Once guys get paid in Portland, the fans become much more critical.

Ant has skills, but has yet to put together a solid stretch in meaningful games, so hopefully nobody thinks he'll be our 2nd best player this year.
 
I want to see a “jumbo” lineup

Dame
Hart
Walker
Grant
Nurk

or something like that
 
Only 7 points off the bench and if you don't see Dame playing 38 minutes a game that's has improved. I don't know many wins you can get without scoring on the bench.
 
Personally i think I look younger than Danny Ainge, but I might be biased.......

Which is fair. People judge the performance vs pay. Once Meyers got $10M and he was still a dumbass things changed. I’m ok with Justise Winslow. Because he makes $8m. If Justise got $20m I’d want him gone.

I'm not sure how to quantify how fair it is. If people think a player writing their name on a piece of paper will significantly change their abilities or mindset are setting themselves up for disappointment.

Personally, I expect Ant to be on off-season better than he was last year, not 5 times better as his contract would suggest.
 
Nurk has one rebound? did I read that right? Dame has 4 of them
 
Blazers really don’t look very good. Glad it’s pre season.
 
i know it's early, but i think vegas nailed it with their over/under for us around .500.
 
Why is this completely rebuilding utah team hanging with us? With mainly our main guys playing?

winslow makes 4 mil
 
Grant has easily been the most impressive this early preseason. It’s not even close

I don’t get how you could not love Winslow. The man has high basketball IQ and just plays the game right.

could be a viable option in the reg. season, but teams are gonna sag completely off him and clog the lne when the scouting reports lock in. did you catch how the clips played him last night?
 
Nurk's been playing with 5 fouls the whole second half...he can't do much or he'll foul out
 
it's shocking how bad of a rebounder grant is given all his other skills
 
Didn’t preseason used to be unlimited fouls? I didn’t think you could foul out.
 
Call me an oversensitive soccer-mom homer fan, but ESPN saying that the decimated tanking Jazz have a 58+% chance to win a game in Portland that is tied midway through the 3rd quarter is just a tad offensive (preseason or not). Screenshot_20221004_204622.jpg
