One center
Four power forwards biggest 6’9”
Four forwards
Six guards

We have 15 players under money contracts today. I think we need to keep this guy on the roster. This kid has some very possible upside and we need some center backup. Nice youtube on this kids skills.

Should we get his name right first?
 
I 110% agree this guy has excellent mobility and athleticism. It's kind of amazing he is available to be honest. This guy is already at rotation level and he has a TON of upside. Almost reminds me of Hassan Whiteside in his prime in terms of reaction time and athleticism. He also seems to have amazing instincts for passing etc. Sign him TODAY!

I was just giving you crap. I just thought it was funny given the rest of the thread title. I've fixed it anyway, so no one will even know what I was talking about (which is not unusual for me).

And I don't disagree. He should get that 2nd 2-way deal that we have open.
 
Relax on the highlight videos, please. I made Moses whats his name who played for us a couple seasons back look like a prime Ralph Sampson for a party he was having! Highlight vids are a dangerous way to base opinions on.
Having been engulfed in the college recruiting game the past 18 months, that’s the exact reason scouts ands recruiters/college coaches don’t want highlight videos, they want to see the whole game video. That way they can truly get a vibe for the player.

Highlights can show only the good moments. But in this video I was looking at his footwork and timing and ability to pass. These are skills that are a must. Individuals Motor and drive is another issue as well to be taken into consideration.
 
We don't need Sarr on the active roster we need to make a trade and get a decent backup big that moves better than Nurk on the perimeter defensively and hopefully spaces the floor with a jumper on offense. I think we need to see just how bad it is playing small ball with Trendon and continue to see how bad Eubanks is when trying to win. That should take a month or two at the most. Then I think we trade for a more athletic big, hopefully with a shot but at least someone with legit size at the 5 that can really move.

Obviously the FO could come to this decision but still wait until January when some guys can be traded that can't currently but if we're trying to be competitive we have to fix our lack of size behind Nurk and we should at the same time get someone we can play instead of Nurk when he has bad match ups as an old school big.

Your dream player is already on the roster! He dunks, he blocks, he hits the 3! Only problem, he's 7'1" and only 175 lbs. No worries, he's a Blazers Big, what could go wrong?
:)

And oddly enough, I really want the Blazers to land Baba Miller in the draft. LOL.
