    If he builds on his recent form we will finally have something to get excited about going forward. I want us to have a Portland equivalent of Booker, Turner, Mitchell etc. a young player who was not a top 5 pick but turned out pretty awesome.

    I'm starting to feel that you've never actually felt what hate actually feels like... no one who has would ever throw it around as freely as you do, joking or not.

    I think the plan has always been to showcase our vets with expiring contracts to start the season. Get whatever second round picks we can at the deadline from some playoff needy teams and then let the rooks finish off the season. Now if we're like a top 3 or 4 team in the west maybe we keep on to the vets but if we're in the bottom of 8 I think we'll see it play out like I said.

    That literally makes no sense because

    1) Thats your opinion

    and

    2) You don't fully read anything. you have a myopic, confirmation bias viewpoint on any negativity even when people put positives in the same sentence.

    Learn what real hate is, then stop throwing around the word freely.

    Zach could get his first career start today, and maybe some minutes for Swanigan

    My bad, Ive just had a lot of times where people write things that make no sense logically. I'm just doing my civic duty to help you out.

    Maybe at PF, but at C it's definitely the Nurkic era.

    ***Black Slang Alert***

    Hater.

    Derived from the word "PlayaHata".

    A playhata is one who ACTIVELY says bad things about someone in an EFFORT to get with their lady.
    This word has been shortened and has been used out of context by people who are simply giving an opinion.

    Giving your opinion is not hating.

    am I the only one who's doesnt like his matchup with Whiteside if he starts? Seems like Whiteseide is one of the 3-4 bigs in the league I'd be worried about matching up with Collins right now. Not saying he is better than all the centers in the league minus a handful, just saying I dont like the matchup strength wise. I could see him getting in foul trouble real quick trying to keep Whiteside at bay.

    Is he going to foul him on the bench while he's wearing a suit? I mean, I know Collins is trying to make a name for himself, but dont do it to an injured guy in a suit.
