    Minnetanka doesn't have their own pick. Adelman just isn't a very good coach, unless he's trying to put the Blazers lower than the Tankerwolves' pick, which goes to New Orleans.

    I wish we had Adelman. They have a lot of injuries.

    May as well have Adelman, because the Blazers aren't making the playoffs, either.

    I had a classic S2 meltdown when we drafted Smith over Faried. I lobbied for the Manimal for a good two months before the draft and even more so on draft day.

    It was a total McMillan pick. And I blame Buchanan for going with it.

    Says who? Seems like McMillan sure didn't play Smith much, if he was a "Nate" guy.

    Nate is also responsible for signing Crawford, trading for Felton and trading away Wallace and Camby. All Nate moves. :)

    In fact if the this years draft doesn't work out, still close enough in time to blame Nate.

    No, but he was responsible for the drafting of Tareun Green and his 3 or 4 wins he contributed to us...

    Absolutely correct. Babbitt was too, since he was rated as top shooter in the draft and McMillan was crying for shooters.

    Then he wouldn't play the rookies as usual. He ruined young players by steering them from their talents into thinking about defense too much.

    This is supposedly what Bill Simmons said in a recent article

    Good thing they chose Wallace, who is ironically probably more broken down than Pierce.
