This is now rock bottom

[SlyPokerDog]

Says you. Teams have traded away top 5 picks. Its not unfathomable.

If the trade were reversed would you really want to give up the #5 pick for anyone other than Dame or CJ and the #10 pick? Really?

 

[RonBrewer]

So tempted to put this as a sig in case we win it in the next few years with him here. lol.

Go ahead. I'll eat all the crow in the world

 

[KingSpeed]

We made 11 field goals in the 2nd half.

That's not playing better.

You're handpicking stats. What about the rest of the game? What about the D?

 

[Strenuus]

Blazer fans. Always judging a whole season by the last game. We just hit a hot team, that's all. As a fan, you have to take the rare downs with the ups. And don't forget that at least one of our players has some body part that hurts. And if that doesn't convince you, remember that last night they rolled into town late, so they weren't fully rested. Last, if all else fails, remember that we're just building for the Golden Future. When Meyers Leonard develops his, we will be great.

Didn't we "roll in late" against Cleveland?

And I'm judging off of 23 games (at the least) where we're 6-17 and have won back to back games just twice since Dec. 3rd

I learned from you.

The D was alright. We'll get clobbered by better teams.

No. But there's Billy Kings out there somewhere. Or wannabe Billy Kings. Olsheys turn to fleece someone.

Like Cleveland?

 

[SlyPokerDog]

We can dream.

 

[Minstrel]

No, like Golden State and San Antonio and Houston.

 

[Nikolokolus]

The things these eyes have seen. Rock bottom?! Ha! I was there for Oden's knees, Miles retirement, Hedon't Turkeyglue spurning cosmopolitan Portland, Kevin Pritchard's burnt cake, Brandon's meniscus, Damon's foil, and Qyntel Woods' dogs. I've seen things man; things you people wouldn't believe.

 

[Minstrel]

Rock bottom was quarter 4 of Game 7 of the 2000 Western Conference Finals. Accept no substitutes.

[Drttimmy]

He's got a little Westbrook to his game. Similar builds, too.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Because building out of the draft has been so golden for us in the past!

 

[Strenuus]

LOL. YAY ONE GAME SAMPLE SIZE.

I called this shit.

Fine, let me amend it. We'll get clobbered by better AND worse teams. Plural, more than one game.

 

[Strenuus]

No, like Golden State and San Antonio and Houston.

And Detroit, Charlotte, Washington, Sacremento, Denver... etc, etc, etc.

The Cleveland game is an outlier. It's why it was like "oh... yay... now prove it." To which they haven't.

 

[Nikolokolus]

So . . . what are you saying? Build through free agency?

 

[Blazers Roy]

I think the first step is Neil doing some waste management right now.

It will be great to get rid of Leonard,Crabbe,Turner and maybe even Davis for Noel or a legit 7th man\serviceable expiring guys.

Right now the team is too backed up with trash, it's like we have placeholders at each position instead of admitting we got nothing.

 

[oldfisherman]

I am not depressed over the team's problems right now.

Looking ahead at what can be done to fix the team's problems is what makes me depressed. We could be in for a very rough 3-4 seasons. Olshey doubled down on his winnings, rolled the dice, and crapped out.

 

[Nate]

Tunchi always had some decent points, but the man was constantly saying it as if he was gloating and constantly trashed the team to no end. Got annoying real fast

You mean @A$AP Meyers ?

 

[Nate]

Because building out of the draft has been so golden for us in the past!

Uh..... yeah. All of our best players were drafted....

Would you take any of that for a decent young player like Noel?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Turner has value around the league. Maybe not Noel value though. Of course he is also the 1 of those 3 that I would rather keep. Have to give to get, I understand... I think PHI has interested in Crabbe the most out of those (they have a huge need at SG) but not as much as they were this off-season (they were going to offer him but Nets beat them to the punch) and a pick would need to be thrown in.

 

[Blazers Roy]

Would you take any of that for a decent young player like Noel?

They need Crabbe (and maybe another wing from a third team in a trade) more than they need Noel.

If i were them i would trade Embiid, because i see him as a ticking time bomb.

 

[Blazers Roy]

I just want to add that this upcoming trade deadline might mark our true rock bottom.

Microsoft guy feels like an angry loser--->Soap opera star begins to sweat from his forehead--->mouth-breathing Odell Beckham impersonator gets his ass shipped to the New York Anxieties for princess Noah--->Stefan Urkel transforms into a Bullet while Bradly "Hospital" Beal arrives with a wheelchair to the Moda Center--->Tunchi is selected from the crowd and hits a halfcourt shot to win 100,000$.
etc etc...

 

[3RA1N1AC]

i want a top 5 pick. give me a top 5 pick!

 

[blue9]

No, now THIS is rock bottom. Well done, guys. Well done.

 

[KingSpeed]

Our three best players last night are our three lottery picks.

 

[Trackjack]

You giving up alot for Noel why this guy haven't done crap this year. I can't trade for a player by past 2 years I what he is doing now. This is his contract year for RFA and he not proving anything that I would pay a big money contract.

 

[Strenuus]

Okay, okay... lets stop calling Meyers a lottery pick - because I sure as hell don't feel lucky we have him.
