Blazers making a run with Shae running the point… we are insanely long out there right now and we’re making some nice defensive plays on this run!

Blazers training staff either is abhorrent or we are blatantly tanking. I tend to think the latter

Welp, at least the Blazers were fast about crushing any dreams of an unexpectedly good season.

What’s the fastest a team has ever gone from a fully healthy roster to needing an injury exception?

A possibly unpopular opinion, but I think Shaedon is probably more of a natural point than Ant. Though his actual natural position, Shae's, is the two.

Positions are largely pointless by now. The Warriors kind of destroyed the game from the point. Same with Harden once everyone just decided he’s a PG for some reason.

Gone are the days of needing a prototypical player at every position as was the NBA I grew up with.

I agree. He’s honestly too unselfish at times and seems very willing to involve his teammates. He’s made some nice passes out there and can penetrate into the lane with PG level efficiency

If Billups were a creative coach, he would have started Camara in the second half…

Shae
Camara
Thybulle
Grant
Ayton

Let’s get crazy Chauns!

That’s the lineup we ran that spurred our run, until Ayton picked up his 3rd and had to sit
