    It's Mt Rushmore. Not Mt Cushmore.

    Mt Rushmore would be for Shawn Kemp

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    My guess is the artist wanted to celebrate as many periods of Blazers history as possible. Walton: '70s, Drexler: '80s/'90s, 'Sheed: '00s, Lillard: current.

    Seems like as good an approach as any.

    Would really have to start with Petrie though...I agree with UCD on that one...it is a solid list though...I think we need a 10 player Mt Rushmore

    If the Rip City Mt Rushmore has Greg Oden, then it must also have:
    - Mychal Thompson
    - Bill Walton
    - LaRue Martin

    How about Mt. Crushmore. Something made of sandstone instead of granite: Walton, Bowie, Oden, Roy :(

    For those who don't think Lillard has been here long enough, keep in mind that Petrie was only a Blazer for 6 seaons. Dame already has more career assists and rebounds that Petrie and will pass him in points by the all star break.

    Lillard's career scoring average through 5 seasons is 22.4 ppg. Petrie's through 6 seasons was 21.8 ppg. Close, but Lillard kills Petrie in all advanced stats.

    Lillard:
    Career PER = 20.2
    Career TS% = .565
    Career WS = 45.4
    Career WS/48 = .152
    Career VORP = 18.7

    Petrie:
    Career PER = 15.8
    Career TS% = .502
    Career WS = 26.1
    Career WS/48 = .075
    Career VORP = 0.3

    IMHO, Lillard already deserves a place ahead of Petrie. Yes, Petrie was the first player we ever drafted. Big deal. He never once led us to the post season, let alone the 2nd round.

    Mine:
    Walton, Drexler, Lillard, Dr. Jack

    If it was players only, I'd take Luke in place of Dr. Jack.
