    I don't want to wait 3 more years for a big man to develop!!!! Move LA's ass to center and let's roll!

    Drummond 3 years away? He should be able to step in immediately and be a top 10 defensive big man. His offense will take time. But then again, MKG is very similar. Will be a top 10 wing defender potentially right away, but offense isn't there.

    It could be that a team they are talking to with a vet wants #4?

    T-Rob is your guy.

    IMO he's the most NBA ready in this draft.

    Oden's offense was far from polished when we drafted him. Don't sleep on Drummond because his post moves are raw. Especially when we aren't exactly in "win now" mode anyways.

    There has to be a reason, if this is all true, why the Blazers want to leapfrog the Kings.

    Haven't we learned to stay away from big men in the draft. I don't give a shit how we acquire one, just don't do it thru the draft!

    I disagree.

    If you have the chance to grab a future star like T-Rob you do it and run.

    Trying *really* hard to be optimistic - maybe he already knows the Blazers will take him if he falls to 6th, but he has dreams of going even higher.

    Could say the same about PGs.

    2011- Nolan
    2010- Armon
    2009- Patty
    2008- Bayless
    2007- Koponen
    2006- Sergio
    2005- Jack
    2004- Telfair

    You'd think we'd stop trying after a while.

    I consider a PF different then a center. I'm all for Robinson.

    I actually liked the games of Jack, Sergio, Bayless and Patty. Better then anything we have now.

    I'm with U, I think if we trade up like the Cle deal that was mentioned I think we are going after Drummond, U don't do that for beal or any of these other guys, even TRob IMO

    I have no idea if this is true, but was just told by an online friend that the blazers are looking to acquire the 4th, but not trade up. Blazers want 4 and 6 and are tring to package later picks and Wes. Don't put stock in this, just passing it along.

    Don't do this to these nerds! They will flip out if you are joking. You have to tell us why your "source" has credibility.

    No credibility that matters. But has not claimed stuff like this before.

    Why would you believe him? I'm not doubting you, just curious. Just wondering if he is a real insider or somebody just messing with you.

    Just like MM's "source"........ I honestly don't think he has one, I think he just loves messing with the guys.
