Right now I'm happy to see Grant emerge as our best go to guy and with Shaedon starting to develop as well as GP coming into the picture...I like Jabari's development too but we're clearly missing the pt forward play of Winslow and his help defense. ...the 3J's have been good additons. Eubanks has been a good addition ....Keon has promise. TURNOVERS are the elephant in the room and Dame and Ant have way too many for guards We need better 3 pt shooting off the bench and a backup mobile 7ft guy for the Gobert games.
 
I've only voted for Grant so far in the allstar ballot....I think Dame has missed too many games to be in the running other than making it a popularity contest. I also hope he gets rest before the back stretch leading into the playoffs.

If a Blazer makes it, it will be Grant.
 
Dame has votes and that's it. Not a lot, 2x more than Austin Reeves.

What do you think has to happen for him to become our "2nd best player" that he was predicted to become?

Stay a Blazer would be the first thing that comes to mind? Will they trade him?
Then over the next 2-3 years he needs to work really hard and play really well.
He's fun to watch though. I do see him doing better on both sides of the ball. Made some good plays last night.

Hopefully just a couple more seasons of steady improvement... his year 4 he'll be the same age Dame was his rookie year. Next season should be telling if he's going to be that guy

STOMP

This grown ass man said I made him “feel bad”
Because I don’t think my lifelong favorite team isn’t going to the finals every year. You can’t make this shit up.

To be fair, they haven't gone since '92. I don't think even the biggest homer is expecting every year. Once in 3 decades is quite a drought.

There was at least one person here making a case a month ago this was a championship contending team; even bet on the Blazers winning it all.

I would assume Dame is most likely.

I figured he wouldn't be eligible having missed a third of the games so far. Glad to see he has votes.

People paid attention to that nonsense or took it even remotely seriously?

I've given up trying to figure out what nonsense takes are taken seriously around here. Though a quick look back around here at the 15 game mark, there sure was A LOT of optimism.
 
Maybe Grant will be in the three point contest.
