    Yes, the Blazers used the 6th pick on Martell Webster. Another team didn't pick Webster, and then trade him to Portland.

    As I was saying, troll.

    Actually, we traded for the 7th pick as well. It was part of the Sebastian Telfair trade. So it was a trade from a trade.

    That doesn't matter and is completely beside the point. The Blazers had that #6 pick in that draft and drafted in that position. How they received the #6 pick is irrelevant.

    Re: Blazers Have the 6th and 11th Picks in 2012 Draft

    Let me slow it down for you.

    And then

    And then

    And then

    To which I responded

    and then

    and finally


    You said that the last player we selected at #6 was Martell Webster. Someone mentioned that we drafted Roy at #6 and you said that didn't count because we traded for him. That's a silly stance because we traded for the 6th pick to draft Webster AND we traded for the 7th pick which we eventually flipped for the 6th pick which was Roy. The point is, none of those picks were ours originally. They were all acquired in trade. That's why you are wrong.

    We're calling him chief now. I think he's more of a chief than a captain.

    He'd definitely more of a wet surape than a Chief or Captain.

    Re: Blazers Have the 6th and 11th Picks in 2012 Draft

    I'm not sure why you're confused. Portland had the 6th pick in the 2005 draft and selected Martell Webster. They had a 7th pick in the 2006 drafted, drafted Randy Foye, and then traded him to Minnesota, who drafted Roy at #6. It doesn't matter in my scenario how the draft position was determined; it matters which player the Blazers drafted, and at which spot. The last time the BLAZERS drafted 6th, they chose Martell Webster. That's a fact.

    Good luck on the job interview. Hopefully there aren't many questions pertaining to deductive reasoning, troll.

    Re: Blazers Have the 6th and 11th Picks in 2012 Draft

    The Blazers had the 3rd pick in the 2005 draft. They traded it to Utah for the 6th pick. The point is, you're trying to discount Roy because he was officially taken by the Timberwolves and then traded to us. Who cares what hat he put on after he walked across the stage? The point was that Minny was picking for us, making the the pick ours. He was traded that day to us. You didn't take any issue with Crand mentioning Bonzi Wells on her list and he was drafted by the Pistons and then traded to us.

    He's been in a bad mood lately. I'm thinking it has something to do with the wife.

    Re: Blazers Have the 6th and 11th Picks in 2012 Draft

    I'm not "discounting" Roy. I'm pointing out that the Blazers didn't have the 6th pick, and that when Roy's name was called, it was by Minnesota.

    I also don't care about Bonzi Wells. I was mentioning the 6th pick. Thanks for your concern though, troll.

    The biggest troll on this board is a moderator. Just look at his signature, and also at his posts in the "This Has to Stop" power trip.

    Did you put S2 Global Moderator on your resume? Was your prospective employer impressed at your leadership and assertiveness in the "This Has to Stop" thread. That's some initiative you showed there! You'll be a "Producer" in no time!
