    I mean, they are young men, but more like Young Men's Basketball Association.

    Maybe because your expectations have changed. Weird?

    This team MIGHT win as many games as before the trades simply because they will play defense

    I understand his mindset. I agree they were the superior team and should have won but he just called Nurk (#16 pick), Simons (#24 pick) Dennis Smith (#9 pick), Ben McClemore (#7 pick), Justise Winslow (#10 pick) and a couple second round picks in Elleby and Greg Brown a bunch of YMCA players. Are they All Stars on the level of Lebron and Davis? No but these are not Rec league players. These are guys that have given their entire lives to the game and development of it.
    If i was the Blazers at this point i would play that video every chance I could get. Disrespect gets no worse than that. But then I'm much more competitive than most i guess?

    Sure but you missed a few first round picks that contributed.

    It's not going to get any easier if the team stays healthy with the addition of Josh Hart.

    I don't think I want Bron; he seemed to be really showing his age last night.

    He looks a lot faster on offense than on defense. But somehow his advanced defensive stats look really good.
