not ready yet, how does he know he'll be ready then?

    good point

    so then, this may be more of a target-date than a date-certain (sounds like my high school dating career)

    Very well could be exactly what @Rastapopoulos said--figured the "little" team would be the easiest start.
