    Elleby can guard a big better than Snell.

    This looks like Dame and CJ type of game CJ with 19 attempts and Simons with 17.

    CJ with the most inconsequential 30 ive seen this season.

    At least good stats from him and Norm. Build that trade value

    Does playing at the same time as an NFL playoff game mean we can call ourselves a playoff team now?

    Well... DeRozan just slaughtered us.

    There's just no doubt in my mind that the right move is to be shopping every active player on this roster. The only two guys who are currently roster players that I need to see with this team next season are injured (Dame and Nas). Make as many trades as you have to, including as many teams as you have to, to get a couple of actual all star level players who complement Dame.

    After we trade just about everyone away, the day after the deadline we need to convert Watford to a regular roster player and try to lock him up on a three year rookie minimum deal.

    Short post game show before the 49ers take on the Rams this afternoon. The Blazers don't play any defense today and the Bulls take advantage while cruising to a victory. Come talk about the game!

    Daryl needs an elite perimeter scorer and that is the one thing that CJ definitely is. Oh and CJ is also a pretty damn good passer into the post when he wants to be.

    Agreed, I was saying that as a mentality he may have adopted being “raised” by Dame & CJ.

    this was either a case of Portland's good offense being worse than their worst defense...or, a case of talent wins...or both

    I didn't know anything about Ayo Dusunmu, but he really impressed me today. Big PG's who hustle like that with his kind of vision are valuable

    Nurk....not nearly as good when playing a decent center somewhere near his size.

    And ban the 3-guard lineup.....FOREVER! They can score, but are also a complete sieve on defense.

    12:30 pm game on a Sunday with our best player out and the team at a crossroads.

    The NFL thread was popping so there was that, too.
