Good rotation/depth chart, BB.

BlazersBroncos wrote:PG — Damian Lillard / Anfernee Simons
SG — CJ McCollum / Rodney Hood / Gary Trent Jr
SF — Kent Bazemore / Rodney Hood / Mario Herzonja / Nassir Little
PF — Zach Collins / Jake Layman / Anthony Tolliver
C — Hassan Whiteside / Skal Labassiere / Vet Min Big

IR - Jusuf Nurkic
2-Way - Jaylen Hoard


Hezonja has gotten some run as a point-forward (the ET role).
Bazemore vs. Hood: Who wins? Who is the best fit as a starter and/or playing off the bench with others? Alternate? Match-ups?

Kinda telling that Minny let Tolliver go and signed Vonleh...at 23 he's easily the better player, with upside.

Tolliver is over the hill and won't be able to guard a chair. Probably about all he'll be good for is as a throw in 3pt specialist when the Blazers need an all 3pt shooting team with a couple seconds left to win a game.

Vonleh can play both PF and C. If Whiteside has to miss some games because of injury in the beginning part of the season, who plays C? Who plays PF if Zach goes down?

Tells me Wolves don't plan on winning this season.
