I wonder if our scouting department already had an eye on Essengue and that had anything to do with us scheduling them in the preseason. I think...
Very good, from what I understand. There were a few highlights in that video of him blocking 3-pointers or reading the passing lanes for steals and...
Noa Essengue highlights. [MEDIA]
We beat the team missing the 3-time MVP, though, we crushed the Grizzlies and we took the Cavs to OT on the road when they were on a winning streak...
I think the highest I've seen is 7 or 8, but usually right around 10 or so. Second half of the lottery usually. McNeeley's in that range, too, and...
One could counter that we've been without some of our better players in a lot of those games, too. People might not like Ayton, but his production is...
This is a great example of why, if you can't get a Flagg or Bailey in the lottery, drafting a guy like Knueppel makes sense for the Blazers. He's the...
Flagg played fantastic today against Baylor, but it's worth noting that a couple of the tall shooters that have been mocked to the Blazers in drafts...
I see that and I think I'd go for Essengue who can be that kind of defender or close to it but has so much more upside on the offensive end.
Agree they need a shooter. Disagree that it's Jase because he's a PG, and we have that position filled. There are several really, really good wing...
Deni is perfect for the modern NBA in that he doesn't need a position. He can play wherever you need and do at worst a serviceable job. I think...
I don't mind him taking the 3s, but I don't like it when I feel he settles for them. There are 2-4 times every game where I can tell he's made up his...
He had that putback dunk and then all of a sudden got too excited, lost his poise, tried to follow it up with a couple of highlight plays and then...
Because just getting the ball and shooting it almost immediately is a lot easier than navigating through defenders and teammates to get to the hoop...
Who are you talking to? There's no one there.
If that was true those teams would have traded for Deni in the offseason. He was available and a lot of contending teams had more to offer than the...
The odds always are against everyone. Next draft you've got more elite talent at the top. If the Blazers are playing with this Scoot, Shae, Toumani,...
My ideal scenario is to finish just outside the play-in and move up through the lottery. If you don't get the first pick, then I'm probably drafting...
You mean taking Bailey over Flagg or that Dybantsa and Peterson are better prospects than Flagg? I think a lot of draft guys probably would agree...
This is where we disagree: I see Deni as building through the draft. I don't think building through the draft is just picking guys if the guys for...
Separate names with a comma.
