Agreed. Ant has shown to be a below average starter. He can get hot and score a lot of points (so he has value), but he gives most of them back...
When have we seen Nurk, Watford, & Grant ever play together before?
Ant either needs to be a 6th man, or else traded.
Again - I'm not seeing much of a difference in situation. Both Portland & Detroit are in the bottom 1/3 of NBA cities for most players.
Being a sieve on defense is not necessarily a bad thing. A player could be like a #200 sieve and be an excellent defender. Unfortunately our...
Agreed. Dame doesn't have quite that much value.
I don't. How many all-star votes has he received? I'm guessing not many... He was an average level starter. Maybe slightly better than average......
Yes - S&T would not impact Portland. The team receiving Grant would have to be below the hard-cap line (~$6M above the tax line). Since Portland...
Are the Blazers really THAT much different than his situation in Detroit?
CJ was never 'near all-star' level
I agree he has more potential than CJ did. I still have a tough time seeing him as a net positive player with how bad he is on D & how he gets...
Why wait 5-6 games? Just do it now....
Yah, Butler is not an NBA player... He may be able to eek out a year or two more in his career, but not much more.
I'll play this game... but I disagree with your rankings. Dame Nurk Hart Grant Thybulle Sharpe Powell Ant Watford Reddish Eubanks Little
We have a first rumor of possible coaching change......
It's mostly do to the interest rates. SVB bought a lot of 10-year treasuries as collateral to hold onto. When the interest rates rise, the value of...
I can't comprehend how anyone can believe this. Anytime Dame goes to the bench - the offense goes to $#!t.
Guards: I agree, it's solid - but Portland DESPERATELY needs a legitimate backup PG. Last one we've had is Evan Turner... Steve Blake before that...
I thought this was a new post.... First thing I thought of was this: https://media.tenor.com/1DgKXzT0hgcAAAAM/michael-scott.gif [IMG]
I agree with your Nurk take. $15M is a fair market rate, so I'm not mad about him getting $17M. Simon's contract should have been around $15-18M...
