In that case do you just let Nurk walk or is there a way for us to recoup some value in a sign and trade?

Sign and trade obviously and Nurk is gonna be expensive You're gaining salary and upside. I think Duren will pretty easily replace Nurk and has a MUCH higher ceiling. Sign and Trade is of course what we should do if at all possible. Send him to Boston or the Grizzlies maybe for one of their millions of defenders at the wing.

They didn't get screwed. They got what was coming to them. They tanked and it failed miserably.

Why should we? Teams that put their best players on the injury list so they can lose games and get into the lottery don’t deserve a break.

Read your own comment and get back to us about Houston and OKC. It has not worked out.

OKC is about to add Banchero to their young core and are getting better

Houston is about to add Smith to a core with Green, and Wood. They are getting better.

The Blazers are headed the other direction

Getting the 10th pick would mean we failed miserably. This just means we failed lol. The 7th pick we still can get a game changer.

Okay. I can agree with that other than there being any kind of Game Changer at 7 in the next 2 years.

OKC has 1000000000000000000000000 picks, SGA and the #2 pick they look amazing right now compared to the 10 years of mediocrity Blazers. OKC's future is bright. Houston just started tanking and has a #3 pick this year. You didn't answer are you a Season Ticket Holder or do you have zero reason to be against the tank? Because it's one or the other if you have any sense of strategy which is why billion dollar teams do it and guys on the internet think it's a bad idea.
 
We'v got assets to make moves....
Should be a decent 3/4 at seven...
Remember its at least a 3 year plan....

I’d trade the 7 pick for Kuminga.
 
Having a pity party doesn't help anyone. The Blazers coaches and Joe are all out in Chicago for the Combine. There's gonna be a lot of really good players available at our pick. Maybe a guy who might be one of the best. I'm looking forward to the Draft. Go Blazers!
 
To the Anti-Tank folks. Look, guys who spend a few 1000 a year on Season Tickets I totally get the rage at tanking. Totally get it.

Guys, who watch at home on illegal free streams? You should be pro-tanking. It clearly works which is why so many BILLIONS of dollars worth of teams have done it every year for decades now. Or maybe you know better than people paid millions to be experts right? LOL.
 
At least we won’t be mocked for the next 20 years for who we take with this pick, look at the bright side.

Two posters have said we will be like the Mavericks next season. That would be a good place to start. Lets watch them evolve with their confidence in us being in the WCF next year as the offseason continues.
 
Well that does it for the only excitement we were gonna get for this season.
Lets see what next year holds.
Have fun looks like Keegan Murray but if it was me picking on draft day it would be
Ochai Ogbaji with the 7th pick and i would keep him and not trade him away for Grant.

I agree and I really like BlazerKor's idea of trading down to the Spurs for #9 and #25 and trading #25 and Bucks 2025 to Detroit for Grant. I think we can get Duren at #9 and then S&T Nurk to a team that needs a Center for a wing defender. I forgot Grizz have Adams now so scratch them.
 
I don’t give a shit if Duren cant shoot 3s, at 18 he looks like a fucking body builder and has hops. Last young guy I saw that looked like that at 18 was Dwight. Dude is gonna bully people in the paint and not throw up weak shit layups from 2 feet out.

We don’t have a good enough pick for Murray. He would be perfect for us.
 
Progress report: we’re fucked. It’s early but I think it’s safe to say. Maybe we’ll get a better pick next season…or the season after that.
