The best pickup of a playoff bound team.

[Sportal]

Who do you think is going to have the most impact/is the best pickup on a playoff bound team that was signed this season? But are not their franchise players.

I think that Barbosa might have a good playoffs as well as J.R. Smith.

rasheed wallace in 2004 was a great one

[J Shuttlesworth]

This year? Mozgov, hands down

If Portland manages to make any racket in the playoffs I fully expect AA to have a hand in their success...

I love having Aaron Afflalo. A guy that actually creates his own shots, actually plays great defense, and make clutch 3's. A lot of people overrate Matthews in the clutch. He almost cost Portland the series last year with his selfish players in crunch time. He had critical turnovers as well as bricking a lot of 3's in crunch time.

I think he should start over Wesley Matthews next year.

Aw man, I KNEW I'd forgotten someone... Afflalo, damn. You guys think AA's play is the be all and end all of Portland's season?

Yes. He's hitting his shots at very critical times. He definitely gets us to the level we were with Matthews. We just aren't as good as when we had both players.

i would say afflalo, or maybe kanter

[wally_world]

I think most underrated would be DJ Augustin. I hope he gets more burn in the playoffs esp in times when our offence dies down and we get nothing but ISOball from WB and KD.

Enes Kanter for OKC

Before you go off about his defense, he's been crucial with Ibaka injured and his offensive production has been there like every game so far

17/10 on 56% shooting in 30 mpg, his defense is a negative, but according to stats, he's a positive in the floor. 23.1 PER and .214 WS/48. I guess the very efficient offensive production outweighs his below-average defense. 22/10 on 10/13 shooting in a 4-point win against the Celtics.

[Bobcats2013]

I would say Kanter, but OKC isn't a playoff bound team.

OKC has the 8th best record in the West

[Hittin_Shots]

Boston are sitting 8th atm same as OKC, so Isaiah could be big.

Then there's dragic also.

C's are 4 - 2 without him playing since the trade, 6 - 4 with him
