    I have never seen so many talented kids as I did last night. It might be the single worst draft to miss out on in recent history.

    Agree mediocre man. Figures the blazers likely won't have a pick. That kid Parker may be the #1 pick. Nasty.

    Great draft class, sucks to miss out on it but I like the direction of the team regardless of the fact we wont be able to try and cash our chips in on one of these uber talented kids. We would have to trade Lillard/Batum/LMA to attempt to get into the top 5 so i'm okay where we are.

    The opportunity to get a lotto pick would need to include Leonard, Claver and probably Freeland. I just don't think Olshey will want to go that far. I'm fine with the state of our team. There are some studs coming out in this draft, but will we be realistically contending for the top 5? I doubt it.

    Let's just hope the teams that draft them will be incompetent in building a squad around these guys, and they don't impede our playoff runs in the near future

    You think we can get a lotto pick with Leonar_, Claver and Freeland?

    Yes. Around the 7-10th pick.

    It looks like not only do we not have a 2nd rounder for next year, we don't have a 2nd rounder for FIVE years:

    Your crazy mags. Noone who has a pick in this draft will give up a lottery pick. I doubt CJ/leonard could get us the seventh pick in the draft.
