IT 0-10 with four shots blocked. He is going to be legitimately unplayable in a series against the Warriors.

There was talk about players seldom coming back from the injury he suffered, but there's also a very good chance that it's a combination of rust/going from playing in a system built around his talents by a genius to Lue drawing up whatever.

I said it before that Poeltl is insanely athletic, he's not a leaper- doesn't have the greatest wingspan(+2), but both his parents were highly competitive volleyball players and his feet/quickness might be the best for a 7 footer in the NBA outside of Durant. He also has great rim protecting instincts, reads the ball well on the offensive glass, if he were black/played in NY or something he would get talked about way more, but articles just say he has smart feet instead of calling him athletic. His weaknesses are strength (struggles to box out top centres or defend in the post vs strong/skilled guys)shooting, and experience.

The argument against DeRozan is that it might be difficult for him to fit with other stars in a multi-star concept. How useful is DDR if he reduces his usage from 30.3% to Butler's 24.7% this season? Butler can at least channel his energy into defense.

If you were going to bring in two other stars to put around DeRozan, which players do you think would be a good fit next to him? The list is much shorter than the one for Butler. If you put DeRozan next to two other stars, he'd be the Carmelo.

If he was playing the best defense in the NBA people would just say it's become average.
He might have made the best leap forward in his game this year which is kind of amazing.

Lorenzo Brown played a bunch of minutes 7 hours ago in Mississauga( 25-60 minutes away depending on traffic) in the G league and he's playing 10 minutes in this game.

I would love for Fizdale to coach the Cavs.

IT3 Is probably done though. He's a ****ing hobbled midget.

Danny Ainge just waffle crushing it this year despite Gordon's injury. Plus he's like what 80% to land a 2-5 top pick this draft?

GM of the year iyam.
