    So this is what it feels like to be on the other side of a Pritch-slap.

    If all the injuries weren't bad enough we have to put up with this GARBAGE of a front office.

    This team is being ran by a bunch of amateurs.

    So does this mean you don't want Buchanan to get the "interim" label dropped? :grin:

    Ya, Paul sucks. I'd much rather have a Donald Sterling type owner.

    The one that made the Blazers into a 54-win team?

    I'll take that type of trade again.

    Hate to say it, but I've been trying to tell you this about the Blazer ownership group for years now.

    It's almost like Paul Allen intentionally sabotages himself when things get too successful. Must have something to do with his guilt over by a rich guy's best friend in the early days of MicroSoft?

    Yes. We wouldn't want to get out of the first round of the playoffs.

    Is Bert in the war room today? I find it hard to believe that he would be involved in draft-day dealings.

    Signings? I can see that. But the granular trade-swapping deals? Like I said: I find it hard to believe.

    This has been a catastrophe of a draft if the trades are going to happen as reported...

    I bet we get out of the first round next year with Felton. so it will be a success.

    You know it's a sad day when you envy David Kahn's draft day pull.

    I'm embarrassed to be a Blazer fan right now. It's one thing to get shorted on a trade, but to get shorted on a trade at the expense of a division rival is just too much.

    Sell the team, Paul. You're hurting the entire city.
