Looks like Pau doesn't want to retire and become a big man coach for the Blazes after all. He wants to play a final season and he hopes to do so for the Lakers.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Boo!​

 

[riverman]

He's dead to me then

 

[THE HCP]

A welcome addition for sure!!

 

[julius]

Not sure why anyone is surprised. Both in his attempt to gravy train another title, but also the fact the claim he wanted to go into coaching was never followed up. Both by him actually coming here and by anyone confirming it.

 

[Minstrel]

A welcome addition for sure!!

You do know if the Lakers get anywhere close to the Finals, we'll just shut the league down again, right?

 

[riverman]

A welcome addition for sure!!

you guys needed some age on that team...even if he has one good tire left

 

[riverman]

I feel like the Blazers got Festus Ezeli'd again but on the cheap

Pomozi.ba Jusuf Nurkić

Jusuf Nurkić
Our most famous NBA player Jusuf Nurkić significantly supported the action of distributing packages carried out by the humanitarian organizations Pomozi.ba.
"Juka donated 125 tons of food to us, which greatly facilitated our mission, and that is to reach the final figure of 500 tons of food that we will distribute during this month to people in need throughout BiH. Yusuf is someone who has been in many years in recent years. he helped various humanitarian actions, and each time he was explicit that it must not be known that he is a donor ", they stated from Pomozi.ba

This time, as they point out, they managed to get approval to publish his donation, primarily with the aim of offering and others to help people in need, of whom, unfortunately, there are more and more of them every day, and especially now due to the overall situation with the coronavirus.

"We truly and sincerely thank Yusuf on behalf of all those to whom this food will mean a lot," they say from this organization.

Bogdanovic is out for the rest of the season after having wrist surgery. That's going to hurt the Jazz...assuming there is a playoffs left to be played this year.

Got to wonder if he heard the season would re-start and didn't want to risk getting the 'rona...

I think it would still be nice if somebody on the Blazers could give some tough love; no physical violence, but just calling guys out harshly once in awhile.

Some guy at ESPN ranking all teams best five ever:
G: Damian Lillard
G: Clyde Drexler
G: Brandon Roy
F: LaMarcus Aldridge
C: Bill Walton

As with any conversation about Blazers history, their starting five comes with plenty of introspective sighing and deep what-iffing. Injuries to Walton and Roy abbreviated what would've been legendary Portland careers. But at their best versions, Walton was a transcendent big man with unique skills, and Roy was a gifted scorer with a knack for the moment.

Drexler is a Hall of Famer who led Portland to its best sustained run of success in franchise history. Aldridge is one of the dominant scoring big men of his era, and Lillard will likely go down as the franchise's all-time best. The Blazers are haunted by history and a compulsion to live in the anguish of what could've been, but there is also a beauty to their all-time five. It represents who they are, and forever, what they might've been.

Honestly, it feels like a relatively obvious starting 5. It is interesting that Lamarcus played with 2 of the other 5, and won one playoff series combined. I could definitely see an argument for putting Sheed in the top 5 in place of either Roy or LA.

 

[HolyBackboard]

Lucas or Sheed at the 4 for me, please.

 

[Hoopguru]

Lucas or Sheed at the 4 for me, please.

Luke's performance the Championship year was outstanding and his stats back it up. He was one of the most feared defenders in the league for a number of years. Plus he could score when needed. He didn't take many shots, and as the Big Red head would say Luke was the glue of that team.

 

[THE HCP]

I'd switch out Walton for Sabas, and roll with that squad!!

I was thinking the same--the only change I'd probably make is 'Sheed in place of Aldridge. Especially if this squad were playing in today's game. <Walton voice>Launch all day, big fella!</Walton voice>

 

[Rastapopoulos]

You could do an all-shooting-guard version of the Best of Blazers that would be pretty awesome.

I love Sabas but the only way you can defend this is if you're talking about pre-NBA, pre-injuries Sabas.

Good point! That way, we can get Jerryd Bayless in there.

Oh wait, that's probably cheating--he belongs at point guard, if we're being totally honest.

If we're being totally honest, he should have been drafted by somebody else.
