Actually, that's a pretty lame peice of writing. Not only in style, but in substance as well.

Ever thought of changing careers before it's too late?

Best of luck!

Please tell me that author didn't get paid to write that piece of shit. BLAZER PROPHET FTW in the comments, though.

"The Oregon Commentator" indeed.

decent post.

The difference is that most people can't trade for a Danny Granger or Jose Calderon without giving up a ton in return. Personally, I'd rather have 2 years of old-and-slow Jason Kidd than Steve Blake, but that's just me. If the option is to get Chris Paul, sure---I'll totally give up my dreams of Kidd and Nash. But if it's between sticking with Outlaw and Blake as our "veteran core", or going after someone like Vince Carter, RJ, Butler, gerald Wallace---the whole point is to make the team better.

That was rude.

So?

I consider it "honest".

Now, if I wanted to be rude I could have called his heritage in many unseemly ways.

But I wouldn't do that.

It'd be rude.



OK, OK, maybe it was a bit rude.

The guy who wrote this "article" seems no more informed, and probably less well informed, than the average poster on this board. He's entitled to his opinion, but it's clearly based on nothing more than the random firings of neuron's within his own brain.

Come to think of it, he probably does post here.

Since we are on the eve of the NBA draft, I find tonight of particular interest for those sports fans born here in Oregon.

You see, the only thing we have here in Oregon is the Blazers–there’s no baseball team, the soccer is, well… soccer and the only football played in the state is at the respective universities. But the Blazers are so beloved they have sold out more than 60 consecutive games at the Rose Garden. That’s more than LeBron

That's as far as I made it before my eyes began to fill with tears out of shear boredom.

Along with Pritchard’s notorious reputation for stockpiling talent for no apparent reason,

What in the fuck is the author talking about?
