Okay... thats a weird response...

Your initial posts were indicating that you thought trades were imminent. But your source for this information was rubbish.

Trade rumor going on JG to Cleveland we receive Georges Niang and Chris LeVert. This would be a salary dump for us. Depending on draft picks I think we can do better than this. Cleveland wish list. Dump so Blazer brass can sell the Blazers with a clean money slate.

Some random guy writing a random trade proposal on a random website is not «a rumour»

I liked Watford; more than Jabari for sure. He wasn't much of a loss, but he was effective as an end of bench guy

Watford wasn’t awful by any stretch. I was surprised when we cut him. There was about 4 or 5 more guys on the roster that should’ve been cut first.

Watford was great here, I was totally shocked we cut him as well. He also could bring an offensive element especially for a PF that we don't have.

Jabari has been a complete waste of space.

I think this is a good idea. Right now, the 5th in the east is at 50% win rate. While 11th in the west is at 50% win rate. Although this change would disadvantage teams on the west that miss the playoffs.

The speed with which Watford was cut, along with the timing of it all (and a real lack of any commentary from the front office) always made me wonder if maybe it wasn't Trendon that was Mrs. Lillards "special friend". It seemed pretty clear that someone close to Dame (and unsuspected) was the culprit. Pure idle speculation on my part.....

A rumor this far fetched has got to be true.

And the Knicks are almost not worse than they were without him!

They aren’t playing shitty BECAUSE of him though right? Maybe his teammates need to step up and he wouldn’t have to put these kid of numbers up?
 
Not sure if I should root against the Hawks.
If they finish in the bottom 10, we get their 2nd rounder, which would be pick 31-40. Not sure we need a 2nd rounder.

However, SA gets their 1st rounder, so SA could potentially land 2 lotto picks.

ohhhh...great

and I just checked, the Atlanta pick is unprotected. Of course, the Spurs never luck out in the lottery
 
Merry Early Christmas!

I have unignored all, so you can all sling the mud, and I'll see it!!!!

peace.
 
It was only one game, actually the first time he got significant minutes, but watching 19 year old Dillingham with the T-wolves tonight; i just feel like he is going to be better than Scoot.

I have a feeling there will be about half a dozen players better than Scoot from his draft class, but that we won’t be too disappointed about it.

That’s what surrounding a PG with a ton of talent will do. Makes em look good for sure. Not as much pressure. Can you imagine Dillingham trying to create and break down defense surrounded by OUR players. There is no outside threat…..defense simply sags. That’s a recipe for turnovers huh?

Yeh, I hope that's all it was. It's a very subjective opinion, something about Dillingham's demeanor and the fact the coach put him back in for defensive purposes late in the game.
 


Makes sense why Blazers were highly considering taking him at 3.. They should have stuck with their gut

Also helps that Dillingham is a threat to hit 3’s.

Hey, again, pure idle speculation on my part. It was just where my mind went at the time. Not making accusations of any kind, but everything about Watford's departure was odd AF. We'll probably never know......
