Portland is looking deep. Is Nurkic still with them?

Patrick Williams looks and moves like a vet already.

COVID protocols for Nurk. He's cleared but didn't practice yet.

Melo doesn't even look like the same player he was in NY. He lost weight and isn't wearing all that body armor anymore. He seems like he's become the player that D'Antoni and Phil wanted him to be. :lol:

Good for the Trailblazers and good for Melo. I watched the highlights from last night's game and the transition he's made as a players is quite, um, "phenomenal."

In Portland, he follows Dame's lead. He always played more like that when he trusted his point guard (Kidd, Billups, Olympics).

We could have used humble Melo's talent, but we got a different version of him here. His talent is unrelated to his inability to be the leader of a team. I never questioned his talent. I just didn't like the version of Melo who played in a Knick's uniform.

I'm glad he has found a way to fit in finally.

Melo owes Lillard so much for sticking his neck out and backing him. He should do whatever Dame wants AFAIK

Looking forward to seeing Lamelo and Wiseman. Especially after those Wiseman for Mitch + 8 rumors.

Unlike the Knicks, the Hornets actually have quality guards. It's not like Lamelo is playing behind the likes of Elfrid Payton

On Charlotte you can legit make the case that Lamelo should be coming off the bench behind Rozier.

There is no wayyyyyy in hell you can make the case that elfrid **** Payton should start over Lamelo.

Big Biggggg Difference!!!!!!
