Portland finally has a healthy Harkless
Not a difference maker this year. Likely losing his minutes and spot to some combination of the newly acquired Hood and blossoming Layman.

And for most of this season, their main contributors have all remained healthy, which hasn't been the case with the Pels.
Have the Pelicans ever cleaned house with their trainers and doctors? They seem incompetent after guys like EG and Ryno leave to immediately have healthy seasons while the Pelicans can never keep their top three intact for most of the season
To the OP this Portland team on paper is better than last year. Time will tell if that's actually the case for real though. Also Dame did more than just navigate through Laker rumors. The dude constantly says he wants to be the best blazers player ever, win a title there, and retire in Portland. He has an attitude of I will play the games while management does roster management.

Unlike a usually half full SKC

I agree 100%. I mean, without Dame going God Mode in the last few minutes of multiple down to the wire games last year (Suns and Nuggets in the last ten games pop out to me) we don’t make the playoffs, period. There was no outside shooting outside of Dame and CJ (and technically Aminu but the defense leaves him open). This year’s team, with the emergence of Layman, signing of Curry, acquisition of Hood, we have legit outside threats outside. Insert Kanter and we have another post threat for the 20 minutes Nurkic is off the floor.

Also when asked on Twitter if he’d be happy if LA traded for him, he said he’s “typically a happy camper”. Dame did also say all the other stuff you mentioned, but if you remember the summer before Aldridge left, he said he wanted to be the best Blazer etc etc. Now Dame has always expressed how much he loves Portland unlike Aldridge who always felt like he wanted to head back to Texas.
