Big Man Foul Trouble Could Put a Kink in Trail Blazers Defense

On paper, Portland is deeper at center this year than they’ve been in years. Foul trouble could render the point moot.

Hopes are rising as the 2019-20 NBA regular season approaches for the Portland Trail Blazers. Fresh off a Western Conference Finals appearance, armed with new veterans, the Blazers hope to sail smoothly into another deep run. Nothing in the NBA is guaranteed, though, so this week we’re looking at nine questions the Blazers will have to answer if they’re going to be successful in the coming campaign. (CONTINUED)

Na I think it is better just to dis somebody who posted something that maybe some of have not read. I come here to get a lot of my news because there is a lot of informative people on this site. I use the internet to do frivolous things like look up current FAA regulations pertaining to my job. Current Service Bulletins and Airworthiness Directives pertaining to aircraft I work on. New techniques to composite and sheet metal fabrication. Maybe I should just quit my job deliver pizzas and start a podcast talking about stuff that other people can just google.

All NBA centers that are worth a dam in their jobs are foul prone it is the nature of their position. Until they reach elite status that is the way it is. Zach has to learn to keep the stupid ones from happening. Whiteside is aggressive and is not the media darling like Jockitch who has to actually club people over the head with a baseball bat to foul out and even then the refs will wait until the last few minutes of the game to do it.

I do know that one knock on Zach over the years has his foul-proneness. I'm hopeful that having Whiteside in the vicinity might help curtail that some. Perhaps, do a little funneling.

It's been the case forever and a day.

We've got more than enough fouls at that position to go around anyways, not sure its going to be a huge issue.

You didnt say this on a podcast so it doesnt count.
