In that they are minimum deal guys, sure. Every team has them. Now hopefully we don't have another incompetent coach like Stotts giving them playing time over other guys that deserve it.
Do we have a SF right now that can effectively shoot the 3 better than Snell? I think most teams want Little included in any trade. I can see the need for Snell.
I've enjoyed the team for all 45 years...enjoyed them this season too..I don't meltdown when they don't win a ring year after year...I wouldn't be a fan if I didn't enjoy the Blazers. We've had contending teams over those 45 years...we made the WCF in the west just two years ago with a one armed Kanter as a center...all that with out multiple allstars on the roster...that was fun...now with a rookie coach I think it'll take more than one season to get back there but I hope they surprise me.
There are 1o teams of 30 that have won championships over the last 40 plus years? and we are ONE Its about TV contracts and fan forums that feed the NBA beast thats a marketing machine.
