Join hosts Danny Marang and Brandon Sprague as they dive into the last 2 games for the Portland Trail Blazers against the Phoenix Suns and the Los Angeles Lakers that saw the Blazers step in and close out both teams in exciting fashion.
After that - it’s a Mail Bag edition where the fellas answer as many of your questions as possible!
The Anfernee Simons Block:
Should there be a concern about Anfernee Simons’ slow start or is this similar to Damian Lillard or CJ McCollum having a slow start the the season? If not, is there a game marker when it could/should become a problem?
We’re y’all surprised when Chauncey subbed Ant back into the game for Justise late in the 4th qtr? I was. All’s well that ends well or should we still be concerned with these rotations?
The Shaedon Sharpe Block:
Is/Should Shaedon Sharpe be looked at as the Blazers 6th man? I know it’s super early, but with what we’ve seen from Sharpe so far, what do the Blazers have here? Do they legit have a dude who you could see becoming an all-star within the next few seasons? Nassir and Shaedon seem like a tandem that should share 100% of their minutes on court together. Ummm.. analysis?
The You Can’t Trade Josh Hart Block:
This is way too early, but: can they even afford to trade Josh Hart? He simultaneously seems like their best trade chip but also the emotional/grit heart of the team. What’s the move this year, apart from obvious roster balance issues?
The Odds & Ends Block:
With the Blazers having another game with high turnovers, how do they fix the issue?
What do think is the biggest improvement made by Chauncey from his 1st year into his 2nd year?
Is this start for real?! I mean, how far into this season do we need to go before we recalibrate what we think this team is capable of?
