LOL. Meant Sunny Day fan. Freudian slip, for sure.
 
Yep. The New Year hasn’t changed much: the Blazers still have lots of problems. I’m hoping for a major trade before the deadline.

It’s time. Time for a rebuild. I’m not even convinced that Billups is an answer.

Makes no sense to trade CJ nor Dame until this Summer. That said, RoCo and Nurk could go now or after the season as we have bird rights. But I’d like to start the rebuild now and move RoCo and Nurk - and if need-be CJ to find youth and picks…maybe Simmons
 
On a completely different note - I’ve just finished watching an hour-long documentary:

Luc Longley and the “missing chapter” of the Last Dance - very good. I never really liked Luc Longley…but after watching, I truly think this guy is pretty special!

What channel or streaming service?
 
For the first time in years I've missed watching some games. Though its also been the busy time ever for me, regarding personal things going on, providing little time to watch. But even if i had more time, i think i could spend it more constructively…

Accounts to go along with his burner phone.
 
Yeah, this season is a shit show. A train wreck. It's hard to watch.

This is quite a story about Australian Luc Longley who was the Center of the 96-98 NBA Champion Chicago Bulls! Thank you for this link. Now that I have watched it, the reasons for imagining that Nurk could know about this and might aspire to a similar success story emerge. After seeing the photo of Uncle Nurk at Dame's twins birthday, and thinking about his persoality, Nurk may seem to have many of the major positive attributes that make Luc a champion, and might form strong elements for Nurk becoming a Blazer NBA Champion. Perhaps Chauncey's coaching strengthened by Roy and Rodney can get Nurk there. If so, building the Blazer contenders around Dame and Nurk are worth serious consideration.

the difference: Nurk thinks he’s great and he’s not now great. He elevates maybe 1/4” and doesn’t rebound well. He once claimed that he’d earn Defensive Player of the Year! Well, you’re right; he needs a Phil Jackson and a Jordan to push him. I’ll bet Pops at San Antonio would have Nurk playing good ball.
 
Back when Simons was a rookie, Dame spoke so highly of him, like in the tune of, "he will take over when I'm gone." He did say this about a rookie Ant.

Based on what Ant was showing at the time, my reaction to Dame's comment was, "he's only saying that because it's his teammate." Even though he hasn't spoken so highly of anyone else, let alone a 19-year-old.

Fast forward to today. Dame saw something in Ant. He meant what he said. Simons is a real deal.
