    Be clairvoyant, obviously. Olshey should have known 4 years ago that Giannis was going to develop into a superstar. Clearly everyone else saw it coming.

    So you hate lillard because of the media... Not actually the player. Thats absurd. Rethink that.

    Sorry I edited the reply...you are correct. I bring up CJ and i get laughed at, or told I have no clue....Well the eye never lies. It is my opinion they dont have to agree but when u belittle someone for it, just shows you are trying to be the big kid in the lunch room and take your ball and go home. I respect everyone's opinion I love Dame also I just think CJ is better that is it.

    Why are you taking it like I am saying "keep it rollin" has not clue? I know us as Blazer fans are all wanting a ring. I think CJ would be a better fit than Dame on a 3 star championship team is all...if that makes me an out cast so be it, it is my opinion. More upside, better at letting others get theirs, better overall shooter. Yes he needs to work on getting to line, turnovers, and defense.

    Please stop with this "great community guy", just stop, everyone.

    How in the world being a great community guy matters in a basketball related discussion?

    WE ARE A BASKETBALL TEAM, NOT AN HUMANITARIAN ORGANIZATION.

    With the Jail Blazers we nearly made the FINALS, with Lillard we're fighting for the 8th seed.

    I'm fucking tired of Lillard' shoes, Lillard' songs, Lillard' spechees, Lillard's commercials and all that stuff, i'm only interested in winning.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Hey, I'm with you on that, but that really doesn't get the Blazers any closer to getting their own Antetokounmpo or Curry.

    Gives them more space to make moves to bring guys. We are not getting FA to come here "PERIOD" so it has to be trade ( which they leave when contract is up) or draft and hope you can sign for long term.

    I just want a F - ING Ring that is all. 40 Years of BS. The city and fans deserve a ring.

    I actually don't have much of an issue with someone liking CJ better or thinking he is slightly better. They are pretty close in my view.

    That wasn't what your original post was about though. It was that we need two more top 20 players to compete. And guess what? We might. But they don't grow on trees and some 20 other teams also need two more top 20 guys to get a championship. It isn't easy to find 1 more top 20 guy let a alone two. Especially when a team like GS has 4 top 30 guys when other teams only have 1 top 30 guy (I think we have two at least so we are better off than many teams).

    It is good to vent. No problem with that. Of course we all want to win. Badly. So does fans of 26 other teams out there who aren't winning lately.

    This thread seems to be going in two directions, but I'll chime in on the local media. They seem really sensitive when anyone brings up even the idea of a trade. It's weird. Like why do they care so much? Probably has something to do with the leash Olshey has them all on.

    If you want the local media to agree with you you need to bring them VooDoo donuts.

    I invited Blazer Steve here from twitter. I will explain to him about the no personal insult rule and then tell about the pleasures he can have with your wife after his 1000th post.
