I think he has been scouted, it's just that Portland is ill-equipped to handle him with their lineup and injuries.

But even if he has been scouted, guarding him to prevent the lob will open up the lane for GS. He doesn't have to get lobs to be effective.


Portland can't even handle Zaza with what they have right now. Sucks, but that's the reality. Probably why they shouldn't have pushed to make it. Should've just rested everyone, let the young guys play, and let Denver have a fun series. A better pick would've been nice right now.

I think many GS fans including myself have been wondering the same thing all year.

Um. I don't know what 'people' you're talking about. I do. That's all that matters. :D


As long as you don't care that the person you're responding to has no idea what you're attempting to communicate, I guess it's all good.


If someone can't understand what experience is, I suggest they return to grammar school.

is Nurkic coming back game 3? might just need to rest him. Lillard/Mcollum probably shoot well enough next game to make it interesting

Not sure Portland is even close to a .500 team with their active roster. Maybe 32... 33 wins max


Oh, shut up. You're so desperate for the Blazers to pick two slots higher that you'd just forego the last month-plus of excellent basketball?

We all knew the Blazers weren't going to beat Golden State. And, all the Warriors have done is win two home games. There's nothing wrong here.

It's honestly aggravating. There's really no point even playing without him. It's not that he's necessarily Shaq or anything... it's that the Blazers have nothing to put out on the floor behind him. Portlands guards are being absolutely swarmed, and they have absolutely nothing to take the pressure off. Even Crabbe looks injured out there, and to be fair he took a walking boot off like 2 days before the series started.

Yes, Clark looks like he's got his confidence back. McCaw looking good also.
McGee... he's been doing it all year, just confirms how many people don't watch regular season games. haha

Wonder why. He's never been gifted so many great defensive players before. He's got it made.

Warrior Fans after decades of losing basketball, finally make it to PO. Then we get crushed losing our bigs... We understand that sentiment..
