    I heard Mo would probably be okay to play.

    I have no doubt the Blazers will win big. Just to fuck with us.

    You guys think Givony is talking about a conversation he had with Mark Few about Zach here? I think it is of you fill in the blanks. He was at PK80 too, so the timeline makes sense.

    Probably doesn't matter much but thought it was noteworthy.

    I’d start either Meyers or Vonleh at center.

    Lottery picks (Zach) not playing for a good team makes sense. Not playing for a marginal team doesn’t. Jordan Bell plays real minutes for the best team in the nba. Zach Collins just sits and watches average NBA talent. Seems like a waste.

    Who’s he going to play over? They’re not gonna bench Ed. Vonleh deserves minutes. Aminu is better at the four. I guess the most logical thing would be to move Aminu back to SF full time, which might open up minutes, but those should be going to Vonleh imo.

    If it's Zach they're talking about...I guess he's been texting Few saying that he thinks he made a mistake leaving Gonzaga early. Isn't playing at all, youngest guy on the team, has no life and plays playstation all day...

    Again, he'll get over it but it was interesting insight into how lonely nba life can be as a young player.

    Ed and Aminu do nothing for the team, other than barely helping to keep our heads above water. The fact that they're part of the regular rotation is a major reason we're so damn mediocre.

    It's a tough game, they don't lose yet with Chris Paul, so for we have a chance to win we gonna need a big perfomance for Damian Lillard

    Jordan Bell wouldn't play for this team... Plus Jordan Bell isn't going to get much better than he is right now.

    Yeah. All players max out their abilities averaging 10 minutes a game.
