agarcia34 Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Imagine saying Jason Kidd is the coach I want and actually meaning it and not laughing at the end. Dame deserves all the first round exits coming his way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYRaider Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 Dame is a sleeper cell that is trying to make the organization implode from the inside so he can force his way to the Utah Jazz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 3 minutes ago, Leader said: Why? Because the Dame-CJ backcourt has come up short year in and year out. And Dame will be 31 next season so their window to try to win with him is now. He's really the only piece they have on their roster that they could trade and receive a good player back for.

Okay...understood. I really dont watch a bunch of POR games - so the dynamics of their roster are somewhat lost on me - but - after making my comment I figured to go find an answer and have to say the results are mixed.... CJ's certainly a contributor on offense. Defense - I've no clue. But, he's second in both minutes and points behind Dame. Interestingly, his contract is up after this season. Now, they own his Bird rights and I've no idea how all the NBA rights and exceptions clauses work (and dont care to know actually.....). I dont see a "step up" SG in their stats....... I was gonna say I think they need a bonafide big man - but Nurkic has a good stat line. Wish the Lakers C's had as good. Interesting that Dame's put it out there who he wants for HC.

I think Dame and CJ are too similar, CJ is essentially just a worse version of Dame. They'd be smart to bring back Norman Powell who provides similar production to CJ and then trade CJ for a bigger wing scorer/defender. Nurkic is a good offensive player and rebounder but he's slow and gets cooked defensively. Them losing Zach Collins was a big blow because he actually looked like he was going to be really good for them. I saw a rumor about a CJ McCollum to Minnesota for KAT but I'm sure they'd have to give up some other pieces as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
