Keep dreaming then. Those are exactly the type of players that end up with the 15th roster spot. It's not exclusive to Portland.
Yeah I'm an idiot. I mean ideally we wouldn't see any of those guys except in garbage time but I still believe in Layman, somewhat. Giving up on a guy after one season is premature imo.
He was the 47th pick...and interestingly when I went to prove how unfruitful the 47th pick has been historically, I uncovered quite the opposite: Gerald Wilkins, Paul Milsap (!), Vernon Maxwell, Mo Williams, former Blazer Alvin Williams, Billy Ray Bates, etc....so I stand corrected.
I'm delighted that Anthony isn't a Blazer. The dude is an overpaid, aging, me-first player with a history of conflict and losing. The Thunder can be the team that has to deal with him and hope that he treats the game more like he did in the Olympics than he has during his NBA career.
