108-116 Blazers win...stupidly optimistic

I'll predict a 98 - 110 scoreline, in favour of Sacramento unfortunately.

The preseason to me showed that we have a lot of gelling to do.

This has been a lot of fun so far! Sacramento is playing very sloppy, but it's been good to see Portland take advantage. Everybody's contributing, too. Good to see Ant hold his own and distribute well, and good to see Sharpe look sharp in his first game.

My future wife Becky G is doing wonders for us. I nominate her for glb of the year, why not?

Shaedon looking good so far.

Dame looking good too, particularly with his playmaking.

Yep - apologies that I jinxed us.

Nurkic has looked horrible.

Case2012 · Post #14 » by **Case2012** » Thu Oct 20, 2022 3:17 am

Joe Cronin decided paying nurkic 18 million a year was a good idea.

So many blown opportunities at the rim. The statisticians seem to count about 1 out of every 5 Nurkic turnovers.

Case2012 · Post #16 » by **Case2012** » Thu Oct 20, 2022 3:23 am

We should free up our Chicago pick and figure out a 3 team deal to get Myles Turner for Nurkic somehow. They have matching salaries but obviously Indy wouldn't want him. Actually I'm not sure anyone wants him, especially at that price. Who was going to offer Nurkic more than 10 million? Insane.

Refs are complete garbo in this game, feels like they are letting the Kings get away with whatever they want defensively in the paint.

Is Nurk the worst big man in the league that actually sees a good number of minutes at scoring near the basket? I swear it seems like he can't hit a god damn thing within 5 feet of the basket.

The defense has fallen apart since the first quarter. Let's get some more Shaedon!
