You know what's got a worse history? Anywhere in the 2nd round, which is where this dude belonged

Yeah, not gonna debate that with you. Maybe you're right, maybe you're not. But he has moved up substantially and mocked late first round in some recently.
 
It’s a joke of a pick but I guess this is what POR is doing.
 
Join me, brothers, as more and more of you see the light that is the ineptitude and disrespectfulness of this organization towards its fans.

Theres light refreshments. Please, converse amongst yourselves.
 
All of you people saying "we could've got him later" -
(a) how do you know? You don't know who else fell in love with this guy. Just because we don't know who the fuck he is doesn't mean people whose job it is to know didn't.
(b) maybe we couldn't get a lower pick. I get the impression this was all rushed and we got the only trade down that was there.
 
Ok but the “Big Tariff” nickname floating around Twitter might make this all worth it. Cause it sent me.

If a second round player only mocks up to late first round and gets taken middle first round, its a shitty pick. Youre right, there is no debating. The fact is its a shitty pick.

I honestly couldn't give a fuck about this. You don't draft the player your fans want, you draft the best player. That's why the Pacers took Reggie Miller instead of local hero Steve Alford and got booed for it.

Fans don't know jack. I know, I am one.

The defense is encouraging. But suppose he does work out: is Clingan the backup?
