Amazing what a year will bring. Last year Simons was the darling of the Trailblazers’ SL team and Trent was bricking long twos (and looking worthless). Today Simons with another DNP-CD, and Trent goes 7-11 from three.

He'd be a nice fit in this system if we could steal him away somehow

Stay at 11 or whatever and draft Cameron for Rosas Houston north. That was my beat last draft. One of these days they will just start paying me and listen. I remember a couple people saying they would be fine with Johnson. Still scrawny.

I was all about Clarke at 11 and he has been great all year long.

Sad news. My prayers to Isaac... Gordon trade is inevitable.

He should never take these midrange, fadeaway shots.

We aren't getting OG Anunoby, Toronto has him permanently locked up.

Good for Cameron Johnson, he was top ten on my Big Board.

I am devastated about the Jonathan Isaac injury. He is an unbelievably talented player, and this might completely derail his career. Legitimately upsetting to see that happen.

Player A: 34.5 mpg, 19.5 ppg, 6.8 rpg, 3.1 apg, 0.8 spg on 47% FG, 36% from 3PT. 180mil/5yr
Player B: 32.6 mpg, 19.2 ppg, 4 rpg, 1.5 apg, 1.1 spg on 53% FG, 40% from 3PT. 47mil/4yr

Player A: Tobias Harris
Player B: TJ Warren

There might be a chance that Harris is an elite defender though. However in a few games I watched, he did not impress.

This was my first thought as well. With Isaac out next season and the Magic in win now mode, no way they move Gordon now.

Warren is a scorer, Harris is more of an all around player. Better defender, playmaker and rebounder while Warren is absolutly deadly finishing at the rim. I am not the biggest Harris fan out there but he's a very good player.

yeah not saying he's a sure max player, but he's very good and better than Warren.
