    Not sure why folks are clamoring for him. Doesn't look like he can do anything but shoot.

    There were whispers of John Collins, not Zack Collins.

    Yay!


    But Atlanta just seems a bad place for Doncic to end up. No fanbase.

    His shot is robotic out to Dame range, he is an excellent passer and can penetrate better than anyone we have not named Dame or CJ. He looks to me like everything we hoped Crabbe would be.

    It obviously meant something. I believe the trade up was called as well.

    No it was Zach. I believe it was @TBpup on it.

    Atlanta is the greyhound bus stop of the NBA

    I posted it above, but there was a report that Olshey was at a Gonzaga game scouting Zach. I thought there was more too, but nobody thought he could get up high enough to draft him.

    And I misspoke about the Nurk "deal" being known. We were just mentioned as a potential destination in a number of places... here's one example:

    https://www.foxsports.com/nba/story...ams-that-should-trade-for-jusuf-nurkic-012117

    and as well as on blazersedge etc. And the Zach Collins thing is above and elsewhere, so I'm claming 2/3 veracity on my original statement.

    We weren’t picking in the lottery. It probably wasn’t Portland’s call.

    By us... No mention from Neil.

    This is my point and you don't seem to be refuting it.

    But why are we even wasting time talking about what was or wasn’t reported? All one needs to do is watch/read about DiVincenzo to know he falls right in line with what Olshey is looking for. Neil isn’t a tough nut to crack.
