Must have been a troll positing that a mod has since deleted... At first I didn't understand why my pinhead pic got so much interest.
I like watching this team a lot more than rolling out an undersized non defensive backcourt and veteran team that had zero chance of winning a title. Lets the kids grow. Just wish they would move Grant already.
I do think it's time the young guys get the keys. If we're losing games, player progression is all I care to see in these games from the main young core. Hopefully we get a good pick and this is all for something, lol.
I agree with you but I don't know what the lol is about because I'm not laughing. Hopefully all of these losses are for something and hopefully we stop it with this ludicrous two timeline bullshit... no joke.
I'm a bandwagon fan when the team stopped caring. I actually care about my time. When they care again, I will. Much more important things with my time than watching boring basketball with no upside.
I hear you. I do. I feel like I put more effort into the game threads then the Blazers players do in the actual game. And, they get paid millions. Still, I watch every game no matter what. Just a diehard that way.
The highs wouldn’t be the same without the lows. Realistically this isn’t anything new for Blazer fans. I just hope we come back from this and emerge better than before. You don’t get to give up on today and cheer tomorrow.
as a person who has never seen a team they root for win a championship in their life time, you got to keep a sense of humor about these things. We can trade all the vets and lose out the rest of our games, end up with the worst record and end up with the 5th pick. People are to hyperbolic with their sports fandom, their is no 1 right way to do things because non of it is guaranteed no matter what you do. I have also had a lot of real life stuff happen this year so being doom and gloom about the Blazers being crappy for a couple seasons isn't something I'm stressing about.... specially after living through those Telfair years.
When have the Blazers tanked 4 years in a row? Fans can root however they want, if they want to give up this season and root when the teams better that's fine. If you want to root differently that's your choice.
Your post made me curious so I looked it up. We were a 50 win team, then .500 one season, then just two years with heavy losses (Telfair years) then had Brandon Roy ROY season the next year. So no we never had 4 years of tanking like we have right now, we only had 2. Worst of all is we can't see any light at the end of the tunnel yet, so no telling how long this might continue.
I'll tell you what, as a High Schooler at the time, it sure felt like a lot longer, lol. Got to go to a lot of super cheap games though so that was fun.
