If the Hawks and Mavs can get the #1 pick at the end of the lottery odds, I think it's about time the Blazers win it for a change.

I was so excited for the season to start since everything else around us has gone to shit. Needed that distraction. But almost immediately our coach has been pursued by the FBI and half our roster has been decimated by injuries. Ah, feels like 2025 and being a Blazers fan to me. :twothumbs:

It's so annoying that we passed on him and Coward. Queen is an absolute baller and always was.

I haven't noticed any Clingan bashing. Just wanted him to do a bit more. He's been pretty good all season. His highs last season were really high and of course, being a greedy fan base we want more of that. He can be a real game changer if he keeps it up.

Great size. Pretty good bb IQ. Good on defense. Offense has been nonexistent until last night. Would be a good player if he can contribute on that end.

You've been avoiding my posts in the OT thread to find me here? :twothumbs:

This is the Clingan I want to be seeing. He's been great the last 4 games. Great to see Tou turn it around. Deni is a bonafide star. Siddy has been doing good things the last few games. Hope he can keep it up.

I don't think Orlando would do that. Lauri is terrific but is he a #1? He doesn't function with the ball in his hands, which is both great and not great. Paolo is a guy you can give the ball to to generate offense. I don't think the Blazers can go all in with a team in disarray like it is now.

Presti traded 5 picks for him. Yes, Presti cut him but that's not due to talent. Someone had to be a casualty to make the roster fit and stay under the cap. It's a low bar. Jones could most certainly be a step up from Cissoko, Rupert, and the rest we're forced to play right now due to injuries...

This is the Clingan I want to be seeing. More fire. More aggression. Silver lining. Deni was great and Grant was very good too. Hansen needs much more pep in his step. He seems pretty far away still though I suppose better than weeks ago. We'd be feasting right now if we had Queen or Coward...

Pull the plug and play Han. Queen has been looking like a star though since he's gotten regular minutes. You just can't keep missing on lottery picks if you ever expect to be something.

One was a lottery pick. The other... I'd still trust Presti in the second round over our own front office picking in the first. Sad to say...

Yang would have to make up an almost unsurmountable ground the way those two have gotten started.

We should do this immediately. I don't care for either Jevonte or Love.

I like Yang, but it was negligent to take him over Coward and Queen. Both of which have been awesome thus far.
