    tough one, but if ant plays and we play with effort, this team can compete with anyone (at least in the regular season)

    should be a good one, well see

    He won us the first game against Phoenix along with Grant. He still needs to dunk more and increase mental toughness. I've been please with his performance as of late.

    It's not sustainable. Glad he had a good week--wonder if he can have two in a row.

    If Hart isn't going to shoot the ball, I'd like to see Little get/take more shots as part of the offense.
    He's right behind Lillard in 2-point % too at 57%.

    Why? You asked what haters would say--I simply gave you an example.

    Good deeds never go unpunished...

    You are absolutely right. But you have to remember that Hakeem has been retired for 20 years now.

    Now, if he looked like Hakeem did 25 years ago, I would be excited.

    That's actually not true, I am pretty pleased by his performance this year. He actually looks like a starter NBA center that is worth his salary, which is pretty much the first time in 3? years that he has looked like someone worth the money he is paid. Let's hope he keeps it up or even gets better. He certainly looked great against the baby Rockets who played 2 6-9 guys, less than 240lbs guys at center... but Hakeem? Only if you put it in slow-mo

    Will he actually come off the bench like many want? Would make sense if he's restricted.

    I don’t think he will be traded.

    But I’d love to see Shaedon as the starting 3 with Dame and Ant.

    Dude better be an AS by the time we even think about trading him. Imo, if he doesn’t get the return of an AS, there’s almost no point of moving him yet.

    Somewhere in Miami, there is a Heat fan on a forum, and he is no doubt posting something like: "Figures..both Lillard AND Simons coming back..We can't catch a break."
    lol.
    Let's get this one.

    I think Chauncey is toying with the idea of removing Hart, and starting Winslow.
    Eventually, it will be Shaedon's.
