    Thought we had a big man coach?
    A 7’ starting nba center that has been ti the line 4 times in 10 games? Thats pathetic.

    Some of the PGs available late Oct, not sure which have already signed: Goran Dragic. John Wall, George Hill. Austin Rivers, Elfrid Payton. I saw that Isaiah Thomas Jr looking for a job.

    Why does anyone want a point guard?

    Unless it's a passing point guard, they just hijack the offense, slow the pace, and dribble the air out of the ball while better players don't touch the ball.

    However, the Blazers could definitely use a defender who can guard point guards on defense.

    Not when he's facing the hoop from 15 feet out. He drills those like they're free points, which they are.

    Skylar Mays isn't necessary if Sharpe is in the game. He definitely could be a helper, but he's not the guy who should be driving the bus.

    Shaedon's passing is a thing of beauty.

    6 assists and 4 rebs for Shae. People here forget he's 20 while constantly criticizing him. Young guys dont usually have all round games like this when shots aren't falling

    That wrap has to be bugging him

    Yeah, I spoke too soon. The Blazers still have no idea where to get Ayton the ball for free points.

    Billups must have a playbook that he uses without regard to what his players are good at.
