    If it's a fantasy you must somehow include Kate Upton!

    You actually did very well. I could not have done it. I had to look it up.

    Do what I do... don't spend too much time on any one sport. When it became trendy to start hating baseball I just switched to sports in no random order. Hell, sometimes I watch cricket and find it interesting.

    Bingo. He hasn't had a roster that was supposed to get out of the first round since Aldridge left.

    Last year wasn't good in the playoffs, but it's the first real playoff letdown we've had... And not many people picked the Blazers to get the 3 seed at the start of last season.

    It's been a tough situation. We should have traded Aldridge a year before he left. But since then I feel like management and coaching have done really well..

    Pretty much my sentiment also. 20/20 hind sight has me trading Aldridge also. But i must admit i was in the crowd that wanted to have him here and didn't think he should have been traded because i believed what he was saying.

    I thought he was leaving and didn't want to risk it. He had a lot of value after we beat Houston in the playoffs.

    But I understood where you were coming from.

    I was at the Dallas game when Wes went down. I watched Aldridge completely change all in about 5 mins. In my opinion he was gone from that game on.

    I thought he was waiting for an excuse to leave.

    That's why my opinion was "sign the extension the year before or you will not be here to see free agency".

    That's just not a risk we can afford to take here in Portland.

    So why didnt we learn our lesson with davis? Oh and next up is aminu?

    They should have been traded. They were replaceable and not vital to the continued success of the rest of thier respective final season. Even if for a second round pick, which we surely could have got for either, Right?

    The more i look at the path over the last few years, this is a tragedy.
    hindsite is 20/20 but repeat offences are grounds for major scrutiny.

    Kinda hedging on over to management and not coaching. Sorry about that.

    You guys led me astray!!

    No offense, but those players are a dime a dozen. They aren't even in the same ballpark as Aldridge. Completely different discussion.
