    his career ended when he was 29 (bad hip IIRC). Irony is after passing on CP3 and Deron Williams because they already had Telfaire, the Blazers spent the next 6 seasons semi-desperately looking for their PGOTF until they drafted Dame

    that was at least the 2nd time they made that mistake. No to Jordan because they had Drexler....yikes!

    Talent doesn't equal leadership ability. LMA was a marshmallow and we got plenty of value out of him for years.

    Well... If the Blazers actually get the 6th pick and Holmgren is still on the board they probably should take him.

    It'll be like that Costner movie "Draft Day". Cronin will be calling up Kevin Pritchard asking him what he knows about Holmgren and why he's dropping, then he'll panic and trade out of the pick.

    Yeah I'm not a Chet Fan either but at 6 it might be a good move?

    Agree. I’d trade the pick also. No time for a greenhorn right now.

    In the sense that the top 14 picks are usually considered the lottery, yes. As far as the picks that you can win through the lottery drawing, no. That's picks 1-4.
