    Using the picks is not the best route to take. Look at the history

    I don't mind Canales, thought he did a decent job last year but was kind of hoping to get a big name coach.

    You'd better start wearing stripes, just in case, Hefe. I've heard they're slimming (verticle, NOT horizontal).

    PA continues to make the worst and weakest moves possible, despite all his public claims of wanting to win.

    It should be clear to all fans by now that he's not only a liar, he's a very bad liar.

    Seriously, how fucking hard is to to pick a fucking GM?

    I wonder if they realize the lack of a GM and their idiotic "GM search" is actually more detrimental than what Cho did to get canned.

    I just don't get it.

    I honestly think that the Blazers (Paul and Bert) are doing this to fuck with S2.

    You can't get the top-shelf poontang in PDX with some flat schlub running the show.

    Or maybe Denny has something to do with this to drive up the traffic on this dump!

    The 4th and 7th picks in 2006 yielded LMA and Brandon Roy after some trades. Has another team had a better lottery draft since the lottery was created?

    This must be some last-chance effort for PA to get somebody to buy the team in the next week or so.

    No coach, no GM, very few long-term contracts, rabid fanbase, two lottery picks...

    Hmm

    6 years later and the team still hasn't gotten out of the first round and has lottery picks again. I guess we can play bizarro NBA history and pretend it actually worked out.

    And Aldridge was the #2 pick in the draft. Like I said, we need to move up....keeping the picks has a low probabilty of success. I'm interested in winning, not having young youthful potential. I've said it several times, only way to be a contender is to build through high (top 3 lotto picks) or make blockbuster trades. I stand by that.
