    You realize that some of that shit is said out of excitement and reactionary?

    Baldwin is legit. Less legit than Curry though. And he wasn't on his way out. So what're you saying?

    43,000+ with probably 42,000 of those spent complaining about others. FOH.

    See I think Baldwin ‘might’ have a higher ceiling than Curry. Curry’s career has been highlighted by injuries and Baldwins still really young so I think its hard to get a good gauge on either player.
    I know it was just one game, with one player trying to earn a spot on an NBA roster but that Houston game, Baldwin played defense just incredibly and didnt force bad shots on the other end. If he could sustain that energy then wow he could really help the Blazers.

    I think they’re pretty different players and I am interested to see how the guard minutes work out.

    You should go back through the archives and quote excerpts from all 42,000. That would teach him a thing or two!

    It’s ok I don’t take you seriously, you don’t have to convince me. I do it for laughs.

    Somebody's salty. You like to dish it out, but man, you sure don't like it when someone throws a little lighthearted shade in your direction. Lighten up Lucy!

    Because me asking you how many breaks Neil has given you is real serious. Is it based in truth?

    You're the one who spends your day digging through the archives trying to make other posters look bad. Seems like mine was the post that hit a little too close to home.

    Damn, if you have to work that hard to laugh, then either you have a very poor sense of humor, or you don't have a funny enough friend group, if it exists... I question that because of the enjoyment you get out of trying to annoy other people.

    I think were getting pretty close to attacking the poster not the posts here, and I know some of its in jest, but we maybe should steer closer to training camp talk?

    The CJ picture is right after Ant's on blazers.com....kind of looks like CJ is staring down Ant going "Shit...he's going to replace me soon" haha

    That sinking feeling when you suddenly realize you're expendable...

    Also points to the fact that CJ isn't quite as good as his reputation among Blazers fans

    Im sure this has been addressed but I'm not going to look (so just answer yes or no people).

    Can the team keep 17 players under contract? 15 on the big roster, 2 on "2 way" contracts?

    Yes.
    Right now Portland has 15 guaranteed contacts with 3 camp invites. I'm assuming 2 of the 3 camp invites will get offered 2way contracts before the season
