The Blazers have had a couple of the worst 1st picks in history, they passed on Durant for an injury prone guy that only played for a year or 2, also I believe they passed on MJ for Larue Martin, another dud. They just seem like a franchise that will never get it together.

On every dumb turnover I think “JFC Paul!” but then he continues to go all out to score over 30 and win the game for us. He gets hacked and abused on every drive but seems to have been getting more calls recently. It helps greatly that he’s such a reliable free-throw shooter.

Yes his turnovers have been overwhelming annoying.
From the eye they just seem like really stupid turnovers too, but I look the other way as long his ass keeps driving to the rim and and making shots!

I doubt the lakers even decide to pay shroeder the money he’s looking for this summer. Trez is gonna go for the money this time imo so he’s gone, Drummond they can’t afford and no way he takes the mle .

No need to worry we got this!
Clippers 2021 1st all our 2nds + Mann oturu bev rondo Luke’s ext.$
For Dame
Dame pg13 kawhi mook Zu
Reggie Patterson ibaka
We good lol
In all honesty, blazers need to blow it up, i can’t see them contending with any trade whether is a ton for dame to add with CJ
Or a trade where they get something for CJ . Blazers stuck in the mud imo
They can get a ton for lillard and CJ and by fire sale of the rest of the team if they do it correctly.
Whatever team can offer seven years of picks/swaps and young prospects you do it. (OkC model)
I’d personally trade him to a team like the Knicks, get barret quickly and seven years of picks . Tank and be ready to NOT screw up the building process around there next two stud prospects.

Just a minor edit: PG13 matched his personal season-high in turnovers. (He also had 7 in the last game in Philly on April 16). While his prolific scoring has been great, I prefer that he be the primary ball-handler less often. The offense, while usually no longer succumbing to it completely, veers toward a more stagnant isolationist one when he goes into hero-ball mode.

I’m not too worried about the Lakers – I feel like their asset cupboard is pretty much just as bare as ours at this point. Even assuming for a second that the “Lakers could’ve gotten Lowry but they refused to give up THT” story is true, it’d take a helluva lot more than THT to pry Dame outta Portland. I don’t see the Blazers giving up either of Dame or McCollum for THT, Schroeder, and a couple of 2nd rounders.

Yea, I’m expecting a big shakeup in Portland this offseason – though I feel like we’ve been saying that for years now…

I actually liked their trade for Powell, but I wasn’t on board w/ what they had to give up to get Covington last offseason. Neil’s got his work cut out for him this Summer (assuming he’s retained).

Since I’m from Portland and they were my team for decades and I still follow them I feel compelled to weigh in. Lucas is 100% spot on. Dame and CJs skills overlap too much. Powell is a logical precursor to moving CJ. Not sure they can pry Tobias away for him but they definitely need a dynamic wing. Maybe Levine? It will suck if the Lakers are able to pry Dame away ala Harden to Brooklyn. That’s my biggest concern in all of this.
