I think Dame has arrived nationally ... finally. Business like. A great leader. Always positive. Didn't want to build his own "Super Team". ...
After we beat the Nuggets, we will get even more famous.
Just hope our role players show up. I would consider playing Anfernee .. for ET and Hood. I doubt Stotts will do it ... but, ...

No kidding. He won't even play Jake. Would Jake do worse than Hood?
 
Anfernee is already a legend in my book. He gave us the Thunder ...
Without Anfernee, we would be playing the boring, scrappy and crappy Utah Jazz and probably losing in 6 games.

Yes. Hoods offensive game has been bad, but His defense as a big guard is better than Jakes. I wouldve liked to see them give Jake a shot to see what he could do in the playoffs but I can understand the hesitation to play him too.

Also next series, if its against Denver might be more fast paced and maybe that’d be a good match up for jake.

My thought too. I'd rather have Jake for offense and Hood for defense. It somewhat depends on match-ups. Maybe Hood will make some shots, and maybe Stotts will keep an open mind about putting Jake in the game in situations where we need his hustle game.

Guys, as i said earlier, Lillard is responsible for the greatest sport moment in my life, but at the same time WE DON'T HAVE TO OVERREACT!

Are you mentally drained after this series? if so, think about the fact that it was only ONE SERIES.

Bill Walton won us A TITLE, winning 4 series of playoffs, and he would have won many more if he stayed healthy.

We can't underestimate that, winning a title is such a difficult thing that puts Bill, even in a short period of time, at the top of everybody.

I totally understand being prisoner of the moment, but we can't ignore past greatness.

If we swap their career i think everybody would agree, but Walton being so far in time makes his perception different.

I would have to agree, but its 1 and
1a for me.
There are many checks on a greatest ever checklist.
Walton has the hardware.
Dame has everything else.
Now if we're not penalizing Bill for an injury shortened career, then I have to slide Brandon ahead of Clyde. We forget how good he was.
Shit, he was Damian, before Damian.

Roy lead this team to 53 wins and a dissapointing playoff series loss with home court. So basically what we accomplished last year against New Orleans. Roy was hobled from injuries in the other playoffs or we accomplished trips to the lottery.

Damian has been to the playoffs every year except his rookie season winning 3 series. He has far exclipsed Roy, it's not close at all. He's unselfish and a leader at a level Roy (and 99.9% of people) never accomplish.

Damian is far above Roy and it's not even close at all.
 
If Dame plays out his entire career in Portland, he will never leave. Dame is Portland. He won't ghost us like Roy did.

Post playing days I could see him spending years in the Bay area or even some time in Utah. I'd be fine with that. But I agree he would stay connected and active in Portland.

Which is exactly why i have Dame on top!
Brandon = #3...
Clyde= #4.
Read it again.

Period.

End of discussion.

No, but he's getting there. I place him third behind Walton and Lucas, a shade above Brandon Roy.
If you rank him above Walton then you never saw Walton play.

No, "bruh," actually it's not. You see, anywhere they're mentioned is the "right" place.

Actually ROOK... You're wrong...

Politics is kept in the OT section.

Understand the forum rules...

Funny that you keep calling him "rook". You do see that his join date is three years earlier than yours, right?
 
Dame > Drexler

If you put Dame on that Blazers team, I'm not sure if we lose to Jordan and we DEFINITELY don't lose to Detroit.
