By diehard Go To PostAll the crap about "respecting the game" is pure garbage, but i still am going to hate it when Harden dances like an idiot after hitting an ISO shot with 9 minutes left in the game, and i'm still going to be a sucker for humility and even fake humility.
Yeah, showing a bit of personality is great, but there's a line where it just crosses over into arrogance. A lot of people like it when it's on their side, but sometimes it can be hard to root for.

By diehard Go To PostWill listen soon. Hopefully DY explains why he doesn't like the way the Jazz lose.yal just stop scoring at the weirdest times. like shit - where would that team be without joe johnson?
what a horrible question to ask in 2017
also, wish we had spent more time on 'wide open looks'
because point guard setting you open vs natural motion of the offense-open vs finding your own open looks are all very, very different imo

I'd definitely like to hear more of that sort of thing. I think the game looks really different to you compared to when I watch it.
Also, Patrick Patterson is a fine, upstanding gentleman who would be a success wherever he goes except Sacramento.
By DY_nasty Go To Postalso, wish we had spent more time on 'wide open looks'That would be interesting. I would probably have quite a few questions to bounce off you in regards to it.

By DY_nasty Go To Postyal just stop scoring at the weirdest times. like shit - where would that team be without joe johnson?A better question is where would we be if we were healthy all year? I'm pretty sure being one of the best clutch teams in the league is not all Joe Johnson.

Also i think the Clippers would definitely give up JJ for Melo, he will be a RFA next year.

I dunno man, that backcourt duo makes that team run, they're really effective together. In isolation Melo may be a better player, but in team context I'd bet Redick contributes more.

By DY_nasty Go To PostUtah is never healthyTrue, but 20-4 with at least Hayward and Hill is something.
By DY_nasty Go To PostUtah is never healthy😢
By The Frankman Go To PostYou need to bring in fan guests to talk in-depth about some of these teams, get the fan opinion.You want to hop on?
Comparing CJ to KCP and Fournier is fucking insulting lol
Hood and Burks for Damian? FOH. They traaaaaash.
Hood and Burks for Damian? FOH. They traaaaaash.
I didn't agree with the Fournier comparsion but I what I gathered from it was: CJ is a one way player who gives you X amount of points per night and that's it.. Of course he may explode for x2 that normal amount but he doesn't do much else on the stat sheet.
I am just flabbergasted how a good haul for Damian is Hood and Burks. For argument's sake, even if it was, what problems does that solve for Portland? Like, their issues are at the SF/PF position. And I think Moe is completely underrated. Is he a starting quality SF? Probably not, but for a 4yr/40mil contract he's a damn good SF. Plays within the system and within himself, plays good defense and puts up efficient numbers.
I think Dy really doesn't rate Dame.. lol I like Dame but not as much as Portland fans do.
I do think you need to dangle one of them out there for the future of the franchise and I do agree that Dame has the highest trade value right now but CJ plays the more sought after position.

Dame's gotten better every single year and I think people really underappreciate what the dude does for the squad night and night out. You guys are talking about him like he's Reggie Jackson's bum-ass. Dame's having his best year yet -- 26PPG, 44.2FG% -- but people wanna make false dichotomies and say that LaMarcus was the only reason he was ever any good and yet look where we are.
FYI, Maurice Harkless is younger than Rodney Hood and I'm not sure the latter is better.

I always have said Portland needs a big. I think CJ is the one who should be traded to be honest.. Because I really think he and Dame are a bad pairing and I like Dame at his position more than CJ at his. But I think if they move someone they have to get a talented big..
By blackace Go To Post23-30
Walked right into that one.
And Hood and Burks make that record better or nah? If you think they do, I got some snake oil for sale.
I'd rather try and fix the glaring holes with the bigs first. This is roughly a .500 team as currently constructed and I think some savvy swaps for a proper PF might do wonders.
And Moe ain't trash, he's a solid contributor on a decent contract. Gives you double-digit efficient scoring, rebounds and plays solid defense. If Portland were to move a wing, they'd be better off trying to get something for Crabbe. I think Cleveland would consider themselves a winner in a JR/Moe swap, for example.
And they can dump Meyers into a trash compactor any day now.

I mean only the Nets wanted Crabbe at that price tho. I honestly have not been overly impressed with the front office to think they can fix their holes with savvy swaps.. I think they have a much better chance of getting it done with a hr trade.
And Moe is really not that good... Yeah he scores 10 points in 30mins but he grabs less than 5 boards and doesn't do much else for the team. He is the Edie Curry of SFs..
I don't think Cle would return your calls for JR for Moe..

wiz literally got better after that episode where kibner said we were boring to watch
Beal is playing better but I still think they are frauds. Dy's pick is looking a lot better now but them Celtics are playing good ball now..
Eh? Maurice is 9th at his position in RPG. And the list ahead of him is the likes of Durant, Lebron, Tony Allen, Butler, etc. Only Tony Allen plays less minutes per game at 28MPG to Moe's 29MPG. There's literally only 12 players total at his position that average more than 4 rebounds, period. You're off on that one lol. He's also a solid defender, so I think you're undervaluing his skill at that.
Eddie Curry of SFs, lol, man, you need to watch some more games if you think that's the case.

Here's a list of qualified players at Moe's position that average more than 4RPG playing between 25 to 30MPG:
And by TRB% without the >= 4RPG qualifier:
That's a career high for Tony Allen, btw.

Eh? I have a list of players who play SF and all rebound at a higher clip.. Some play PF from time to time but most Fs do these days. Mo rebounded much better before he thought he was an offesnive player.. Dude still getting out rebounded by Parker, Chandler, and Ilyasova.. but if you think he is the future that's cool..
Admitedly I have only watch 8 or 9 portland games this year so maybe the games where he is super solid are the other ones.

By reilo Go To PostHere's a list of qualified players at Moe's position that average more than 4RPG playing between 25 to 30MPG:Luol Deng is out rebounding him with no legs at 5.5 and 27 mins a game

All of those SF play more minutes, mate. That's the entire qualified list of players that average more than 4RPG playing between 25-30MPG at the G-F position.
Jabari, Chandler, and Ilyasova are PFs. Moe is a G-F with the likes of Hayward and doesn't play the same position.
And I never claimed he was the future (where'd I say that?), but I was just perplexed by this idea that he's trash. He's easily in that Sefolosha/Ariza realm. Imam Shumpert, now that's a trash player at his position.

By blackace Go To PostLuol Deng is out rebounding him with no legs at 5.5 and 27 mins a gameLuol's been playing PF for the Lakers. It's why he doesn't show in that search.
Moe is doesn't have the D to be compared to Shump Ariza or Allen... Nor great range... Nor the handle of some those G-F tweeners... So he doesn't do anything super well so it's easy to see him as not that valuable. Put that together with Crabbe and Turner and his value is even less hence trash...
Moe's handle is better than Shump's/Allen's by far. He's not as good of a defender as Allen but he's in that Ariza range.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Postwiz literally got better after that episode where kibner said we were boring to watchBoring doesn't mean bad!
Shump just makes bad choices with the ball his handle is pretty good... I never really seen that from Moe
Did I say Hood and Burks? If I did I meant to imply Favors in that.
Fournier can ball, he's just in that Orlando fukkery - and KCP? Its not in his offensive production, so much as it is his defensive impact. KCP is in the Avery Bradley realm.

The Jazz are the menace of the league right now. No threat to chip, but capable of beating the ever living daylights out of anyone on any night.

Pretty much, but not being even a threat to chip means they have moves to make.. They really need a big time guard..
so we can have a PG that is worse for the team than Hill? I would at least wait to see how the offseason goes and maybe trade for him then.
By diehard Go To Postso we can have a PG that is worse for the team than Hill? I would at least wait to see how the offseason goes and maybe trade for him then.Hill at SG for sometimes would be aiight to me because Burks is well Burks
