bweb blapho Posted October 23, 2018 Share Posted October 23, 2018 Collins out for several more weeks and will not return before the second week of November. He will miss at least 9 more games.

Guest Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 This is one time you're like let him stay out guys we're competing for top picks here if you know what I mean in NBA Draft 2019. No real need to rush him back. So it does suck, but hey if it means potential 2 Top 10 or Top 5 picks(That would be insane) then so be it.

bweb blapho Posted October 25, 2018 Author Share Posted October 25, 2018 But, he sure did look good last night in that pink jacket. Collins just has superstar written all over him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavs pick is top 5 protected, can only have 1 top 5 pick...so ya it would be extremely insane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe top 10 though. Luka, Matthews, Jordan and Smith will win some games. When Collins comes back we might start beasting: Trae - rook that will make mistakes but a floor leader with vision who can score Baze - looking like he could step up to his contract level this year. Finally Prince - potential pro bowler in 2019 if he stays healthy. Can score and defend Collins - gonna be a problem for many NBA teams when he gets back in shape Len - not mad at him at all. A Big that can rebound and block shots. 25 yrs old Lin - can't shoot but can penetrate. Getting old. Need to upgrade him Huerter - didn't know he had a handle. Aggressive. Like what I've seen so far Bembry - been on his bandwagon. Think he will break out this year. Point forward Spellman - good size. Decent shot. Can rebound and play some defense Dedmon - decent rebounder and defender. Hitting threes thanks to Bud Adams - showed signs in the summer league. Possible replacement for Lin Dorsey - surprised he hasn't gotten minutes. I felt like he was improving Carter - locker room leader. Probably got a few threes left in him. Last year Poythress - looks like he can score but defense seems to be very suspect Plumlee - only if we need to hack a shaq. Need to move that contract now I won't be surprised if we make the playoffs this year as a seven or eight seed. I believe we can put up the points. Just need to gel on defense. Definitely don't want to tank like many here. Never tank folks! We have plenty picks and cap dollars in the hopper. We should be able to find at least one play maker in the draft and bring in a top 10 free agent in 2019. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
