    Bones desevers some appreciation around here.
    The kid is continually bringing ideas and knowledge to the forum.
    New players to look at for the team, trade scenarios and ideas on how to improve play.

    Yes sometimes it can become overwhelming and even i skip over some of them due to lack of time to analyze and dissect his thoughts and ideas.

    Bones gets alot of shit around here and yet continues to do his thing.
    I, for one, appreciate all the scenarios he brings up. Whether tangible or not. Whether i think they will work or not.

    Keep it up Bones and dont let the few naysayers change what you keep bringing to the table. Just keep it about the team and the game and dont let the trolls lead you down the verbal warfare path. Stand above and take the high road and just keep bringing your scenarios.

    If you like you can use this thread to provide your many ideas on how to improve the team. Maybe that will shut up some of the homers who cant handle any discussion about how to improve the team. And this is coming from a homer. :)

    Thanks @BonesJones for all of your research and insite. Some of us here DO appreciate it.

    My only comment is that some posters need to learn....and the rest of us need to remember....the old adage, “It’s not WHAT you say, it’s HOW you say it.” That said, we all have our cranky days.......

    With the evolution of social media, i think we are all still learning this, because how you may say it in person may be fine. Say it the same way here and it could be taken wrong.
    So some people who are great conversationalists in person need to retool for the internet because of the lack of body language and what not.

    Thats a large learning curve for many of us. Lol

    I like Bones' honkin' huge trade and draft threads and appreciate his participation here. He does get a lot of shit, but he dishes out plenty of it himself. He's a "plus" poster for sure though.

    Good dude and I don't know why some give him shit for his takes on the Blazers play at times when he is just a passionate fan. He knows the game. Only 21 and he has called me out in constructive ways on the forum as well as defended me and for that is worth the appreciation alone. I think Bones has a bright future

    Bones is a good dude who adds a lot to the forum. I'm a subscriber to his YouTube. He always has well thought out, intelligent, logical takes.

    I look forward to dominating in the 3 on 3! B ready to run that pick and pop.

    Son, do not let others speak for you. Be unique, as I created you to be an individual, not a copy or clone. Stand up and stand tall and roar your voice in a firm, steady, yet calm manner and people will follow. You have the soul of a leader.

    With my cat of 13 years dying in the past couple days and from the way it's been around here I was thinking about taking a break from this place.. I've been pretty down. This helped.
