    I should hope so. He already has a year in the league under his belt.

    So, by not playing, Rubio is helping his team?

    No. He didn't

    He also shared PG duties heavily with Ridnour. Didn't even handle the task by himself like Lillard is.

    Dude tore his ACL after playing like 40 straight games and you're saying he can't stay healthy?

    Whatever, this is a stupid argument at this stage of the season. Lillard is a good player, we're lucky to have him, and he's putting up really good numbers for a rookie. I don't care about Kyrie Irving or Rubio because neither of those players are on our team.

    You know who you sound like? All the Oden fans that were in denial. It only took three straight MF surgeries before they finally figured out that he couldn't stay healthy.

    But if he was playing they would probably have one or 2 losses

    Sure.

    I have an idea: to make it fair, every point guard in the NBA should have to play two games for the Blazers, and we can compare them then. :ghoti:

    No. They weren't. They were for one sec before that but you can't say that because it was only 40 games. Need a full season against all the teams to make playoffs. If you want to go by 40 games, then Felton took us to the playoffs too, lol.

    You're comparing a 7 footer who was always injured in college to a point guard who didn't have any problems in the pros going back to when he was 14. Yikes that's a reach.

    Your logic is similar to thinking a guy that scores two points in 1 minutr could score 80 points in 40 Minutes if they just gave him a chance. Total fail. Anything could have happened and the twolves easily could have missed the playoffs with a healthy rubio. That 36% fg shooting and PER of less than 15 is awesome!

    He'll never get a full season because Rubio can't stay healthy :devilwink:

    With Ricky they were absolutely a playoff team
    Go look at the twolves record when he started for them
    They were a lot better last year than us this year

    So how long before you start posting pictures of Oden's dong?

    I like how you came up with "OSUBlazers" that was a nice touch. Really convincing.

    Yes. They were also a much better roster. We have three great players, two good players, two promising projects, and 8 mouth-breathers. Minnesota's roster had half the mouth-breathers we have now, and that does make a difference.
