    High praise, indeed.

    Can't wait until camp begins!

    Interesting.

    This on the heels of Lillard's pre-draft workout being the best Blazers' workout since Durant. Anyone see a trend?

    That he will win many scoring titles, but no championships?

    He's obviously a Blazer homer with rose colored glasses.

    Hey, if Lillard takes us to the Finals, and we lose, I'd be okay with that.

    Better than what we have going on right now.

    Just finished summer league wrap-up. Based on that, Blazers and Rockets won this NBA Draft. Mavs underrated too. Link shortly.

    Congrats to Lillian and Selby. Neither of them had a bad game, both were consistent (though Lillard had a bad half). I think the awarders got in right.

    Exactly.

    I hope Lillard gets some scoring titles, but I prefer to stay in the lottery. I mean, being in the lottery sounds so cool. And hey, what if we win the lotto?? We're #1! We're #1!

    Exactly. Look how much more fun summer league was for us than say the Lakers or Heat?

    Yeah. I mean, how good did NO feel winning the lotto? What could top winning the lotto?

    Winning a title, proving once again Reese Bobby is brilliant

    I can't believe none of us semi-old guys thought about that one. Zeke's game was a lot like what I've seen from Lillard, except that Zeke was a more accomplished playmaker at this stage. Then again, Thomas also played with real players at Indiana in college, instead of with a bunch of slow set-shooters at Weber State.

    Yep. I am easily old enough to have thought of Thomas, and failed the forum
