Didn't you watch Watford's double double? Trendon has so much talent padding stats in garbage time, that he has recently been added to the list of "untouchable" players in future trade scenarios.

Good, because it would be idiotic to get rid of him when he only makes 1.5 million unless some other team demanded that he be included in the trade. Watford forces things at times for sure, but at his size, he has too many skills to dump him just as filler. Maybe he never makes an impact but I want to see another year of him to know for sure.

I had blissfully forgotten about the game tonight until the news of Simons return flashed on my Apple watch - mixed feelings for sure. :-)

nurk looked lighter on his feet last game (am i only one who noticed that) than he did at any point this season, he made some really good defensive plays

maybe it was fresh legs or adrenalin kicked in, but i hope we see the same tonight, more mobile nurk is better defensive player

I thought he looked really agile the last game before he got injured.
 
We are going to lose, but hopefully, Ant and Nurk can shake off the rust in preparation for Sunday's game.

I totally understand Watford is an undrafted sophomore on minimum contract. But he hasn't blocked a shot in over a month. Trendon has only 6 blocks all season. The league has generously gifted him a 0.1 bpg average. The Blazers as a team have serious defensive flaws, and squeezing offensive production from a reserve forward has not been a winning strategy.
 
18-6 Portland? Faith restored - I'm back on the bandwagon!

This is an unreasonable expectation, frankly. Watford is what he is, a young big that despite his relative lack of athletic ability is a contributor thanks to his ball-handling and BBIQ - he is never going to be a dominant block artist or anything like that. It is not his fault, nor frankly the coaching for having to play him. Great guy to have
 
Alright Shae... get in there and get this tank back on track
 
I'd say the practice yesterday was a good one..best we've played in a long time
 
Sure hope we can sustain this for the night - this is really fun basketball right now.
 
i feel like that was a pretty clear push on dame right there how did they not see that?
