    You should just go bump HCP's win prediction thread from a couple years ago.

    Oh did you mean LAST season's when I made the closest prediction out of anybody here? Is THAT the one you are talking about? Just checking.

    There is a big difference when you're off by 20+ wins, and when you're off by 5.

    We aren't talking about JinxSpeed last season saying we would win 70 games and finish ahead of the Warriors and Spurs.

    Bro, I hope you're just joking with me. Because you've kinda' come at me sideways for the past year. Always the first one to say some shit to me. If you are then cool, but if you have a real problem with me on here or off, let me know.

    I don't care about you. Sometimes you're annoying. I poke fun at you when you're being annoying. I don't have a "real problem" with anyone on here because I don't know or care about anyone on here.

    Well, your top target of Beal wouldn't have been a bad consolation prize if the Blazers had passed on Dame.

    Beal went 3rd in that draft, how would the Blazers have gotten him?

    Obviously, they couldn't unless the Wizards had taken Dame and two other teams had passed on Beal. I wasn't trying to make a case for reordering the draft...just that MM wasn't a bad judge of talent.

    I think we should draft Lillard.

    So i decided to go back to the beginning of this blog and check it out. I came along to this site later after the Oregonian Blazers Forum went by the wayside. Once i started reading the post i couldn't stop. I spent over 2 hours reading before finally having to stop to go to work. I was truly amused by some of the laughable post by Blaze01. This dude was totally anti-Dame. He was relentless with his disapproval of even the thought of picking Dame. He would mention how the Blazers needed to draft Austin Rivers or Kendall Marshall, Jared Sullinger, or Dion Waiters. He hammered out what he felt were bad stats, and excused his good ones as bunk. Rasta to a lesser extent was funny too, but he has owned up to it. Thumbs up Rasta. So i'm gonna go back and read more. I'm up to the draft now. Just shows you that the draft is a crapshoot on it's best day. Yes AD was a "no-miss". But alot of other supposedly top choices (Waiters, Robinson) were mediocre at best. And a small school, combine stud (Lillard) is everything and more to his franchise, and is among the top players in the League. Go figure.
