    We did actually get a 1st. But it was last years. Lot of hops on this team when you add Keon Johnson and his 48" vertical

    That's a pretty damn big picture. So big, it can't even be conceived.

    Are we allergic to acquiring players between 6'8-6'11"? Why do we hate true 4's so much?

    This came down because Chauncey wants Simons at 2 next year and figures Winslow & Johnson will offset RoCo.
    You know it's not a surprise with Chauncey being so close to the clippers coach.
    You would of thought we could have done way better at least a 2 for 1 for a scoring 3/4.

    Another Theory:
    Joe Cronin REALLY hates the Lakers, gifting quality players to their crosstown rivals.

    I’m shocked you are trying to justify what might be the worst trade Portland has made in the last 20 years

    So this trade happened because Billups wanted Bledsoe? Because he certainly didn't coach Keon or Winslow
