Sign and trade obviously and Nurk is gonna be expensive You're gaining salary and upside. I think Duren will pretty easily replace Nurk and has a MUCH higher ceiling. Sign and Trade is of course what we should do if at all possible. Send him to Boston or the Grizzlies maybe for one of their millions of defenders at the wing.
OKC is about to add Banchero to their young core and are getting better Houston is about to add Smith to a core with Green, and Wood. They are getting better. The Blazers are headed the other direction
Past #7 picks 21 - Kuminga 20 - K Hayes 19 - C White 18 - W Crater jr. 17 - L Markkanen 16 - J Murray 15 - E Mudiay 14 - J Randle 13 - B Mclemore 12- H Barnes
Okay. I can agree with that other than there being any kind of Game Changer at 7 in the next 2 years.
OKC has 1000000000000000000000000 picks, SGA and the #2 pick they look amazing right now compared to the 10 years of mediocrity Blazers. OKC's future is bright. Houston just started tanking and has a #3 pick this year. You didn't answer are you a Season Ticket Holder or do you have zero reason to be against the tank? Because it's one or the other if you have any sense of strategy which is why billion dollar teams do it and guys on the internet think it's a bad idea.
We'v got assets to make moves.... Should be a decent 3/4 at seven... Remember its at least a 3 year plan....
Having a pity party doesn't help anyone. The Blazers coaches and Joe are all out in Chicago for the Combine. There's gonna be a lot of really good players available at our pick. Maybe a guy who might be one of the best. I'm looking forward to the Draft. Go Blazers!
To the Anti-Tank folks. Look, guys who spend a few 1000 a year on Season Tickets I totally get the rage at tanking. Totally get it. Guys, who watch at home on illegal free streams? You should be pro-tanking. It clearly works which is why so many BILLIONS of dollars worth of teams have done it every year for decades now. Or maybe you know better than people paid millions to be experts right? LOL.
