Seriously, why are you quoting me here? Nothing you quote me on remotely relates to what you're saying. STOMP
You literally were bitching about Neil blowing his opportunity to draft the greatest thing since sliced bread, then said Giannis was unknown to peons like you, then backed that up with another Olshey complaint. If his talents were so obvious, why did half the league whiff on him? sERIously whY r U quOtINg me… lmao dork post
Then quote me on what you want to discuss instead of something completely unrelated... try to make sense. My comments are from well over a month ago so you're reviving a dead end with zero context. And good grief, along with the above stupidity way to completely miss my point. It's not bitching about Olshey missing on Giannis, it's the idiotic narrative that Olshey did a "great" job in that draft. If we're using our super hindsight ability reviewing a GM's performance in a draft where he wiffed on selecting a generational talent and get a solid starter instead, sorry no A+ for Soapy. I'm sorry that you're so pathetic at this and then feel the need to lash out after embarrassing yourself STOMP
I’ve seen comments on Sharpe videos on YT saying “wish DET drafted this guy”. Sharpe would’ve been perfect for them, considering Cade is essentially their PG. Ivey was just the safest pick at that point. Now, they’re probably going to have to choose between the two in a few years. This is why taking swings in the mid lotto is huge when you have an established star. That’s also why if we land at #6, I’m hoping the #5 team plays it safe and drafts a guy like Jarace Walker so we draft a guy like Ausar Thompson.
Sharpe scored 30 points with seven assists and seven rebounds and became only the fourth teenager to score at least 30 points with at least seven rebounds and at least seven assists in a game. The other three players: LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Luka Doncic. https://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/...sharpe-joins-rare-company.html?outputType=amp
Ya, no way unless Wemby drops, and then it’s because of concerns. Even then if Dame is still on this team, I doubt we’d keep the first pick. This team is about to mortgage it’s sneaky young core
IF they get the #1 pick and trade it, they sure as fuck better get a guaranteed trilogy of titles. I'm not saying that Wemby is a guarantee (anything can happen), but trading the #1 pick under the guise of pleasing Dame/winning a title is short sighted and would (more than likely) blow up in their face. Trading the #1 pick would be such a short sighted Blazery thing to do.

I think we trade any pick that isn't 1. Or Dame is out. I just hope Cronin doesn't make it obvious to retain at least some leverage in negotiations
Some names I'd look out for in the trade market this summer: - KAT - Butler/Bam - Jaylen Brown - Bridges - DeRozan - Middleton - Jabari Smith - Paul George - Markannen Most would require the pick and maybe multiple players and depend on them flaming out if they're in the playoffs. Longshots yes, but not completely out of the realm of possibilities. I just wish we retained or obtained some tradeable contracts of guys who we won't subsequently have to replace in the starting lineup.
I think he offered the #7 last year and when they couldn't get who they wanted, they kept the pick. I think he will do the same this year. If he can't get a difference maker, will keep the pick and then Lillard will have to decide what he wants to do.
I know beggers can’t be choosers, but people doing a victory lap about the Blazers being wrong about Randle last summer should also consider KAT’s defense next to Dame. Being an interested defender should be a job requirement. (also, the Rockets would be stupid to trade Jabari…)
