    Dame is locked up for a long time. If we really do get a good player, they'll probably be good within the first 2 years. Dame is only 25, relax.

    Horford will either retire a Hawk or ring chase like David West.

    Realistically, our only hope is that some team needs to blow it up quickly and unload a ton of cap.

    Tell that to all the people that think Meyers is going to be a building block.

    This reminds me of the snake in T-Rob's locker during the playoffs in San Antonio in 2014. I thought the Spurs was supposed to be such a well-run organization.

    Their locker room has hot water and is snake free. Sounds like they're running just fine.

    Dwight Jeyens said Portland missing 44 shots tonight and only 4 offensive rebounds. That's horrible!

    We really shouldn't have expected anything different


    During a major rebuild you can try one of two things, one is load the team with veterans. We tried that with the Felton era and it was a disaster. Even so you’ll often get fast results, but typically there’s limited potential.

    The other is to build around a bunch of REALLY young but talented players. It’s more long term and it results in some really bad years but there’s a lot more potential. As frustrating and disappointing as this is it’s the right thing to do in the long term. I'm excited for the lottery to pair Dame with HOPEFULLY a franchise changer if we do our homework really good and get lucky we can find that..

    Jason Quick say's Noah Vonleh shows more market value in the last 2 games.

    Quick also said he sees Lillard's thumbnail starting to grow back a little. Sounds like Damian is Wolverine or something. Does he have a mutant healing factor?

    First it was a snake. Now the old cold water trick. What's next? Liniment on the towels?
