    Ha! Me too. Orangedale elem and East High. If anyone remembers that.

    I kinda think this is who Durant is now. Age and injury.

    Gordon or Allen can start in his place. Not going to get too excited about this season because of the word that we dare not say.

    My guess would be that he thinks of Zinger more as a wing player.

    2023-24 Around the NBA Thread

    Had to happen. 76ers signed Oubre who literally sole Hardens girlfriend two years ago and then married her. Can't imagine those guys playing together. GM had to know that when he signed Oubre.

    Hmmm. I wish would figure out all this stuff based on the evidence before going with it to the media.

    Oh man. I remember Chambers getting the ball stolen so much. That was so frustrating.

    His contract is movable. Even if it was to pick up a second round pick or something.

    Poll: Final Two Cuts

    You can't teach 7 feet or that kind of handle and agility. Ya gotta give it an effort to see if something can be developed. That's why you keep Bol over a guard.

    The Grayson Allen thread

    Yep. I agree with you. There is also a huge difference between the Grayson Allen today at 28 years old and the player he was when he was at Duke in 2016. People watch youtube clips and think that is the same guy. I doubt anyone on the board was the same guy at 28 that he was at 20.

    Poll: Final Two Cuts

    The only reason I did not choose D Lee was that he has a guaranteed contract (I think).

    We will eventually have frustrations. Nurkic, as big as he is, plays below the rim. He gets little elevation and seems to rarely dunk the ball. At the rim he throws up an array of layups and flip shots that go in at a percentage that is below what is acceptable for a guy that big and that...

    Poll: Final Two Cuts

    Keon and Ish. Bol still has some intrigue and I think they will give that experiment just a little longer.

    I get the Portland fans frustration with Nurk, but watching him, he seems to fill a role on this team that Ayton was just unwilling to fill. Nurk sets picks, and his size makes them useful. He does roll to the hoop and he does rebound. He also has that perimeter shot that spreads the floor...

    Preseason: Suns @ Trail Blazers Thursday game thread, 10-12-2023

    Now that is totally fair. At one time, I had hoped Ayton would develop like Robert Parish--initially a disappointment but eventually developed into a solid dependable piece on a championship team. But he seems to be going the way of Joe Barry Carroll. He just doesn't seem to care that much...

    Its preseason. No one will believe anything about any player they recently added until 20 games into the season.

    AYTON TRADED!

    Oh. Ayton has game. We have seen it. There is no arguing that. He just doesn't care enough to use it.

    No need to get anything back. They could just take him.

    Preseason: Suns @ Trail Blazers Thursday game thread, 10-12-2023

    I think it is a little more than just pacing. They already know Denver, and they already know what our big three are. A team like Denver, that you just lost to in the playoffs, well, the competitive juices would start to flow. It's just natural for players who are highly competitive. No need...

    Ayton was Monty's kryptonite.

    AYTON TRADED!

    He did have some nights where he was feeling it, and the fear sort of drained away, but it always came back.

    Or get someone to take a contract in trade. Lee needs to be traded--for nothing even--if possible. That way we at least get his contract off the books.

    We tried to trade for that guy. Remember the "not Marshon, we wanted Dillon" fiasco. In his defense, he was just probably trying figure out if it was Daniel or Danielle. We live in confusing times.

    AYTON TRADED!

    So. Watching Nurkic. At least he does not seem to play like he is afraid of other NBA bigs. Ayton often seemed to play like he was afraid of another player. Not fear of physicality, more like just fear of looking bad. Kinda like he knew he wasn't as good and was hoping no one would notice.

    Yep. We have limited picks over the next few years, so developing players is the alternative. I was hoping Little would be the replacement for Camara on the roster. But I also get the fact that we might have to decide WHICH players to develop. KBD or Little for instance.
