Out of curiosity I just checked the last few drafts by Olshey and the guy absolutely is something else.

2012: Lillard is the 2nd best player in the draft class. The only players taken after Meyers better than him are Draymond Green at 35 and Khris Middleton at 39. Will Barton at 40 is extremely solid.

2013: CJ McCollum is the best player in the draft class. Only Oladipo comes close. Allen Crabbe is going top 10 in a redraft as well. Other shooting guards taken in the lottery are Ben McLemore, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, and Allen Crabbe is easily better than both.

2014/2015: The NBA is lucky they haven’t had to suffer another Olshey draft.

Olshey is easily top 5 General Manager in the NBA.

Love these 8pm/ 7pm start times for me. I might be one of the few Blazer fans who enjoy the eastern road trip.s

Ehhh, I'd take Giannis pretty easily at 1, Gobert 2, MCW 3, then CJ.

Noel 5, Mason 6.


Man what a shitty draft

 

[B-Roy]

Lol at MCW third.

I'd take Oladipo over MCW or CJ.

Giannis, Oladipo and Gobert.

 

[illmatic99]

I'd take Oladipo over MCW or CJ.

Giannis, Oladipo and Gobert.

Fair enough. MCW is nothing to sneeze at , 15-6-6 over his career.

 

[B-Roy]

Fair enough. MCW is nothing to sneeze at , 15-6-6 over his career.

Mediocre raw numbers on awful awful teams, a career TS% of 47% (LOL), a career 3.6 TOs per game, career ORTG of 94, and a debilitating ability to shoot the ball in a league that values shooting more than ever.

Bucks fans hate him and Philly didn't care enough to drop him after he won ROY. He would still go lottery but only because that draft class was awful.

 

[Tunchi]

MCW is garbage lol

Say hi to that one guy who was going to sue us. LOL Can't think of his name at the moment.

Dudes, we're a game out of the 8th seed. 3 games out of HCA


WTF

Is the West weaker, or is everyone just beating up on each other a lot this year? With the exception of the Ws and Spurs, no one has a great record. Jazz are in 7th with a .500 record. Weird.

If NO/MIN/PHX gets a better pick than us, I'm gonna be slightly irate.

When to the Blazers get a logo change?

 

[THE HCP]

They better not change our logo. Only acceptable change would be to go old school pinwheel.

This suggestion brought to you by BGD!

West is weaker outside of the last two champs. 11th place in East would make playoffs in West right now.

Its Bambi with a basketball takin a shit

 

[BBert]

Never, unless they untilt the pinwheel.

You should be flogged, banned and flogged again for even posting that.

 

[THE HCP]

You must be 8 years old! Thats one of the dopest old school logos in league history.

 

[MarAzul]

They better not change our logo. Only acceptable change would be to go old school pinwheel.

I don't know how many times I have to tell people, the original logo was not a pinwheel! It was a "blaze"! Like a real trail blazer would leave on a tree.

What have you done with Tunchi and how did you hack his account?

 

[Jade Falcon]

I'm watching this on a free stream, Blazers Broadcast, and the sound is terrible.

I'd watch the Bucks broadcast, but I can't stand the constant fellatio commentary of a team I don't follow.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Maybe I should have made a lower prediction, like 32-28
