Was Deni lowkey the cornerstone of the Blazers' defense in the Splinter era?
Nice hat Mike!
Blazers stopped humming when Clingan stopped shooting
We miss denni!!!!
I don’t wanna be that guy but holiday needs 2 play less I wanna see the full scoot arsenal second half of the season we may have a gem at PG but we need 2 see. And the minutes restriction may prevent that 😢
Love your positivity but you ignore something big we were one of the best defensive team last year got cissoko and jrue and got way worse on defense at this time of the year it’s on splitter we anticipate to be the best defense this year the main thing is that the drop defense just doesn’t work
"The forgotten sock of yesterday" is certainly a sentence of all time
Mike said our best chance to win is next year and he listed the age of older players. Do ya see the problem with this? We have a team with two timelines. Old past-their-prime players and young not-near-their-prime players.
Some coaches coach their roster, some try to get their roster to fit their system. Being a terrible shooting team with limited skilled passers then saying shoot 3s and run speaks to this. Tiago may not be ready for the big chair
Drop relies on guys not dying on screens and DHO’s. The literally ran it every time down.
And also the team not going supernova from 3 would help. We gave up way too many open 3’s.
We need to examine this offense. I think the screen/ghost screen dribble drive offense needs some counters (horns or some sort of high post entry to change the offensive fulcrum. Jrue hasn’t been particularly good lately.
Drew looking old. Trade him.
Why isn’t Clingan playing in the 4th… seemingly ever?
Portland should do a three team trade where they give the Bucks two picks back, Clevland gets The Greek freak and we get Mobley
Phoenix just waited for the law of averages to catch up witht he Blazers on 3pt shooting and we cooled off, plus the Blazers have lost their defensive identity.
Ja is the last man standing because no one wants him.
So basically, Deni was the GLUE and im not even a big fan of the guy
It’s Yang Hansen fault why they are tanking, because Joe knows he has made a mistake.
