NBA Awards "The Slammies" + The Blazers Future | Slam N Jam

Got his free throw attempts up over five per game. Now, the three-point shooting, obviously still an issue. But I really loved everything else we got from Franz this season as his usage skyrocketed. Did you know he was top 10 in usage this season? Over 31% usage. I think he was like at 25 last season. And that stretch he had early in the season when Paulo went out, it was incredible.

And I'm just making a bet that as their offense and spacing hopefully improves, things are going to get easier for Franz. They're going to get easier for Paulo and their ceilings are going to start being fully realized. So that is my pick.

That would be my greatest call of all time. Okay. Our next award, the time traveler from August, 2025 award. Yeah. The time traveler shows up from August, 2025. And they only have time to tell you about what happened to one team. This upcoming off season, you get to learn about what happened to the draft free agency, any trades. And this award goes to the team we would pick in that scenario.

And for me personally, It's an obvious one. It is the Houston Rockets, just because they have the most stuff going on. First, even if they don't jump up, they're likely going to have a top 10 pick in this draft. And I'm so interested to see how they handle drafting and potentially incorporating another high pick.
