    Scoot does not suck ass. Only a person with a limited understanding of the game would think that. Another person who knows more than every GM out there. There are no absolutes but what is more likely: a) you, anonymous POR "fan" are correct and Scoot is awful, or b) GMs etc are right and Scoot is special but is starting off like most 19 y/o would on a rebuilding team. He is finding his legs during a season where wins mean NOTHING?

    Sorry I will go with the real experts everytime. Scoot was and still would be a lottery pick.

    Sent a message…

    Like hack a Shaq… And Billy Donovan wants to cry about how it’s a shame for the game or this or that, when the truth is that if you want to win, you need to analyze and exploit your opponents weaknesses.

    Credit to the Celtics for this. Sucks for Drummond, but not as much as his FT shooting.

    Coach Spoelstra getting a divorce. Now we know why Miami wanted Dame so bad. Group Separation therapy.

    damn, Portland really screwed him over before tricking the Warriors into trading picks for him. Damn you Joe Cronin!

    Yeah…they’re drunk. Hield isn’t even going to re-sign with them unless he gets upwards of $25m for multiple years, imo.

    I’ll always be the first to admit to being one of those dumbasses that wanted Wiseman instead of the picks, LOL.

    Buddy Hield got clobbered by the Blazers. 1-6 from deep, 2 turnovers, only 1 rebound. Career tanker
