    Since they own zero picks until 2031 I don't see why it really matters.

    Well at least Ants the only overpaid mediocre vet we have.

    That is except Ayton.

    Err and except for Grant.

    Oh and Thybulle is overpaid too.

    Yes finally Timelord.

    Cronin has really done a phenomenal job building a roster...

    Me after Preseason:
    Clingan will be an all-star, Blazers going 82-0.

    Me after 4 games:
    checking tankathon....

    You after the preseason put way way too much weight in the preseason. Preseason to regular season is a bigger jump than regular season to playoffs.

    Bronny James with a string of DNP’s

    As has been noted earlier, this will likely be a continuing trend this season. No sense giving him minutes over their better players just because his dad is LBJ.

    Having been dead-set against it, I kinda wish we'd've taken the Heat deal. I mean, it's totally their fault we didn't because they were so arrogant about it, but gifting Boston a championship and ending up with two perpetually injured players, while simultaneously ruining the Bucks was not ideal. I guess I'll change my tune if those Bucks picks are great, but that's too far in the future.

    I feel like we got a lot of constant Nurk updates last season. Not as many to start this season.

    Tyler Hendricks non-contact injury looks absolutely brutal. It has now been announced that he's off for the year.

    Fractured fibula and dislocated ankle. Ouch. That’s going to take some time to recover from.

    Sadly, yes. I thought he'd be squeezed for minutes but he's playing about the same as Suggs. If we offered them Ant I imagine they'd offer us some combination of Anthony, Howard (nepo babies) and maybe Da Silva (didn't we bring him in twice?) No chance of Black now, alas.

    I think the Warriors are for real. They blew out the Pelicans after the 1st quarter. I think they will be blowing out a lot of teams this year.

    that game tonight when he had 16 assists, he only had 1 turnover. That's phenomenal of for a big man
