    Well, you're probably in the minority here. Which is fine. Just like it's fine for us to be glad that GSW lost...

    Yep a injury to Steph like LBJ had and the result could be the same.

    Go get AD. The West is ours if we can pull that off.

    That's why I qualified it with Steph's health. If LeBron stays healthy for at least 70 games, the Lakers probably make the playoffs, but that front office was a mess, too. And LeBron is at a point where his body is beginning to break down, too.

    The Warriors weren't just a great team. They were a dominant team. They found ways to win games they had no business winning, including three against us. They won without KD. For them to fall the whole way out of the playoffs, IMO, a lot would have to go wrong, more than one could reasonably expect.

    I'm preparing myself to be very annoyed when the Blazers are involved in helping facilitate a trade of AD to Boston or LAL and the Blazers get nothing all that helpful out of it..

    I wouldn’t be too shocked... he has a championship team around him right now, why go to LA (either team)? The Clippers don’t have the dogs yet and the Lakers are a fucking dumpster fire currently.

    He only partially tore it. Then while jumping backstage he tore it.

    It's the Golden State way.

    Seriously, why would we help if we get nothing helpful out of it?

    You're being salty about something that won't happen, lol.

    Maybe, but if it does happen at least I'll have the salt prepared.

    I know you’re joking but you can still move on a torn ACL, it doesn’t feel great and you don’t have any explosion but you ultimately can still move/jump/jog. It’s just gonna hurt like hell.

    But you've basically already admitted that you'd be salty no matter what we got if it wasn't AD. I'm just curious why you are preparing us to not benefit from it if it happens? Why would we help them if it doesn't also help us?

    Western Conference is up for grab next year. C’mon Neil, make that bold move and improve this team.

    I already answered that. If we're involved in a trade that LAL lands AD there is no way the Blazers improved as much in that trade as LAL did.
