@WorldWideWob They need to make some tough calls about players the staff and fans are sentimentally attached to. Clingan and Camara are two of them. Murray’s gotta go. They need to install a proper offence. I’d consider trading high on Deni to land a more consistent star who can do more.

@SuitWilliams Homicide. There are people who were cooler temporarily but every one of them had a profoundly uncool phase.

I have an interesting question that I'll sit on the table for everybody: Who is the coolest act in wrestling history? Hogan was 80s cool. There's Scott Hall and 2 Cold Scorpio for the 90s. There's a strong argument for LAX. Gimme some names.

@Brady12Clark Entire rotation needs tearing up this summer and every single player has to audition for their job. No exceptions.

Far Cry being good or bad will have nothing to do with how faithful it is to the games. Noah Hawley is making it, so it’ll either be one of the best shows on TV or… the other thing.

@Brady12Clark Each one has to be be the worst scorer on the floor to be a viable starter. So we can’t start both. Clingan was promoted prematurely in my opinion. He’s more of a bench hustle/energy guy at this stage. Adding much more cutting to the offence would change Camara’s life.

@Brady12Clark Absolutely have to sell high on Deni to land a more consistent star. If you ignore the flashy lobs he’s a pretty clumsy passer and misses a lot of free throws for someone who takes so many. Baffled by him taking most of our technical shots. + Defensive rebounding has been AWFUL.

Portland was up by 15 with less than 5 minutes to go in the 3Q and then got outscored by 27 to end the game. Deni is the biggest reason they lost. That was a pretty pathetic performance tonight. Grant, Clingan, and Camara have been horrible all series.

@shanebishop @Brady12Clark Large reason why people thought Scoot was bad for a long time. He’s a pass-first point guard and we don’t even run plays so he had to force the issue, which he’s now gotten better at out of necessity. We need WAY more cutting to unlock our many athletes with shaky jumpshots.

@Brady12Clark Does anyone ever notice the Blazers don't really run any kind of offense? All isolations. Ridiculous at the NBA level

@Reasonable68 @JoshEberley Billups wasn’t even the clear-cut best on that team, and they had a top 5 defence of all time and a pretty deep bench. Isaiah also had a top 5 defence ever and a VERY deep team. Steph is Steph. He broke basketball. And the warriors were often top 5 on both ends or close to it.

@JoshEberley Can be the best in the way Chauncey Billups was the best or maybe even where Durant was on GSW, but not in the more common structure where one guy is head and shoulders the best player

@BillyReinhardt Tough calls need to be made at some point about a handful of guys who are sentimental favourites but have big awkward flaws. Camara, Clingan, Sharpe, Jerami and Thybulle. And Murray and Hansen just need to go ASAP

@Addy0302 @HughGriffin2 Bateman has made a career of being the straight man and only reasonable adult in the room. But I think it never works better than in AD because it’s clear he’s actually an asshole who tells himself he’s the nice one because of how extreme the others are. Very “I’m the eldest boy”

@the_Bradster007 There are basically two templates for almost every Marvel character: The Thing: ‘These powers are sometimes cool, but also a horrible curse I am trapped by.’ Spider-Man: ‘While these powers are definitely cool, they don’t protect me from everyday problems.’

Why do you think Spider-Man resonates so deeply with people and is arguably the most popular superhero of all time?

@Brady12Clark I’ll go a step further: I don’t think he makes any sense next to Dame. He’s not a good enough shooter to play offball and nobody in their right mind would say he should run the offence while Dame just shoots. I’d package up him, Shaedon and the Bucks picks and go star-hunting.

Deni Avdija’s FTr is higher than his eFG%, and you have Blazers fans that tell you he can be the best player on a championship team. No, you only think that because he’s the best player we’ve had since Dame left. Your reality of what a number 1 option looks like is distorted.

@PranavSriraman People think MVP means best player in the league. It does not. It never has. Otherwise the likes of Jordan etc. would have like 10 each. Honestly, this is the cause of the majority of arguments about MVP.

I think the worst part about this is the assertion that Steve Nash was some peasant who won MVP for no reason and not a revolutionary offensive engine.
NBA Courtside@NBA__Courtside

Nick Wright says Luka Doncic is better than SGA and SGA could fall into the Steve Nash category if he wins back to back MVPs: “It’s just what I believe, I think Luka is better than Shai. Shai’s won a MVP, a title, Luka has done neither, I get it. They played once in the playoffs, Luka won. If you put Luka in SGA spot, Thunder are the favorites still. I think he (SGA) might be in the category although better than this player, but Steve Nash who won back to back MVPs but is not universally regarded as the best player in the league” (Via @WhatsWrightShow)

@BlazersLead Everyone arguing with you is stuck in an earlier point in the season when it worked more often. Defenders look for it now and a lot of those lobs have become turnovers. It’s a great option to keep defences honest, but he spams it. Sometimes a dump down/drop-off would be better.

Deni is too often trying to pass to Rob and Clingan for the lob when they’re rolling He really needs to learn the 6 foot floater and look to score on more of those opportunities, it’ll not only help the offense and his scoring but decrease his turnovers too

Look… it appears he actually did go, but Asher Roth’s magnum opus, ‘I Love College’ sure does sound like it was written by someone who only experienced college through movies.
