Wide median, 3-4 traffic lanes and a wide sidewalk followed by parking lots in some areas. It was a lot of people. I felt bad for the cruise ship passengers who came at the wrong time on the wrong day. It was a long walk to find a cab, an expensive wait in slow traffic. PEACE.

Good Lord...
I knew the "Next KG" stuff was shit, but did the T-Wolves have ANY coaching back in the day?
He's legit. 6'9 who can score, and one of the rare Euros who defends and doesn't flop.

Yeah, I think Flip was pretty good.
But, really, on top of being trash, Ebi came to a team that was winning 50 games a year and in his rookie year had the best record in the West. When was he gonna play?

In my mind, Flip laughed at this. And then called Adelman, so they could laugh about it together.
Grant probably barely got out the name Tristan Thompson before he started laughing.

I think Thompson could progress to become a player in this league, but yeah that package sucks. Shitty #1 pick + Dion Waiters? lol.

Apparently Darko Milicic is retiring.
Feel bad for the guy honestly. Was never given a true chance and will go down as one of the biggest if not the biggest draft busts in sports history.

Yeah but blazers were going for that rape... I don't believe they have that many options for a first so maybe he goes to the Knicks regardless but the idea of trading a first to get a guy you had already drafted in the second is WTF.

He was given a ton of chances. Orlando, Memphis, Minnesota all gave him plenty of opportunity, he was just awful and didn't like playing basketball.
And he stole like $50 million during his career. I feel nothing.

Was given plenty of chances and made millions of dollars
The number 2 pick has a lot of bust in it but doesn't get the bust label like the number 1 pick
Draft sucks
He was definitely a bust but I do think part of it is that he was an 18 year old kid moving to a foreign country and Larry Brown was his first coach
That probably fucked his career more deeply than I can imagine
That doesn't sound like a Chris Grant move at all.
Kyrie, Love, and Varejao isn't any more of a winning team than Kyrie, Waiters, Thompson, and Varejao

I'm still shocked the Blazers turned down the deal..
I was just thinking this. Re-up with Noel. You got a nice inside-outside game with Lillard, Batum, and Noel (if he develops any offense). While he develops next year you tank, get a decent pick in a good draft.
Noel covers up Lillards so-so defense and its a win-win. 1st and the 19th? Was that real? Damn.

The Cavs hate Shabazz and would probably not even pick him in the second round.
Chad Ford puts too much focus on character aspects to avoid admitting players he previously hyped up as super skilled or super athletic are actually not skilled or athletic. McLemore and Len have issues with passiveness, but they can't score much mostly because their skill level is pretty poor.
The "Oladipo's worst case scenario is a better Tony Allen" comments are also insane. Allen is as about good as you can possibly be defensively at that size and Oladipo still has some issues defensively that could keep him from that level.

Miami will pick up that Team option since it's cheap so more wario/mario. Shard says he'll resign since he's a bum and wants another bench ring. Ray will resign most likely. IDK about Birdman. Juwan will prolly get a job within the heat.
Might have to amnesty mike miller or something though.

Sup fellow loserbro. Are you as pessimistic about your team's upcoming season right now as I am, given the current makeup of the Clips squad?
I like Love but that would be one of the worst defensive teams ever and would rely on attracting free agents which I am not confident in at all.

We don't even have a coach. Half the team can be gone soon.
I have no clue what we are even doing....
Thursday needs to get here so I can at least get some news.
So I can't even be pessimistic yet.
No Plumlee, MCW or Adams and I'll be fine.
so I expect us to take MCW at 11, trade back in for Plumlee. and then hire Larry Brown.

I want the draft to get here so that we'll have some actual news to discuss, no more wading through bs.

Why doesn't Doc want Big Baby? He's available!
Would be happy to shed Afflalo but a future first better be protected like crazy.

I think the Blazers would trade LMA for that deal.
