    The Blazers have the 33rd pick in the draft and could get CDR in the 2nd round.

    They could still walk out of this draft with Bayless, Arthur, CDR.

    WOW. The Blazers are just.. WOW.

    I'd be happy with trading Lopez for the 31st pick to get CDR.

    Why do you want to drop a potential Tim Duncan for ?

    Potential Tim Duncan?

    Wtf? Where do you get that from? Lopez is nothing close to Tim Duncan. That's pathetic to even think he could become anything close to Tim Duncan.

    Wow. I don't even know how to respond to this post. You know nothing about Brook Lopez, and should stop hyping him about being the next Tim Duncan.

    Thorn has to get another 2nd round pick and get both Chalmers and CDR.

    Thankfully Jordan is gone.
    CDR or Bill Walker if they last? We need swingmen badly.
    Thornkiki buy a pick, get em both.

    I highly doubt CDR is gonna be there at 40. I'd be suprised if he makes it past this pick.

    What is it that you dislike about this guy ? He's a solid post passing, strong in the block, has worked on his defensive game, made big shots in the tourney, What is it that you don't like ! Would you like the bust that the Knicks took # 6 or an overrated SG in Eric Gordon ? What is it ! and Bayless is nowhere near a franchise player, Brook Lopez fell in this draft because he was raw in defense, this offseason he's made it a priority to improve his D and shot blocking, what is amazing is he fell from potential top 5 to #10 a steal in that spot and a big that has a very, very good shooting touch, between him and Yi the floor is going to be stretched out on offense.

    Brook Lopez dropped because he sucks. He shot like 45%, which is pathetic for a big man in college. His defense is overhyped, his offense is overhyped, and Bayless is far better than Lopez.

    You know, if Thorn actually took Bayless then they could have worked out a deal with the Blazers where they got some of these late picks and got guys like Chalmers, CDR, etc. Instead, they took Brook Lopez. What a disappointing value at the 10th pick. A role playing center. They could have got that later in the draft + other assets.
