I hate to say this, but Terrance Jones, whose salary should be very small, is probably the answer. He Skill/$ should be huge.
Salary Implications were part of my vote for Nurkic. Also, retention. It's not obvious Boogie will re-sign with them, much more likely Nurkic...
Need to win 12 of 17 to get to .500. I don't think we'll make it, but I'm totally rooting for it to happen. Go Blazers!
yes.
lol. Here I was thinking that this would be some insightful argument about small vs. large media market teams....
The other team did their fair share of low quality shots, as well. Judgment calls suck, but getting calls factually incorrect is always frustrating...
The truth is that had they pulled their heads out of their asses (i.e. gotten a better deal), they could be a much better team than they are now.
It's amazing how different nbadraft.net and draftexpress.com are. One has Leaf at 12, the other has him at 26.
We'll talk luxury tax in the offseason, but I'm pretty sure that we'll have to trade him to get below the tax line.
1) It was easy to get the trade analysis wrong. Nurkic is acting like a completely different player on the blazers that he was on the Nugs. 2)...
After last night's game, I'm willing to Homer Up. Nurkic is much younger than Whiteside (by 5 years), and, now that he's a Blazer, much fewer...
We're on a 4 game winning streak, baby! Toot Away.
Right now he's basically a 15/10/5 guy with 1 1/2 steals and 2 blocks (16.5/9.6/4.5 with 1.6/1.9) with a PER of 24.0 and a shooting % of .539 and FT%...
Meyers is in a current happy place where the defense think they have to guard him like they do Nurkic. Common sense will eventually prevail, and...
No. It's currently #20, and they have a hard remaining schedule, so the Hawks will probably catch them - very soon. In which case our pick becomes...
Aminu can be frustrating at times, but the advanced stats have said that we are a significantly better defensive team when he's on the court. I'm...
This is the height of Nurkic's game. He's excited, playing really hard. He won't be able to keep it up, and there'll be a natural decrease....
I think Nurkic is really rejuvenating Harkless. Tired of playing hard? No problem, have some free dunks.
Just to add on to this: Season after season after season, I watched this team struggle a little bit (or more) and then go into an easy schedule, fans...
Loss tonight makes it 4 in a row. Only a half game better than the hawks, who they play next. If they lose, our pick moves into the #19 position :)
