    there is a LOT of catagories on there and not one has any Blazer on it. Stotts got an outside looking in vote for best offensive coach.

    Apparently they still think the Thunder are better than us..... even though they completely missed the playoffs two years ago without Durant.

    And also..... Kyrie Irving is NOT better than Damian Lillard.

    Which player is the best leader?
    1. LeBron James, Cleveland – 57.1%
    2. Chris Paul, L.A. Clippers – 14.3%
    3. Stephen Curry, Golden State – 10.7%
    Draymond Green, Golden State – 10.7%
    Also receiving votes: Tim Duncan; Dwyane Wade, Chicago
    Last year: LeBron James – 44.6%

    This is completely ridiculous. I don't think these people even know what a leader is. And Tim Duncan isn't even in the league anymore!

    Lebron was easily the best leader last season, not a shock they voted for him.

    If you think Neil Olshey doesn't know the best way to motivate his team is to see them snubbed, you don't know Neil Olshey. I bet he didn't vote for a single Blazer at anything. :ghoti:

    Sounds like faith among his henchmen is waning.

    Also this one is a shot at us, we the people!

    Hope rip city is loud this season, make them regret putting those teams above us.

    Yes and Chris Paul helped lead Blake Griffin to a broken hand and a first round exit, so he is the clear #2.

    GMs don't know the game, which is why they don't post here.

    So should I whine, bitch and cry that no Blazer made a list, or congratulate the genius that is Neil Olshey by paying the other GMs off for leaving them off the lists they obviously deserved to dominate?

    6th place for best home-court advantage??? Seriously? That's crazy. Any poll online has us and GSW, as in the top 3. Idiots....

    You should do what you like, which is all you should do.

    Vanderpool and CJ got votes too. And Moda Center got some first place votes. Also, most fun team to watch.

    Oladipo. Also, they didn't have Kanter for full season that year. OKC will be good but if you look closely, more people picked Portland to finish third than OKC. OKC just got more fourth place votes than us.
