Serious question: is there an incoming player you're excited about?

[Rastapopoulos]

I mean, I don't even fucking know who we've acquired in the last week. I guess if we've acquired Josh Hart I kinda like him. Anyone actually enthused about a player we're actually getting? Sell me on him.

Anooother thread????


Im barely keeping up rasta. I think youd be better hanging in the meltdown thread….
Just sayin.

 

[perkinsfor3]

Hart. I like his fit. Hes a good fit on almost any team.

I will never understand the thread police.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Me too. But if you were ranking CJ, RoCo, Nance, Norm and him, wouldn't he be at the bottom?

 

[Scalma]

Serious question does every thought need a new thread?

[MickZagger]

Alexander-Walker is young. Has had some big games. Has length. I think he might become a very solid player.

Hart I like. Good role player. But I liked Powell better.

 

[oldmangrouch]

Will any of the 7 guys we acquired be on the next good Blazer team?

Nuff said.

 

[Ed O]

There's not a single player that I am excited about that we've acquired. They could all be cut or traded later today and I don't think the team would be much worse off. Maybe Hart has some on-court value but I wouldn't say I'm excited he's a Blazer.

Oh look - you found the question interesting enough to answer.

Now imagine how Dame feels...

 

[Wade Garrett]

Too busy celebrating RoCo, NP and CJ's departure to much care about who's coming back!
We'll figure that out in July.

 

[maxiep]

I don't know his name, but I'm excited about a player with the initials TPE. Of course, I spent years waiting for RLEC to pan out.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Hart and the pick. Not sure what I like more.

 

[perkinsfor3]

Me too. But if you were ranking CJ, RoCo, Nance, Norm and him, wouldn't he be at the bottom?

I have Hart below CJ and Norm talent wise and as a player, and above Nance and Cov. I rank him over CJ and Norm ahen it comes to fit next to Dame, tbh.

 

[wizenheimer]

ranking for what? if it's for efficiency, fit, and 2-way ability he's right near the top

 

[Rastapopoulos]

If we end up acquiring Jerami Grant... Josh Hart will still be my favorite incoming player.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Grant, probably

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Me too. But if you were ranking CJ, RoCo, Nance, Norm and him, wouldn't he be at the bottom?

No, he would be ahead of CJ. and Nance just because of injury history. maybe about the same as Norm and Roco. But he's not good enough for me to be excited.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Only the possible lottery pick excites me.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Grant, probably

I'm puzzled; what excites you about him?

 

[Orion Bailey]

I will never understand the thread police.

was just a suggestion but it makes it hard to dig to find relevant threads vs meltdown threads.

and os the flipside is, ill never understand those that cant just complain about something in the relevant thread and then move on…

 

[Duckhook]

Oh look - you found the question idiotic enough to answer.

Fixed it for you

 

[Ed O]

Now imagine how Dame feels...

Not to be a jerk, but... I don't care.

He is an awesome player but he's not good enough to get a team with pretty good role players around him into the second round. I don't think he's going to be an active part of a good Blazers team again.

So we're agreed we should trade him?

 

[tlongII]

I'm excited by our 1st round picks. Should make for an entertaining Summer League team! Vegas Baby!

Is he more similar to Brandon Roy than Clyde/Walton/Rasheed?

 

[PCmor7]

Josh Hart seems to be a guy with a good sense of humor. That will come in handy until we trade him.

Yep. I haven't been that active here (in a while) but the last year or so I think most of the time I've come in and said we should trade Dame before he gets too old rather than being mired in mediocrity.
