Sure. But the overvaluing stems from the very vocal minority that wanted him as pgotf

Exactly. I was not implying Ramon sucks, because he doesn't. But I do think we over value other players because we only see their highlight's and boxscores for the most part. Some play better with bad teams, and some fit in better with better players. It's not until you watch a player over and over do you really start noticing every single weakness. And when they play for your team, those weaknesses start to stand out and irritate the hell out of you.

Totally. And then people immediately forget when they're gone. I've seen people ask for the returns of jack, Blake, Webster, miler. All obviously beloved blazers. Lol
 
We definitely over-value other teams' players because we don't play any defense, and we mostly see other players when they play against us. In what world should I ever covet Houston's point guards, let alone Beverley?!

To be fair, Webster's weakness was he lost his mojo from beyond the arc. But he's got it back now so why not desire him? :ghoti:
 
I wouldn't move Damian for Conley. Conley is a good player. But he isn't Damian. This team can win big with Damian.
 
I think Lillard improved his trade value tonight. If we can't get two Conleys for him I don't want to trade.
 
Reading this makes me feel like I do when I watch Hoarders. I see those people trying to reason with mentally ill people and I can't stop thinking about how bad I wanna slap the shit out of them.
 
What the fuck is it POS thread and why are we all replying to it? Please delete. My eyes are burning.
 
I think after this thread I hope Portland plays Memphis in the playoffs.

HCP, does your job with the Blazers really take that much time during the season, or are there other projects? I'd be interested to know how the truck crew spends its time. No offense, I always assumed it was a few hours of set-up, the game, the post-game, then cleanup and shutdown. What else is there?

My main job is with the Blazers during the season obviously, but during the all-star break for example, I worked a fight back east for HBO and a game here for Time Warner Sports at UofP. On game days we are at the arena at noon and fly out right after the game to the next city. So pretty much each game day including travel is about 14 hours. When I'm at home like now and its an off day for the Blazers, I'll go down to Eugene and Corvallis to work games. Busy busy busy FAMS!

Come on now based on the comments here us playing Memphis should result in a sweep or at least victory in 5. That would be a good thing for Portland.
