Will Barton is 6th in the NBA in WAR at 2.0.  Highest on his team by a fair margin.  Millsap a 1.7.

Fwiw, on your link, Barton is tied for 11th in WAR (with Montrezl, and just above DeVonte Graham)
Barton's defensive rating looks suspiciously high.
A number of Nugs with high Def rating -- Milsap and Plumlee tied for 8th best -- so they must be doing something right early on.

I dont think its about starters as far as trades go - its about contributors.

Even a guy like Iguodola isnt a lock to start fora team he is dealt to.

As far as NY goes - and who they get back - its about picks.  Especially afterw e have gotten so little in player value from the KP deal (should have tried harder to keep Jordan), I dont think we will be making those mistakes (taking on money for a guy who wont blossom) again any time soon.

POR has to decide if they want to make the playoffs and try crash the Top Tier this year.  5-11, just 1-4 at Home, and starting 35 year old Melo . . .


Like I said - Blazers shooting for 8th slot - and wont let go of future contributors just to get it.  Being in the lottery for one year doesnt stall the program that much.

How soon til Simons and Nassir are ready to contribute to playoff hoops?  Hell, Zach is still getting settled into being a quality starter.  How many years of Lillard and McC's prime do you waste waiting for pups to become ready?

Iggy is old.  Wouldn't need to start.
But if primed, would play 20+ and crucially D up some top guns.
DEN & UTA could really use the Ig Function.
Both of those teams can wait for Iggy and mostly deploy him later in the season and the playoffs.

I think with good health POR gives LA a tough series THIS year should they sneak in

Capable of ripping off 8-10 straight wins when right

We'll see

Lillard's current back woes are a concern

I do expect wins for Blazers the next 2 games, taking them to 7-11.  With Suns cpming back to earth and plenty of time.....

Two days rust vs Spurs on no days rest

pathetic.

Randle inbounds you the ball....
You take one, two dribbles and pass it right back?!
You do that more often than you keep the ball yourself.

How about YOU bring the effing ball over halfcourt and SET UP A PLAY.

[Merciless]

Typical...what's it gonna take to get these fuckers motivated. Just invite everyone into your house and let them shit all over your floor.

Ouch. Frank a tidy -25

[kidcarter8]

Wide open threes remains a major problem

[chipstern]

Well, that was fun.

Think Pops has exacted his revenge for the home loss in Texas? 



Marcus Might Want A MULLIGAN.

We didn't beat SA in Texas.

We played the in the opener.  Trailed all game til late 3rd.  Seized the lead. Then Frank fumbled it away to end the 3rd and start the 4th and the game was lost.

Jakob Peltl?

The future #1 conveyed to Toronto by Knicks GM Glen "White, But NotTooBright" Grunwald in his successful scheme to help the Raptors divest of themselves Andrea Bargnini from their roster. 

Grunwald?



Might just have well been Tootsie Giuliani?
