  3. 11-13 (getting them to .500)

  4. 14+ (really starting to move up the standings)

    There should be an actual Undefeated 20-0! None of this paltry 14+ stuff. Aim High!

    How about we let the next 10 days happen then watch what happens the next 10-15 games after that.
    Then look at what the team is doing and revisit this question.
    I totally agree with you in the current state this team might as well look for a better draft pick. I'm just not sold this team will not make a solid move and then be a more complete team.

    That tank stuff was outright horrible. I saw Keljin Blevins stop a pop a 17 footer that came up 8 feet short. At least mediocre ball with Lillard outbursts is watchable. The team posting Trendon Watford propaganda after every game was making me go nuts.

    My bad....I have this issue of living in reality and should realize there is no place for that on a chat board.

    I have put myself in timeout for an undisclosed amount of time.

    But we got Sharpe because of that. Getting VW or Scoot is better than 7 seed, IMO.

    Lakers beat Knicks tonight. They would have beat Boston too, but the refs totally cheated. L.A. seems to be gearing up for their playoff run, and the Blazers are one of the teams standing in their path.

    I believe the refs blew 4 calls at the end of that Lakers Celtics game. 3 were in favo of the Lakers, so...

    yeah, and on the play that got all the media attention, it looked like lebron took 4 steps before he was fouled

    And 3 trips before that Tatum carried the ball twice on one procession.
