    The OP had it right. I just re-watched Moe's interview he totally said he worked on his outside shot. I got him confused with Ed Davis, who was the interview before Moe. I'm totally in the Moe 3 pointer being HUGE camp. I think he should be the starter even if his outside shot hasn't improved. If it has, hold onto your hats.

    Moe's worth a 2nd rounder, I suppose, but only if it's a highly protected one!

    He's our ONLY real SF. We have a TON of bigs (albeit none of which I'm hugely excited about). I think it would be foolish to increase our PF/C position by 20% while reducing our SF position by 60%. Good wings are so hard to come by, while bigs - even now - are much easier to plug-n-play as we've seen with guys like Rolo, Davis, and Plumlee.

    If harkless really improved his three point shot Portland basically has an all star caliber player on their hands. I'll go with that over the occasional plumlee jumper.
