    I think this is pretty close to reality - depending, of course, on what else happens. But as things currently stand. I could see OKC going #3, and I could see SAS anywhere from #3-#7. MIN could be better than us, but it's MIN so I won't believe it until I see it.

    It's official: the Blazers have no balls. None. They could have put together a much better package for a one year rental of PG13. Now every single team in the NW Division got better and the Blazers stood pat. Fuck this.

    Ya'll delusional, Blazers finish in bottom 4 playoff spots in the west the next two years, Lillard will be on his way out. It's happening everywhere. These guys want to play for winners.

    Also, let me be a friend and help you realize reality:

    We don't have anything. We have crabbe and vonleh, and we aren't giving picks. It's a rental. We don't have anything good for a rental.

    Oh this just keeps getting better for Nurk. Dude's going to dominate the league this year. He'll be a legend in Portland.

    This. You can't wait out these other teams. Your stars will demand out if you aren't in contention. The clock is ticking...

    Butler goes West. George goes West.

    It's really easy for people who don't look for a way to hate the team for their own unrealistic expectations to see it.

    Na, they're not unrealisitic. Swing for the fences, you only have a couple of years with Dame/CJ. Oladipo's contract is atrocious, and sabonis is an OK piece. We def should have made a better offer

    The KAT don't want NONE of THE NURK and Butler can't guard CJ.

    Not.

    Swayed.
