The Portland Trail Blazers have added to their wing core this offseason, luring Ben McLemore and Tony Snell on veteran minimum contracts. The pair share a few similarities — both were first round picks in 2013, play at similar positions, and shoot the three ball.
Great, but the Blazers need more than three-point shooting to get to where Damian Lillard wants to go. So buyer beware, these two signees will not be the antidote to the Blazers’ ailments.
Quick note, the reason why this piece does not feature a photo of both Snell and McLemore on the court at the same time is because there is no available photo of the two of them on the court at the same time.
