    Casey and Stotts were both assistants on Rick Carlisle's championship winning Mavs team and both got head coaching gigs because of it. They're like twin brothers from different mothers.

    Yeah, the similarities are almost eerie. If the Blazers have been paying attention, they know what needs to happen next.
    We just need a rapper from Oregon sitting court side cheering them on

    There really are some historical parallels aren’t there? Long time gap/weakness at the 3. Hole at the 4. Remember when we would argue Patterson vs chuck hayes CD james Johnson? Man oh man.

    edit—both have Triano ties.

    Dame/CJ/Nurkic/Stotts = Lowry/DD/JV/Casey.

    The Blazers look like a team well past its best before date. The tell is the home record - Portland is always tough at home and they're 1-4 including a bad loss to the Nets. Don't think Nurkic is going to solve what ails them. Last year was their chance.

    Funny reading spurs sites about trading DeRozan "he continues to score buckets, but is not a threat from 3, and his defense is bad...the team bleeds points with every DeRozan lineup"

    colour me shocked. This team may have already been better last year just by shedding DeRozan and adding green. Hell they lost both green and Leonard and they still look better than any of those DeRozan teams so far.

    loved his service and loyalty, but its abundantly clear we were spinning our wheels, continually bumping our head into a ceiling.

    Oh they're gonna make the playoffs, they're gonna be fine once they get Dame and Nurkic back.

    The real question is, would the Nuggets even get past the 1st round this year? because from I remember, it took them 7 games to beat the Murray-less Spurs last year.

    I'd still take Melo's Blazers in a 7 game series against the Nuggets.

    Is Isaac playing? He was out for like 2-3 games.
    According to Yahoo, yes.

    Wed, Nov 20

    Barring a setback during warmups, Jonathan Isaac (ankle) will be back in action on Wednesday against the Raptors, per Magic head coach Steve Clifford.

    GOLDBLUM needs to be in charge of all game threads going forward.

    That Gasol intro could use some work though... he ain't all that.

    I also realized that if the DeRozan/Orlando trade happens, then we're not going to see DeMar play in TO this season unless of course we play the Magic in the playoffs.
    That would definitely be weird lol
