Which two players? Will they have an impact like Oden?
How much impact are you thinking Oden will have? He hasn't gone full speed in years and when he did, he was glass. 5 million bucks in ...

LOL last season Batum wasn't getting enough minutes. Now it's too much? Lillard who hasn't had 4 seasons of NBA schedule and trainers to harden him up played how many minutes? MORE THAN BATUM. He's also more active, more consistent, more polished, gets way more respect from ...

This is a classic riverman thread. True to form man, you definitely don't lack consistency.

A homer is and always has been a perjorative. It's somebody who claims to be a fan but can't see the forest for the trees. You may enjoy the personalities, pretend the players are your friends or that you know them in any way. You don't though. The Blazer organization is ...

I don't think a team not willing to go deep into the luxury tax will ever be a champion. Simple facts, the players go where the money is. The Heat's payroll next year is estimated to be 93.3 million, and the following year with the repeater tax will be ~141 million.....They know that...

Batum is ranked 11th in terms of defense among SF's (Hoopdata defensive metric). Behind Gerald Wallace and Metta. He is NOT an elite defender. He gets a lot of highlight blocks from behind, but gets torn up routinely by elite players. He's a good defender, but by no means...

Last night changes nothing. Evans averages 3ppg....It was a career night for him. We knew that Leonard and Hickson have trouble defending. The entire team got exposed for their poor team defense, it was just a particularly bad shellacking as opposed to the typical one...

@uprised...uh, I don't get how you translated my post as because we're not Heat fans? ...I'm not emotionally attached to every player on the team but I am a fan and because they arent' winning a championship this season is no reason to...

Claver developed more in Jan and Feb than Batum has all season. He was starting to look comfortable in that rotation right up to the SA game. Anxious to have him back and hoping he picks up where he left off.

Dude's character flaws are off the charts. Not that I care about that too much, but doesn't sound like anything this Blazer organization would ever consider. I think Alex is full of it.
