    A veteran big man off the bench. Freeland and Robinson have performed admirably, but Robinson is too raw and Freeland is too limited.

    Preferably a guy with some playoff experience. That's the missing piece. Like Juwan Howard a few years ago. That kind of guy. Who's out there?

    Freeland has played great, and Robinson has his ups and downs. It's important to get him minutes. It's the only way he'll continue to develop. I don't think he's really hurt us, so I'm not worried about it.

    I know, Mags. Just adding fuel from the other thread. Too bad Przybilla's done. He would've been a solid vet to have around.

    Well, this thread is going nowhere.

    Sam Smith of Bulls.com
    10th in the West. Trail Blazers. Record last season: 33-49. Missed playoffs. Key additions: R. Lopez, Mo Williams, Dorell Wright, C.J. McCollum.
    Perhaps another season saying they should be a playoff team, which may finally push LaMarcus Aldridge out. But probably not at least until trade deadline or more likely after the season. They’ve got some real talent in Damian Lillard with Nicholas Batum. But if they think Robin Lopez is the answer to their decades long center problems, they better get used to seeing someone move like Greg Oden after surgery.


    Discuss. lol

    Agree, a vet big man (4/5) would really be helpful come playoff time. If not, hope T-Rob and Freeland develop very quickly.

    I wish I had thought of this.


    You need to step up your game if you want to enjoy this forum. You simply need to learn that you can't say literally anything remotely negative about the team, or you get attacked. The Mods don't seem to give a flying fuck about it, so it's best to to shut up and let the lemmings praise some obscure writer from South Dakota because he owns a Chevy TrailBlazer, or bash Chad Ford because his last name is Ford and not Chevy, which has a TrailBlazer.

    Saying we need a vet big translates to Olshey is clueless and our roster is horrible

    Who is playing a victim card?


    And I did a little English and grammar research last night. Seems if you complain about someone using a victim card, you in turn are playing a victim.


    It's damn cold here in Huston too. high of 41 today....WTF?
