This might make sense about why they should advance, but not for why they should win it all. They would still have two tough games at the end and I would argue that not playing against tough competition before that actually hurts them in the finals.
Detroit Pistons W 17 - L 65 key team rankings: O 29th D 27th FG% 30th *bonus bad* Blazers moved up in lottery and stole their draft pick Scoot Henderson. summary; I'm glad they hired Coach Monty Williams, a terrific head coach. Getting Cade Cunningham up and running will certainly help. Jaden Ivey is a ballhog. Pistons should trade Ivey to Boston for Derrick White.
Halliburton/Hart off the bench are significantly more effective than Brunson/Edwards (at least today against Greece). Former Blazer Georgios Papagiannis playing very well today.
I guess we should be tracking possible future Blazers.........Bogdan Bogdanovic paced Serbia anew with 17 points, five rebounds, five assists, and two steals while Nikola Jovic had 17 markers, three boards, and four dimes as they inched closer to group stage sweep. 23 mins ago – via BEA MICALLER @ GMANetwork.com
Yeah, that was a new one for me. I guess since markers are "points" on a map....they use that term in sports.
I will admit I like watching him play on the offensive side of the ball. Always seems under control, and never rushes things. Good vision, and a good passer with good handles for a 4. And despite his shooting percentage as a rookie, he passes the eye test as a stretch 4. I don't necessarily think he would be a good complement next to Grant, since neither are elite rebounders, but I do think he is a solid backup for Grant.
Clearly the Blazers are waiting for this tournament to finish before trading for him. They can't get a physical done while he's across the Pacific.
Meh. I don't see it with Jovic. He can be a rotational guy, but I don't think he has top 100 potential. Also, Grant will not be here long term. Im guessing he will be traded by February
I'm at work, so no time, but I could easy find similar clip with Mario Henzonia. Is he good enough? We talking about Lillard's trade for christs sake!
