[Mediocre Man]

Rookies we draft and sign dont count against the salary cap?

2 nd rounders dont

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

2 nd rounders dont

What?!?! I thought every player on your roster had an impact on a teams salary cap.

 

[BrianFromWA]

2nds --not until they sign. 1st-rounders have a cap hold, 2nds don't.

I guarantee you that Barton doesn't get a contract signed until after we blow all of our cap space.

 

[Nikolokolus]

So in three years when Barton is our starting shooting guard and is leaps and bounds more productive than the two guys picked ahead of him on the roster, will Olshey get credit for mining a gem, or will he get criticized for the two that aren't meeting expectations?

Ha! We'll be working on a big extension for Lillard in 3 years. Kid is gonna be a STUD.

 

[OregonHuskerMan]

Lillard
Barton
Batum
Aldridge
Meyers

Could be very, very good.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Olshey is talking about a blood bath over one of the choices. I hope Born was the one who he listened to

 

[Mediocre Man]

Lillard
Barton
Batum
Aldridge
Meyers

Could be very, very good.

In how many years?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Barton strikes me as a gunner off the bench.

ok I have to say I am in and out of view at this time, but I thought we gave Barton to NJ?

Tyshawn Taylor went to NJ.

edit: not NJ, Brooklyn.

Nope. Taylor went to BKN

 

[DaLincolnJones]

okk thanks

 

[OregonHuskerMan]

A couple, didn't mean to put Barton in there. I think he'll be solid, but I'm higher on EW.

At any rate, I think Lillard will be very, very effective this year.

Lillard - Going to be very, very impressive this year, IMO. Strong in the PnR, will pull doubles off of LMA.
Wes - Decent
Batum - Above average
Aldridge - We already know.
Meyers - Our fate lies here, with what we can or cannot sign here. If we get Hibbert, we could compete fairly soon IMO.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Barton - 6'6" 174 lbs! o0

LOL...

How is it going to feel next year when HOU 3 picks of Lamb, White & Jones out perform Lillard and Leonard who were BOTH taken before them?

INEPT organization...worst scouting staff in the NBA, plus the most meddlesome owner in professional sports since Al Davis = Fucking disaster....

You're so butthurt LOL

 

[Ed O]

This draft strikes me as a needs-based draft, which is a good idea (I guess) for a team that is missing a few key pieces.

The Blazers are a mess in terms of their talent level, and this draft is a bit like patching a couple holes in a ship that 2/3 under water.

Wow. Disaster = this post. I don't love this, but it ain't as disastrous as you make it, Mixum.

Hope you got a change of pants.

Strikes me as a team trying to look at BPA and picking players that are almost as good as BPA due to needs.

 

[RoyToy]

FUCK OFF...

How is that?

LOL

Talk about melting down

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Been a longer fan that you dickweed....

and Disaster = this fucking draft....uh...just like last year.....

Your birth was a disaster.

[JfizzleBlazer]

I'm not incredibly happy with our draft. But I'm willing to give these guys a shot to see what they do.

I'm also not going to judge until we see what happens in free agency.
