  1. Always underrated, I see this team as having home court advantage. This is a two way team with a lot of pick your poison on the floor …healthy Dame? I'm all in on this team..Cronin had a great start. This team is has the deepest bench they've had in longer than I can remember

  2. Also they have in limited roles off the Bench Trendon Watford who was the Summer League championship MVP and rookie Jabari Walker who was nice in Summer league also. Iwundu is just on the training camp roster. He is one of several guys competing for a final 2-way roster spot. Although the spot is likely to go to Olivier Sarr, because Portland is lacking a little depth at the center position with the current roster makeup. People are sleeping on this team for sure. The west is tough but think a couple of the teams could take a step backwards this year. I'm not buying the Lakers hype. They still have the Westbrook problem to solve. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Blazers finish anywhere between the 4th – 8th in the West. The key will be the defense. It's going to be better this year. They have a lot of key defensive players now so it can't not be. How much better remains to be seen. But if they can go from almost last in defense last year to being in the top half of the league, its going help them finish much better in the standings.

  3. I thank Cronin for contracting GP2. I followed him at Warriors and he can guard 1-5. Otto Porter jr. said GP2 is 6.3 but plays like he's 6.8. He is definitely the best defender in the NBA and will ignite the team and the supporters!! I'm looking for great games, led by the great coach Billups!!

  4. Lakers and Pelicans can be counted on to be injured. Try again without assuming LeBron or Zion will be there, because that's more likely than not. Might as well throw Leonard and the Clips in the presumed injury report too. Tough teams, when they're whole. Chances of that are low.
