    Happy New Years guys.. there’s a reason I don’t post much.

    I enjoy the tanking. But remember this. This is where the true fans will show up. WE WILL BE FINE.

    Stay strong. We should have done this sooner like I told ya.

    @SlyPokerDog have a safe and happy new year thanks for being patient with me. Go blazers

    Agreed it's Dame's worst season and still he would've been twice as good as any guard on that 04-05 roster.

    It's over?

    Jesus christ, the team is a shell of it's normal self, and it's poorly constructed in the first place. Dame can still take the team places, they just actually, you know, gotta put talent around him.

    Not saying they can easily do that, but I'm not sure anyone in the league could carry this pile of shit roster to wins at this point. Put some decent talent around Damian, a balanced roster, and it'd be different.

    With this roster? Yeah, it's "over". Thanks to Olsheys keen ability to judge talent and what makes a good team roster, this years team is absolute shit.

    Curry is older, LeBron is older, Durant is older, Harden is older, Westbrook is older, Klay Thompson is older and coming off of two major injuries. They have teams that actually build talent around them, and weird, their teams are doing good (well, the Lakers are still crappy).

    Dame has one season where he's struggling (tho he's had a good stretch recently) and all the sudden he's taken the team as far as he can.

    swear to god this place is scatterbrained at times.

    Crazy that Bazemore is getting scrub minutes for a sub .500 Laker team but was good enough to start half the games for us two years ago when people were claiming the roster was plenty talented enough to make a deep playoff run.

    One thing you gotta say for Elleby. He is a fighter and blazers need somebody with some fight. Even Little seems to be letting his offensive slump affect his energy.

    I mean this is probably the best. In the world of pro sports it’s either be competitive or suck real bad. Middle ground is where you don’t wanna be.

    I think Elleby will dog his way into being a Wes Mathews type player if he can shoot....he's a good rebounder and can stay in front of his man
