    As stated last week, Portland still trying to contend. Unless that's changed, expect a lot of stories like this.

    I'd like to believe our front office isn't this retarded.

    Unless you mean contend for a playoff spot?

    Still dumb. What's the value they see in that? They want to watch us get shit on by Golden State?

    Actually it's probably because of the money... Smh.

    High enough to get one of those supposed 6-8 elite players in the draft.

    What was the point of this? It'd range at least 3 firsts, Okafor, and Harkless for Indiana to consider.

    Do you really think this is enough value for Paul George?

    Probably not, but hey. I'd say switch Crabbe to the pacers and am aminu to the 76ers but they'd say fuck off...probably would anyway.

    If we keep Nurk, Dame and CJ I'd let them have whatever they want for Paul George......it's Nate coaching...he wants defense...like Chief and Ed Davis are Nate type guys. AC, Ed, Chief, Meyers.....I'd trade them all for PG

    They probably want Chief and Ed for a 1st and a future 2nd.

    It's not dumb. Our window with dame and CJ is the next four or so years. Unless we're getting a stupid rental, I'm all in on trying to actually improve the team through veteran players instead of waiting for a maybe that would take years to develop anyway.

    What ever happened to rookies that had immediate impact? Robinson, Duncan, LeBron, Melo, Wade, Griffin, and Lillard? Are there any guys like that in this draft?

    They are all pretty young. Of the top 13 projected players......11 of them are freshmen and the other 2 are international players.
    I can't see them making an immediate impact. You are looking at year 3 for them to be really good IMO
