Event 2024 NBA DRAFT - JUNE 26 & June 27 2024 - WEDNESDAY 5:30 PM PST & THURSDAY - 1 PM PST - ABC & ESPN

Wut? Are you serious? 2-time MVP Jokic? It doesn't matter how many didn't work out.

 

1. He fucking better be
2. I bet that "not all" includes Kolek.

 

A few years ago, I went looking for you at Eastern Oregon State and I was hollering for you!

All I saw was a rolling green field and young stocky students who look like farmers.

They stared at me because I wasn't driving a tractor. One chick looked pickuppable but I don't know agricultural science, so I felt inadequate to treat her to a sumptuous corn chowder restaurant.

 

The reports for about two weeks were that our front office wanted Clingan. We got him. We got Avdija who is 23 and extremely skilled on both ends even though he might not be elite at any one specific thing. I think we might see a trade or two of our core guys after the first couple days of free agency (likely Ant and/or Jerami). If we get rid of those two for young player, draft picks and maybe a an old vet then we should be able to let our team play as hard as they can the whole season and still end up with good lotto position and if we aren't constantly sitting guys the games should be fun to watch.

 

You got me. I've never had an Emmy, but I knew one in about 2nd grade.

 

Who’s going to Vegas for summer league?

 

Hello Emmy Lou........

 

All the 2nd rounders the Blazers didn't draft.

Too soon?

 

Funny how in a year when the women had arguably the most star studded draft ever we keep hearing how weak the men's draft is.

 

I hadn't thought of that. The most talented men turned transgender. Let's see whether this trend continues next draft.

 

Girls rule and boys drool

 

Anton Watson would’ve been a nice pick

 

I like everyone. If you've been here about 15 years, I know your weak spot to make fun of. If you're a right-wing pig, I still like and understand you. I might even be good for a hundred bucks if you need it.

Wizard Mentor is a good poster. I wasn't really hollering for you; would have been a good surprise to bump into you. Stayed at Travelodge both times I passed through. LaGrande is about as isolated as a town can be, of those on a freeway. The north is foggy for many miles. You drive down big cliffs through the mists of time to enter.

I'll go back to my treehouse now.

 

So now we would rather have a 6'1" PG over a 6.8" PG?

I get confused about all the things we like to bitch about.

 

As a Dad, while I entirely understand the appeal of wanting to play with your son, I'd actually kind of feel awful for putting my kid in the situation. This whole thing feels about glorifying LeBron rather than Bronny, and I just can't imagine doing that to my kid.

 

Without his dad, Bronny would never have made a team roster, so I see this as a positive, like taking your kid to work. Like, he can’t actually think he’s good enough to play in the NBA…. Right?

 

I would think so, yeah. Can you imagine giving your kid the ultimate imposter syndrome though? And having to fall short every day with that legacy staring you in the face? Honestly, I will be shocked if his time of the NBA doesn't end up being a rather traumatic experience for him. And for that sake, I hope he can actually develop into a viable NBA player, even as a twelfth-man type.

 

Oh definitely I wish him the best! I actually don’t have to imagine too hard; my father was an award winning fine artist who painted these amazing huge paintings that are in private collections and small museums. I haven’t done much with my life creatively; I certainly am not the artist my dad was. It weighs on me most days.

 

Gotta do it like Dame did..... sneak your family into practice and then hope the team doesn't notice and just starts paying them money.
