    Murray doesn't get guarded like Dame does

    Shows what having that secondary playmaker does for you, especially when that guy is actually arguably the best playmaker in the league.

    Who is this “us” you’re referring to? You do realize this is a Blazers message board...

    Clippers triple-mortgaged the house for a two-year window to win a chip. Leonard and George can leave after next season and the Clippers will be in the weeds for a decade after giving up all their draft picks. They are already committed to $114MM in salary next year--how are they going to get better than they are now? They need a crafty GM.

    They’ve never played in the playoffs as duos, and Lillard>>>>Jokic and Murray in a real Game 7 in Denver last year.

    So, what’s not close?

    Dumb question... if Paul George is available next season. Do you sign him or not?
