Thomas Robinson over Dame was horrible.
He drafted Lillard, signed him to a supermax contract, and refuses to trade him. How great can he be?
And he'd vehemently disagree with your opinion on Lillard. So do you think he'd be wrong in that conversation?
He’s great at drafting. That’s all you need to really be good at in a market like ours. That’s how we will eventually build a title contending team. Olshey can do that. I have no doubt if he was a Gm in a bigger market he would probably eventually win a title. I can see him finally luring free agents to play for his team. It’s hard to do that here.
Other than that his draft success dating back to the clippers is really quite good. Only thing that holds him back is getting those finishing touches difference makers in free agency. But that’s more the city and out of his control.
All in all, we are lucky to have him.
Those who irrationally hate always use the "I'm not a homer" bullshit to try and make their argument look more valid.We’d have a disagreement and move on. What’s the big deal? I bet he’d appreciate how I’m not a homer and on Lillards jock..
A WCF team is automatically a title contending team by getting that far..Let's make it past the second round of the playoffs first. Hunh.
Good post, focus on Lillard less, bring this to the table more.He’s great at drafting. That’s all you need to really be good at in a market like ours.

So Carrick Felix and Markief Morris left the bench area. Better hear about a suspension, or I'm sorry for my rules are rules comments.
A great post until you think for three seconds about GJ’s opinions on Lillard then it sounds insane.Good post, focus on Lillard less, bring this to the table more.
Had it been Lebron he wouldn't have been thoughThey were suspended even through they aren't playing for Portland. Shocking
Dviss, how old is your kid? Elementary school
Fun age, you'll see him really take off on a growth spurt in the next 18 months.....becoming a young man. Wish him the best!He just turned 11 on October 18th. 5th Grade.
I believe weve had a pretty easy schedule as well. It is goinbg to definitely pick up in a bit though.Fun facts for the morning:
Blazers alone atop the division (every other team is exactly 1 game behind us).
We are 4th in the league in SOS - so regardless of the fact that at least one "fan" here thinks we've had an easy schedule, we in fact, have not.

Sounds like you are doing a great job man. Props to you. It's tough, but a rewarding challenge.I truly have a great kid. He's got all the big things handled.
It's just the regular things that get on my nerves like having the attention span of a gnat. LOL. Typical 11 year old.
- Bedtime? No complaints. 5 mins KNOCKED out.
- Mealtime? His only dislikes are marmalade and Swiss Chard. Ummm... Ok I won't fix that shit then. LOL!
- Relating to others? When we go places he asks: "are there going to be friends there?". They are already friends before he meets them.
- Working hard? "nobody's gonna work harder than me Papa!"
- Doing well in school? He gets excited to go and is sad during vacation. "School is easy. I love math and reading" "I can't wait to go back to school".
- Choosing clothes? He likes whatever. Isn't a brand whore... yet...

Is it possible that Pritchard made the correct trade? Also, Sabonis is averaging over 10 rebounds in less than 26 minutes and shooting 66%.![]()
Oladipo is comfortably better than anyone we could have offered. Our three picks were supposed to be the value but it might be so that Indiana just didn't feel they were worth more than Oladipo.

Oladipo has plaued ehat 6 games as a pacer? Is that Paul's numbers from this year? If they are an accumulated stat from his years in Indiana then its a bogus comparison. If they are from this year, it has to be taken into account that Paul has help in Westbrook and Melo and doesn't need to put as big as numbers. Oladipo is going to cool down. The season is still early.
PRITCHSLAP!!!!Is it possible that Pritchard made the correct trade? Also, Sabonis is averaging over 10 rebounds in less than 26 minutes and shooting 66%.![]()
Those 3 picks turned into Zach and Caleb. I like them but I doubt you'll find many people who wouldn't trade them for Indiana Paul George in .000001 of a second.That still doesn't mean pissy should've passed on taking the 3 draft picks. This draft was LOADED and I'd much rather have 3 rookies on a rebuilding team than Oladipo's bloated deal.![]()
If it wasn't for the fucking lucky Griffin 3 we'd be tied with Memphis for the lead.
