I tend to listen to Dame when he has opinions about these things. Check the middle video clip. I had to take a screenshot because the actual video is no longer in KGW's vault.
I remember when Jackson was new in the league he was complaining about not starting. I remember thinking he didn't deserve to and saying that probably meant he wasn't a good locker room guy. He's never looked like he enjoyed the game which could rub people the wrong way.
That's a great point. If there is one thing that the coaches do in Portland it's making guys much improved shooters. He may never be Chris Mullen but I bet they get him to a respectable level.
Give me Josh Green in the first and Robert Woodard in the second and I might scream like a little girl. But I'd never admit to it.
Very similar styles that would fit PERFECTLY on this team. Both can handle the ball well enough to create for themselves and others. Both have simple, repeatable...
I could see both sides agreeing to CJ for Dinwiddie, Levert and a 1st. It looks kind of lopsided for us but the Nets probably believe they are 1 piece from being the best in the east. They have plenty of depth to afford giving up 2 contributors for 1 final piece. The pick is no use to them...

I'm surprised how quick this forum is to give up on Collins. Then saying Gordon is better than him defensively is ridiculous. He did just come back from shoulder surgery. He's young. He's gonna continue to improve.
If he's involved in a trade then there better be a good big coming back or...
PG-Pippen
SG-Kobe
SG-Jordan
F-Giannis
C-Tim Duncan
The only question is would there be enough spotlight to fit those egos (Kobe/MJ) on the same team. This would probably be the best defensive 5 ever put together. Scoring points would be the last of your worries. No Lebron because he is too...
This just shows that the league thinks the fans are stupid.
The subject of speeding up games comes around every single offseason. How can we shorten the games? Make it more fan friendly? How about cutting some of the GD commercials to begin with. The teams don't need that much time...
Not a troll, I just wasn't on here last night and when I skimmed through the other threads I didn't see it discussed. I wouldn't have started a new thread if I had seen it. Just wanted to see if anyone else saw the same thing I did.
