Full-rebuild, Nuclear-option LMA Trade thoughts

I'd take that bet on the FOR side. He's going to be one of the top 4 rookie guards.

You're on!

Nobody thought Roy was going to be Rookie of the Year either when we drafted him.

a few did. Unless you mean posters.

I honestly don't have a clue.

I'll take that bet. If he makes either team I owe you a beer.

I am more of a foo foo drink kinda guy, unless that is offensive to our guest from the North?

I think Lillard has a decent shot at ROY, or at least being a top 3 contender for it. He's a shoot-first PG who is in a back court without any other scorers. Really, after Aldridge, who is likely to be our second leading scorer? My guess is Lillard will call his own number a lot.

In the past 20 years, all but 3 of the ROY's have scored more than 15 ppg. 9 of those ROY's have been ball-dominating guards. 7 have been point guards.

Between his position, his age, his style of play, and his history of scoring on otherwise limited offensive teams, he seems to have a lot of factors in place to be right in the mix when the ROY ballot comes out.

Okay, a foo foo drink is the bet then.
