You're underestimating how well constructed Minnesota's defense is in regard to the Packers. For every weapon Green Bay has, Minnesota has the guy or group of guys needed to slow them down. Jordy is great but Xavier Rhodes has the size and technique necessary to at least keep Jordy from going...
Their offense will be better but so will Zimmer's defense. You also factor in that Minnesota added some road graters to the offensive line and you better believe they'll shorten games with long, meticulous drives. Green Bay also cast aside James Jones once again despite Rodgers' chemistry with...
I think they will be vastly improved, but are they better than either Minnesota or Green Bay? Lolno on Minnesota, but they could catch Green Bay.
It all comes down to Langford's health. He goes down, they go down.
Pretty easy decision for Portland to make. The Blazers are one of those teams who seemingly never fail to make adjustments and maximize each player. Stotts and his staff should be there for a long time.
The teams that win in today's league continue to move the ball despite the situation. Iso is OK in a tie game at the end of the half or quarter but if you're up or down run your damn offense and get a decent shot.
Absolutely not. They need to build their bench with one or two better backup bigs. If healthy they are very dangerous. Build the bench and rest starters more.
It could be argued that Towns had a better rookie year because he came in with a more NBA ready physique. Remember, AD shot up to 7' very quickly and came into the league without time to really add any bulk to his frame.
