Our biggest position of need is PF

Ideal PF
Role player who rebounds, can spread the floor, sets good screens for pick and pops, decent passer plays good defense, blocks some shots and has some atttitude. Looking at Pf’s there isn’t a ton of options. I know people hate this idea but Zach Collins fits nicely with this roster.

The reason Zach has played better than he ever did in Portland is because Pop plays him exclusively at center.
 
Zach has become a good secondary playmaker on the PnR. 18% assist rate and 4.5 assists per 36 in the last two years. Would have been nice to have that with Dame the last few years.

His team gets roasted on the defensive boards when he plays center though.

Any legitimate sources?
Or just someone making up ideas?

Just an article on my sports feed today...said "in talks" so that's all I got from it. Could be somebody's agent fueling the rumor mill for all I know. Portland media says Grant's not on the table but....shit changes quickly in this league.

Zach is better than Jabari right now, specifically at center. At PF, yeah the improvement is minimal.

are you sure?

looks pretty close. Zach is longer but that doesn't give him any advantage of the boards; Jabari is quite a bit better. Zach is a better passer for sure, or at least he's more practiced, but that's about the only distinct advantage he has. Zach is 5 years older with 5 more years of experience. Of course, a lot of that experience has come when he's been in street clothes because of injury
