Blazers and the WNBA

[THE HCP]

Love the circle jerk here, but let’s call a spade a spade.

The inclusion is great, but it’s not going well. It’s a complete dumpster fire.

I love the title on ESPN headline is, “Meet the WNBA stars powering the Blazers rebuild”.

WHAT REBUILD?

Where did you expect this team to be right now?

If Blazers really cared about diversity they would have dogs in the front office.

Does this man hate DOGS?

Kinda shifty looking? Like a CAT.

I didn’t expect them to be very good … let me point you to my thread “This offseason was a complete failure”.

Nah I'm good. I don't need your thread. This is an under .500 team, should have been pretty obvious in September bro.

Major roster issues. The lack of addressing it at trade deadline points to the obvious TANK city, baby

I think a back-door tank was a likely direction after the Blazers found their available assets didn't have much value at the trade deadline. Cronin has made some mistakes in my view but he pretty clearly inherited a broken roster that had almost no valuable assets. It's pretty hard to turn a dime into a quarter and that seems to be the kind of hurdle he has to complete to upgrade the roster. I didn't really see any trades around the deadline that appeared to be realistic missed opportunities for Portland. Maybe I didn't track all the trades though

It was obvious to me way before September, which is why this fluff piece is complete bullshit. This “rebuild” has been a complete disaster.
