    Oh jeezis. I completely forgot about Hibbert. We dodged a scud missile on that one.

    We could probably fit Chandler Parsons at shooting guard on our Dodged-a-bullet team. I've never like Anthony, but I talked myself into liking him as a 3rd option this last summer. Should have trusted my gut.

    Or is it a “scrub” missile?

    Looking back, it's interesting how few guards spring to mind.

    We could have drafted Kendall Marshall instead of Lillard.

    Evan Turner wasn't a bad signing if you looked at the guys we missed out on.

    I can’t think of a PG for this team because honestly we signed them all.

    Aaron Afflalo at shooting guard. Okay, so he wasn't a totally dodged bullet, but at least Olshey's self-inflicted gun shot wound wasn't mortal. I mean, there was the expectation that Afflalo would help the Blazers in the 2015 playoffs and then re-up the next summer. Thankfully, he took his extraordinary talents elsewhere, with less than stellar stints for the Knicks and Kings, and is now averaging 3.3 ppg in 13 minutes off of the Magic's bench. Olshey stepped in some dog crap with that one, but at least scraped it off on someone else's front porch.

    Did we almost trade for Barron Davis once?

    I don’t think so; maybe he was going to be part of the Camby deal? But I don’t remember Davis ever being asked for BY Portland.

    Id suggest a Most Regrettable Point Guard thread, to see if we can figure out whether Nolan Smith, Taurean Green, or Rumeal Robinson is the winner.

    Why don't you just say BeetleJuice three times you dumb shit. God how I hate Felton.

    Did I once say it was always wrong to hate? Well, gotta make an exception for Felton. While we're at it, let's also make an exception for Kobe Bryant.

    Come on, Chris, you know I didn't mean it about you. Let's call it poetic license, 'cause that covers a lot of territory.
