    With all of our guys injured, I wonder if there's anything we could do to keep him on under one of those medical hardship things?

    dont think he understood the assignment ;). Going to sneak in these occasional wins especially with some of the teams we are going to be playing late in the season. Bad karma to be upset about wins

    yeah like did people really think we would lose 19 straight games or whatever that’s left? Looking at the schedule we’ll probably win a couple more. But we should still finish with a worse record than the spurs.

    Yeah we have pretty easy schedule these last few games with teams like Houston twice. Think the most likely spot is 6th

    His style of play and body remind me so much of Brandon Roy.

    Not quite as good of a handle but styles are similar.

    similar body types but Roy was a bad defender; Hart isn't

    We never won shit and have had multiple franchise crushing injuries when I rooted for wins. I’ll take my chances

    Exactly and as I alluded to last week when we were getting embarrassed, I doubt the Blazers will want that to happen at home in front of their fans who paid money to see them. They will still try to tank, but my guess is they will be more competitive than they are on the road.

    sure. Roy was great on offense, but he seemed to have a lot of trouble deferring anything to teammates

    Time for Josh Hart to come down with a case of plantar fasciitis.

    looks like they had another ten day to give him. Always thought it was two max. Guessing they scratched that because of covid? Or maybe it was one of those hardship things since we also signed Dunn

    I read somewhere that it was due to the hardship exception. If there isn't any limit under that, these guys could be on 10 day'ers thru the rest of the season.

    Maybe Eubanks only got 10 day because Nurk’s coming back.
