yeah, Dame, Jrue, and Grant bend the curve one direction. But Hansen, Rupert, Cissoko, & Clingan bend it the other direction. The 4 youngsters have scored a total of 106 points, and 81 of those are from Clingan. The three oldsters have scored a total of 363 points and one isn't playing. You...

that wasn't me. I said I'd take Clingan over DA

what was his offensive on/off last season compared to this season? Here's the answer: it was +0.8 which was a better on/off than Simons, Ayton, Grant., and Reath. meaning, either his role in the offense this season is fucking stupid or we're dealing with a massive sample size and rotation skew...

his turnover rate has dropped from 15.9% last season to 6.5% this season; so he's catching more balls than you claim. He has a higher conversion rate at the rim than Avdija and Murray, so his finishing ability is not quite as bad as you imply he has a higher offensive rating than Grant, Avdija...

actually, Portland is not a young team anymore: Obviously, Dame is dragging that down a little. But for too long Blazer fans had the escape valve of pointing at average age and expecting that to mean lots of upside. Don't have that to lean on anymore

yeah...it kind of dilutes the power of smartassery when you combine it with dumbassery

everybody is a comedian...by the way, what is mmath?

in the West: biggest surprise: none really biggest disappointment: Clippers no surprise at all: * Morant is still a head case * Zion has only played half of the Pels games * Jokic, already unbelievable, who should be a 5-time MVP, is at career highs in rebounding, assists, PER, TS%...

how is this calculated?

maybe...but there are always offsets the Utah, Denver, and OKC games were all lose-able games that went Portland's way. All 2 point wins. Those one possession games usually balance out between wins and losses over a season, even for good teams. If you count the Minny game, and since it was...

about Clingan: the coaches need to step in and adjust the game he plays. It's like the ghost of Meyers Leonard came to Clingan in a dream and said: "hey man, you should chuck more three's; that's what I did after my rookie year. Just don't record yourself playing any online games" % of FGA's at...

defense does travel...but you know what? that's not much of an accomplishment because we know that HCP travels too....I mean, if he can travel... but your point is correct. Good defense is more consistent; it doesn't need periods of momentum or hot streaks, although those can help. But most...

fuck Ayton...that's what I think

it was an OT game but still, 45 shots is crazy. 46 points on 45 shots is not good at all; it's chucking Kobe scored 60 on 50 shots (1.20 points/shot) MJ scored 64 on 49 shots (1.31 points/shot) Brunson scored 61 on 47 shots (1.30 points/shot) Kobe scored 41 on 47 shots - chucking at it's...
