It’s crazy we traded Dame and didn’t get a young future all star like OKC did with PG and SGA. We’re not gonna count Ayton…

On the plus side that Golden State pick we received from Boston as part of the Jrue trade is starting to look good. Right now it would be the tenth pick. It is top 4 protected and becomes a top one protected if it doesn't convey this season.

If Camara was a decent shooter I would say we have our starter at SF. He reminds me of Jerome Kersey in a lot of ways.

Yeah, this team is easily competing for a bottom 3 record in the West. They are being outclassed by quite a bit against most teams.

I must say as good as the box score numbers look for Chet he is a surprising liability on defense.

Looking at our schedule honestly feels like we could easily top our franchise record worst 13 game losing streak. This game will make it 7

Maybe even the worst In the west depending on how much the returning players help us

Blazers have their starter at SF. His name is Jerami Grant. What they need is an actual PF.

That presumes Portland doesn't trade Grant at some point

It'll be interesting to see how much the returning injured players help the Blazers but its
going to be a struggle to get through the remaining 69 games left in the season.

About the only thing to hope for is the GSW struggling and somehow hoping that pick is
a decent pick. Adding a Ron Holland and one of the numerous big bodied players might
mean a lot in the rebuild

Yeah I'm curious what the returning players will bring. I kinda thing when we've dug a deep enough hole we will just stay there this year but with anf and scoot back eventually we may actually win some games here and there

This Blazer team battles but lacks talent and structure. Hard to watch.

It's almost like PG was traded when he was 29 compared to 33, George quietly made his request rather than a contentious public one, and the Clippers being able to sign Kawhi was contingent on them being able to trade for George so they were willing to give up everything.

Situations aren't comparable at all.
