    agree, a sleeper pick with upside - one key injury away from a possible nice pick

    Yup. Warriors are so old that they can go either way.

    Tyler Herro and Duncan Robinson are long term overpays. Exactly what Cronin has been shuffling off the Blazers.

    Yes, Cronin and Jody sign the extended contracts. But Portland is able to flip their recently signed extended players, unlike Miami's "you guys suck!" salary cap duds.

    Wow, you are doubling down on this. I assumed your first post about the reigning 6th man of the year sucking was sarcasm.
    Did you not watch him last year? He is a 230 lb guard. That is 20 lbs heavier than our starting power forward

    We are never set at center. Alex Sarr is already on my mind.

    I think we got 2 centers that can really benefit from going to a smaller club, with smaller expectations and not as much preesure

    The only reason they couldn’t find a trade for him is due to his injury. Competing teams don’t want an injury affecting their run. We, on the other hand, have all the time to let him heal from his injury. He will likely be available closer to the deadline and will be dealt to a team like the 6ers or Clips for a 1st rounder.

    Pretty sure they'll trade him for something of real value before the season starts instead. An 18.2 PER last year shooting 44% from 3 on 4.4 attempts does not suck.
