    What will I miss?

    I will miss definitely miss Blazer fans obsessively fighting with everyone after the best player on the team has asked for a trade.

    i feel like this franchise is trying to turn Lillard into the trade CJ McCollum movement. Lillard IS NOT McCollum. CJ is a tough go go gadget role player, not an iconic NBA All-everything All-Star.

    Feeding the narrative "do what's best for the team". Blazer fans across the state are eating it up with a spoon, and engaging in hostile rhetoric towards possibility the greatest Blazer of all time.

    For a city that is among nationwide leaders in amount of hippies per capita, seeing Portland turn into a rock throwing Antifa riot because Lillard asked for a trade, is disheartening to this OG Blazers fan.

    Won't miss:
    Agree with others - won't miss the iso ball and lack of ball movement

    Anticipating:
    Determining if Billups can actually coach - I feel like he was somewhat hamstrung with Dame and Dame doing Dame-stuff, not Billups-ball. With you energetic talent, will we see a totally different style of game and will it be successful? Curious to know.

    Last year's summer league team was fun to watch, maybe that's what we can hope for once we play to coach system
