[illmatic99]

this is just a cheatcode. 2 or 3 years. that's it. any teams planning to build a contender in 4-5 yrs, it will be going through this guy.

He has weaknesses. He’s shown that he tries to do too much with the ball. He’s not big enough to bang. I agree he is a phenomenal talent but he can’t do it alone.

he's 19. he doesn't have his grown man strength or maturity yet. it will come.

if he was drafted by detroit or charlotte, i wouldn't be saying what i did.

have a bit more faith in the FO in san antonio to put a contender around him.

I'd rather have Watford than Murray.

Would you rather have him than Jabari or Camara?

 

[twobullz]

Toronto signed and waived Winslow today.

 

[HansenYang]

Would you rather have him than Jabari or Camara?

Yes

 

[Natebishop3]

Yes

I disagree. Walker and Camara don’t need the ball in their hands. They are role players that fit our team. Watford is best with the ball in his hands. We don’t need that. We have Scoot and Simons and Brogdon and Sharpe.

 

[MickZagger]

I knew Zach would be fine. I thought it was a HUGE mistake when we dumped him.

I loved Collins game and was thrilled when we drafted him. He just was never healthy or on the court. Shame.

Actually gives me confidence in our front office, that they tanked so hard, knowing what the prize was. We put ourselves in as good of a position as we could and missed. Thems the breaks.

So damn close too.

tanking for wemby is 100% justified. damn spurs

 

[blazerfan11]

Would you rather have him than Jabari or Camara?

No. Watford was useless without the ball in his hands.
I still liked him though.

[blazerfan11]

Warriors TV guy pronouncing Victor's last name as Wembanyana. Disrespect? Jealousy? Doesn't know how to say his last name? Weird.

 

[blazerfan11]

What happened to Scottie Barnes shooting? 50% on 3-pointers and 63% overall in the pre-season.



His career regular-season numbers:

so many national tv commentators have made this mistake multiple times. i don't tbink it's intentional. they need to do better tho

 

[riverman]

Probably been mentioned but Justice Winslow has signed with the Raptors

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Would you rather have him than Jabari or Camara?

No, I'd put Camara above them all. Didn't make sense to cut Watford at the time and I'd undo it if I could now. He's better than our 14th/15th man. Although with the blazers rebuilding his cheap contract has less upside here so probably irrelevant either way. It's much more damning on the value we wasted with Murray than the loss of Watford.

 

[Samuel]

I can’t wait to watch Watford on another team this year that isn’t the Blazers.

 

[Samuel]

Probably been mentioned but Justice Winslow has signed with the Raptors

This made me so happy. When he was cooking last year it was awesome.

 

[BigGameDamian]

 

[twobullz]

Probably been mentioned but Justice Winslow has signed with the Raptors

sounds like he has already been waived.

 

[julius]

There's no way that anyone can convince me that the league didn't engineer Wemby to the Spurs.

You think the league wanted a unicorn on the Blazers or Charlotte (or any other teams)?

The worst part of him going there is the insane smugness of Spurs fans comes back in full effect.

 

[KingSpeed]

We’ve never seen a player like Wembanyama. He’s gonna be the GOAT.

I was a skeptic, but dude is changing my mind. Any team that wasn't an obvious playoff team last season that did NOT tank, was doing their fans a disservice. I am glad our management recognized the prize and gave it their best shot. He is a franchise changer, and we came so close.

lol no wonder he got 5 blocks

 

[Pinwheel1]

Yeah but can he do that after teams scout him and make adjustments?

 

[KingSpeed]

Not including all the shots they missed because they were afraid of getting blocked.
