Portland needs to add a go-to player

[Minstrel]

Unless the player is a big who can shoot and score with high usage as well as play defense (like a Kevin Love with good defense), the Blazers can't solve their roster issues with one guy. They need more shooting in the front court and they need more defense across the roster and they need at least one more guy who can create for himself and others. There isn't a quick fix to that, it'll take at least another wave of roster building.

Kid is young and could really become a good player.

He has to want it AND understand he isn't there yet AND understand how much MORE work it's going to take to reach the top. Maybe with Dame in his ear he might get there. [fingers crossed]

For whoever is suggesting Harrison Barnes... hell no. Let's not pay the max for a player who is half as good as Batum.

How about the new and improved 2016-2017 Maurice Harkless? We won't really know until the unveiling next fall, but I'm anxious to see next year's model.
