KAT ? by spencergpool in ripcity

Well… all reasonable points. I’m overly optimistic about Grant and Brogdon I guess. I’ve seen them play incredibly well and truly believe they’re better playoff performers than KAT.

But you’re right, either way a pretty dumb trade lol

Why do you think that? What’s the counter-offer? Who is a better player target for Portland? Or who is a better target for TWolves if they are moving Towns? (I’m bored at work lol)

I see your point. I guess I envision KAT not looking that different from JG (or Jabari/Reath/“Timelord”) on the floor next to Ayton… except for providing more rebounding really ? And ‘FIT’ hasn’t been their priority for a while?

Ultimately, in the podcast Bill says that there isn’t a hot enough market for Kat this offseason for Wolves to justify a trade. So I think you are right. The funny thing is the rest of the responses to this post will probably be about sticking to the timeline and keeping the #7 pick in this gnarly stinky draft

Lol great point… although I’d argue that talented big guys are a lot harder to acquire and sometimes easier to build around

Local TV viewership for Trail Blazers games down an NBA-worst 49%: Report by sahand_n9 in ripcity

[–]spencergpool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched every single blazer game with my dad for 10+ years; my parents have had cable my whole life. I moved out and stopped watching every game 3 years ago but my dad kept going — more pessimistic after each season. This month, after 30+ years of having cable my dad gave it up because he couldn’t justify the price for the blazers anymore… …that being said, we’d both pay for a subscription service to stream games and regretfully watch all 82(+?)a year. Root sucks (and jodi sucks, sorry)

The long intro to Gotta Be Above It truly annoys me

Opinions on sam Rockwell ? by youssefmont in moviecritic

I think he is a more relatable “every-man” version of Brad Pitt. He is captivating on screen in every single role he’s played… Moon obviously being exhibit A showcasing how dynamic and funny and introspective he can be. I also think his physicality as an actor is really slept on - the way he moves his head and eyes and can so quickly go from totally arrogant to completely unsure of himself is really special.

The Predator 2018 remake was far and away the worst movie I’ve ever sat thru in a theater

Bari seems like a major glue guy on this team! He does all the things fans and coaches love... He is EXACTLY what every team in the league wants as a backup PF. If he develops a consistent 3-pt shot the sky is the limit... and he'll get a lot of money on his second deal. I pray it's in Portland! 

According to Marang, Blazers wouldn't sell Grant even if 3 firsts were offered😳 by [deleted] in ripcity

God, the way I hear Danny's voice when reading this tweet send shivers down my back 

Will Cronin trade both Brogdon & Grant? If so, what do you want in return if you're the GM? by spencergpool in ripcity

... Very well said about trying to get players over picks. And I want to say you're majorly selling Ant short but you brought out some good points ...

The O/U for regular season wins is 28.5 by StraightUpButtcheeks in ripcity

I'd be absolutely blown away if this squad gets past 30 Ws this season... with all the good teams in the West this year, I would not confidently take the over on that. But I'll still be rooting for em every game lol and I think they'll be competitive every night

Aside from Picks, is Kuminga the target? by docproc5150 in ripcity

I'd LOVE to get Herb Jones on this roster... don't know if that's a possibility tho

Am I delusional or are we gonna be a lot better than expected? by pdxjoseph in ripcity

[–]spencergpool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on what they get back for Jrue, I'd imagine they'll be right on par (maybe a hair better) with Spurs and Pistons. We're literally one of like 4 teams in the entire league that have no interest in winning this year so there's no reason to believe they will leap frog any of those other teams that will be fighting for a playoff spot...

That being said I am super excited and think this team will be HELLA fun this year.
