    I wonder if you'd have said the same thing before the 2003 draft?

    But will we really have that much cap space? With Batum, raises for Lopez and Dame, etc? Just asking.

    I don't think Portland makes the playoffs in the west swapping out LMA/Matthews for Wiggins/cap space. What good is cap space when the team has shown it will take steps backward, and when has Portland every been high on any superstar's free agent destination?

    I wonder if you'd have said the same thing before the 2007 draft. Portland drafted a "once-in-a-generation" player, or so I was told. 8000 people showed up in Pioneer Square to greet that player, I was happened to drive right by the huge crowd because I was working downtown.

    Why would Charlotte or Denver give up any future asset for one year of LMA? I just don't see him signing there long-term. May as well move to Texas and take less money, yet make it up on not having a state income tax.

    Had they took the right person number 1 then trading an all star for that pick would have been worth it.

    Lillard has not reached his prime, I thought the being premature thing only happened in bed.

    Everything ok with you? I made smart ass posts like this for Eric's guarantee and you suspended me. How is what you are doing any different? Asking if ok is sincere. You arent like this normally.

    Forums are a dying breed and this one is no exception. By all means, let him speed up the process for S2. :biglaugh:

    I'm glad that the last two weeks have been going good for you. You deserve it.

    Being a smart ass has never been a punishable offense in this forum.

    Hardly the king but it is good to be me.

    Forums aren't dying, only poorly run ones are. It's up to everyone to find ways to make RC2 more entertaining and informative.

    The comparison is not an unreasonable one, though. Your multiple "<<<<<<<<<" posts are no less distracting, inflammatory, or superfluous than MM's "guarantee" threads were. The only difference seems to be that there is nobody with forum authority telling you to stop.

    I disagree but I will delete the posts and apologize.

    I'm sorry for the <<<<<<<< posts. The premise of the original post that I was mocking didn't make sense with it so I decided to have some fun with it.

    Yes they are. How many people post on this forum actively? 15 or 20? Out of how many Blazer fans? This is the official forum of the Blazers and we have like 20 active posters.
