Record at the moment means little. Minne is underachieving, Portland over. That ain't just my opinion. It's based on analyst predictions prior to Game One.
Your query at 17ppg excludes Paul and Rondo, who I'd say are better and their WS rankings agree. Not counting Bron I think 8th is realistic with guys like Jennings/Lawson/Conley right there but Damian arguably better. And I see you've edited to include Paul at least.
I didn't mean to exclude anyone. I just picked a couple of stats kind of around Damian's. http://bkref.com/tiny/gwAul Here's Damian among all the players with at least 10 points and 6 assists. Maybe 11th is more realistic.
Honestly, I think Pek, AK and Shved are your three best players. Love is just a stat junkie and Rubio can't shoot to save his life.
Our announcer just said, speaking of Pekovic "he's just got a nose for the ball, or should I say forehead?"
Yo, Minnitrolls, Do any of you boners still think the Blazers overpaid when they matched for Nic? Pek can play a bit. Do you think you'll have to max him to keep him? Do any of you remember what you were told here about Brandon's injuries? One of you fools wanted us to rank Dame among PG's for you. How much homerism do you see there? How about you rank Rickie for us? Would you trade Ricky straight up for Dame? Go Blazers
Yes know your place boi. A fan of a terrible franchise with a shitty BM and players that don't even want to stay. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Maybe someday you will see winning once again
They lost 20-something out of the last 20-something games. I forget the actual number but it was something like that. Truly pathetic.
and the fact that Chris Wallace was David Kahn when David Kahn was Dwight Jaynes. #darius #larrymillerletter
