    I think their lotto history is MUCH worse than their record last season.

    15 of 23 years, that's hard to fathom.

    Fez you drop those numbers like they're factual truths.

    Just wanted to double check your work: they are.

    When your draft lotto history is that of the Wolves, you beg to overpay players. You have to. Continuing to blow picks isn't going to get you out of the lotto.

    I'd be for that trade!

    Have your people call their people for our people and make it happen! If we get Durant we won't need Batum anymore.

    15 of 23 years in the lotto, but looking at some of their pinpointed locations (farms, honest to goodnes, FARMS!), I'm not surprised.

    Yeah, passing on Brandon Roy because of his knees, drafting Randy Foye, and flipping him for Ricky Rubio worked out so terrible.

    We still have Rubio.

    You're still paying Brandon Roy.

    am I??? Damn that sucks... good thing he isnt counting towards the cap. Call me when Rubio has a season close to Roy's Rookie season, let alone All Star seasons.

    "He [Ndiaye] said he wanted to go into the free agent market and do a deal with somebody else and put pressure on us to match or do a sign and trade and that’s his prerogative. And look, Nic has never said a bad word about Portland. Some of the issues he had with being here no longer exist, so I don’t think that’s a problem."
