Honestly i think we should consider to bring in a veteran PG and give Anfernee another year to bulk up and learn how to play defense.

If we're serious about winning a championship we can't give meaningful minutes to Simons, he's just not ready unfortunately.

In my opinion, this is the worst thing you can do to develop players. You let him take his lumps. Get plenty of film so the coaches can show him what he's doing wrong. He needs minutes to learn. By doing that during the season you can get him ready by the playoffs. What you're suggesting just pushes his learning curve another year down the road.

Yes, Herzonja is better. Turner air-balled outside of 15ft. Sometimes inside.

Yep. Kobe airballed a ton of playoff 3s as a rook and it worked out for him

Good points. He's physically and mentally capable of learning what he needs to do. What he needs is experience and coaching.

Bazemore's energy flying all around the court will hopefully be contagious.

Hezonja says STFU @BonesJones!

 

[blazerfan11]

Wows that was Nasty Mr Simons. taking it right at Conley.

 

[B-Roy]

Simons is awful on defense....but I'm not super worried. Defense at the guards is not really that important. I suspect as the season goes on he's someone that they're just going to camp him on the other team's worst player.

 

[rotary111]

This is a good lesson for Simons.

 

[Portland2014]

nice move by Anfernee on Conley!

ahahah

 

[hoopsjock]

When was the last time we had a defensive player that got in the passing lanes as often and as quickly as Bazemore does? Gerald Wallace?

Hezonja: "Suck it again @BonesJones"

1st half: 2nd unit looks awful

2nd half: 2nd unit looks unstoppable

Hezonia is already entrenched in this lineup and I love it

They're hitting shots, particularly a lot of contested shots. I don't know if I would really count on this consistently.

 

[Portland2014]

CJ is in midseason form

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Tolliver looking better. Even on defense, especially on rotations and decision-making.

I know, plus it's preseason, lol.

I’m very creeped out by the jazz dance team and how none of the people cheer. What a strange environment all around. So creeeeepy

 

[illmatic99]

They're paying Bogdanovic 18 mil a year

 

[The Professional Fan]

They have a midget bear

For 4 years too. And he's 30 now.

 

[rotary111]

Zach looks so much more composed. Look out league. MIP?

 

[The Professional Fan]

Weirdest shit I’ve ever seen

 

[The Professional Fan]

Sorry. I don’t ever watch other teams broadcasts it’s fucking with me

 

[hoopsjock]

Funny that @BonesJones disappears when Hezonja starts hitting shots!

Where you at Bones?

3zonja!

 

[tiredhunter]

Weirdest shit I’ve ever seen

The bear on stilts golfing was fucked up too.

 

[BonesJones]

Are we sure Hezonja is a better shooter than Turner?

Yes, the answer is yes.

 

[The Professional Fan]

Yes @BonesJones mario is a better shooter
