    I'm sorry, this is hilarious. Yes, obviously Sharpe is 4th option kind of guy. Holy shit...

    Sounds like you actually ARE putting stock into the tank game.

    I didn’t think green font was necessary.

    John Butler has some surprisingly good defensive instincts.

    I’m not the one saying guys like Knox and Mayes are keepers.

    I never said Knox was a keeper. I said what I think he needs to do to be a contributor.
    Mays looks like a competent backup point guard.

    Sharpe’s ability to gamble and recovery is seriously impressive. Terrance Mann isn’t a scrub.

    All he needs to do is not ball-watch too much.

    Do the Clips have the most ex-Blazers (I count 4) of any NBA team?

    At this point I’m not even sure Watford and Walker are keepers let alone any of the guys they have picked up.

    I hope Cronin is thinking that too. He needs to be constantly working to improve the roster.

    Yes that's the hope. But I don't trust that dude with much of anything anymore...so we shall see.

    I think Simons is gone this summer.

    If you don't know that Watford is a keeper, then I am glad you are not in our front office.

    Yeah, he's our second biggest contract heading into this off season so if Joe is serious about getting Dame some help that has some experience then Ant will have to be going out in that trade just to match salaries. I honestly think that on draft day Joe will get someone sending out Ant, Nurk and multiple FRPs and I think he could get Dame the best player he's played with.

    The clippers and wolves have no excuse for being as bad as they are.

    The range of opinion on these guys is pretty amazing. People wanted Walker playing consistent role minutes to start the season. Earlier this week, there was push back to the idea that Watford should only be a situational backup.

    The worst Clippers and Wolves teams you've seen in your lifetime?

    I think you are a little blinded by that summer league MVP trophy.
    He’s going to play somewhere but not sure it needs to be for Portland.
