    Barton strikes me as a gunner off the bench.

    ok I have to say I am in and out of view at this time, but I thought we gave Barton to NJ?

    Tyshawn Taylor went to NJ.

    edit: not NJ, Brooklyn.

    A couple, didn't mean to put Barton in there. I think he'll be solid, but I'm higher on EW.

    At any rate, I think Lillard will be very, very effective this year.

    Lillard - Going to be very, very impressive this year, IMO. Strong in the PnR, will pull doubles off of LMA.
    Wes - Decent
    Batum - Above average
    Aldridge - We already know.
    Meyers - Our fate lies here, with what we can or cannot sign here. If we get Hibbert, we could compete fairly soon IMO.

    LOL...

    How is it going to feel next year when HOU 3 picks of Lamb, White & Jones out perform Lillard and Leonard who were BOTH taken before them?

    INEPT organization...worst scouting staff in the NBA, plus the most meddlesome owner in professional sports since Al Davis = Fucking disaster....

    This draft strikes me as a needs-based draft, which is a good idea (I guess) for a team that is missing a few key pieces.

    The Blazers are a mess in terms of their talent level, and this draft is a bit like patching a couple holes in a ship that 2/3 under water.

    Wow. Disaster = this post. I don't love this, but it ain't as disastrous as you make it, Mixum.

    Hope you got a change of pants.

    Strikes me as a team trying to look at BPA and picking players that are almost as good as BPA due to needs.

    I'm not incredibly happy with our draft. But I'm willing to give these guys a shot to see what they do.

    I'm also not going to judge until we see what happens in free agency.
