    Hello darkness, my old friend
    From the CNN/SI article:

    "I can offer a new name to watch here as well: A source says the Blazers have eyes for Bosnian swingman Bojan Bogdanovic and could gamble on the impressive shooter in this spot."

    I, for one, will be EXTREMELY disapointed if we don't take a Euro

    I was being sarcastic, and I think he is a steal as well. Not sure he is what we need unless we deal Batum for something, but oh well.

    Reminds me a little of Rudy! I just watched your video link HCP, and he hit 2 of his first 8 three point attempts!

    Gotta grab this guy! Trade up if necessary!

    The New York Post recently reported that the Knicks would love to have Singleton, so he may not be there at #21.

    Just can't get excited for such a high pick. I know there are hidden gems out there, but big deal!

    Singleton is arguably the best defender in the draft

    Offensively.....not exactly great

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Brewer was a terrible choice in the top ten, but I'd be cool with using a pick in the 20s to pick up a defensive specialist who has some small chance of developing more offensive game.

    I guess they said the same thing about Nic and that turned out OK!

    Remember how before the lottery that year, most Blazer fans (on OLive anyway) were arguing between Jeff Green and Corey Brewer as possible draft picks for us? Wouldn't even dream of getting Oden/Durant.
