NBA Guru @NBAGuru Damian Lillard looks fantastic in the agility drills. Easily one of the quickest guys here, if not THE quickest.
This will solidify his top 10 standings even more, especially if the actual numbers are viewed as very good vs top guys in previous drafts
Chris Haynes @ChrisBHaynes The #Blazers have their team psychologist here at the NBA combine. She interviewed 8 players yesterday & is scheduled to interview 5 today
Chris Haynes @ChrisBHaynes The most common questions draft prospects are being asked are, "Do you smoke weed and do you drink?"
Things change so quickly, and I know they continue to do so. But if you had told me a couple weeks ago (assuming we stay at 6 and 11) that we'd draft Lillard and PJ3, I'd have been somewhat disappointed. Now, it seems like we'd be lucky (Lucky in the sense that these guys currently appear to be climbing the ranks - not in the sense that these guys are for sure going to be studs).

To determine if they will support our local economy? Beer, wine, and liquor are a huge industry for Oregon (weed probably is, too - but I don't have stats for that).
Jonathan Givony @DraftExpress How? RT @brewhoop: Heard some guys "tank" their reach because it inflates their vert number (which is calculated as difference). Your take?
Interesting read. If true it looks like Barnes will be gone for sure before the 6th pick, leaving us with Beal if we want him. I understand things change quickly, but right now it looks like we would be choosing between Lillard and Beal at #6
