Keeping our pick? This might be a Lottery year

Discussion in 'Portland Trail Blazers' started by TBpup, Dec 5, 2021.

Make the pick for the Future.....or trade it for 'now'?

  1. One last attempt

  2. Build for the future....one player won't make enough of a difference

  3. Get bad enough to where the pick makes an immediate impact

    Yes on offense he is a perimeter player but he will have to go inside at some point and I doubt we are gonna stick him on wings at the other end on D where he will most likely get bulldozed by stronger players inside. Just my opinion but it’s a real risky top 5 pick.

    He's not gonna play down low and he'll put on weight. He already looks like he's gained a little bit. Look at Giannis/AD.

    Yeah Chet is more of a PF than a C. He can guard the perimeter. He can knock down 3s. Got good handle. He block shots. Rebound well. Pass well. What I like about him is that when he’s not scoring he still impacting the game through his defense, passing, rebounding, and intensity. I can’t say the same about smith and Banchero. Those guys might be the better scorer but I don’t think they’re the better players

    I’ll reserve judgement for the NCAA tournament for Chet.

    Gonzaga plays the little sisters of the blind week in and out.

    Chet wouldn't get half of those points if he was a Blazer because many of them came off of lob passes.

    Since when did 4/23 become 1/2 lol. The stretch where he scored 11 straight point didn’t feature a single lob. If you’re including pick and roll, when did it become a bad thing to be able to score in the pick and roll? Chet does it better than Nurk honestly

    If you looked at my previous posts, you’d know that I’ve mentioned those performances before.

    He had a whopping 2 points against Texas. 5 against Texas Tech. 10 against BAMA on 33% shooting.

    Meanwhile, Zags have also played:
    Dixie State
    Alcorn State
    Portland
    San Diego
    Bellarmine
    Central Michigan
    Tartleton State
    Merrimack
    Northern Arizona
    Northern Bama
    Pepperdine
    Santa Clara
    San Francisco

    LOL which list is longer? The 5 teams you showed or the shitty ass teams I just listed? Who is Gonzaga more consistently playing? Good teams or scrub teams?

    Thats what I thought, send my love to your wife, daughter(s) and momma. Hope the whorehouse is treating them well.

    He’s also gotten acclimated to the system in that time. Hard for a young freshman to play the top teams right out the gate. Trying to figure his role next to an All American big.

    Your dig was more at Gonzaga schedule than Chet. So take yo momma and sisters wherever you need to

    Not true. There's 4 tournament teams in the WCC. Gonzaga beat San Diego who's not a tournament team but are ranked better analytically than Georgia who Jabar Smith and Auburn struggled to beat today.

    Didn't think the green font was necessary. Apparently, I was mistaken.

    Chet had 20 point, 17 rebound, 6 assist, 5 block, and a steal against byu. Tell me who else can fill the stat sheet like him?

    Not saying he's this good, but...

    Isn't his game in college mildly comparable to Durant's?

    I can't believe you compared him to Durant. Unreal.
