    I know a lot of people think a player drafted after 30 doesn't bare much thought, but.... Patty Mills is a fantastic player. Put national bias aside (yes I am an Aussie) and the fact I have known Patty since he was playing under 12s in Canberra. This kid can flat out ball. He burnt Chris Paul repeatedly in Beijing and scored 20 on the Redeem team. He can be a spark of energy off the bench and his play making has been under rated by scouts that watched him on a St Marys squad where he was required to shoot more than pass. I hope Nate et al give him a chance to play.

    I agree completely about Patty Mills and I am also Australian but he is awesome!
    He is also very quick and agile. His on ball defence is exceptional and his lateral movement will help off the bench he is a great pick up at 50. GO BLAZERS
    I am a fan of 0.8 secs Brandon Roy and nothing but net

    He will get a chance to play his way in during summer league. Pooh Jeter isn't a great PG and is really there to just fill a roster spot. Mills will get a chance before Jeter will. I think you need to brace yourselves for disappointment though. If the Blazers continue to go after big name Free Agents, Mills will probably be playing in Australia this coming season for salary reasons.
    I am a fan of #20 in the rafters, but #1 in our hearts and prayers...The Enforcer

    At the max maybe 30 people will comment on that  petition. 0% chance Olshey will look at the thread and trade Batum to please those people.

    Im not against trading it if it is for the right price

    I really really think trading our pick is the wisest and most effective thing to do. This years draft is a poor standard. Ohsley needs to get in a real powerhouse starting defensive centre. It''s all so interesting and I am very excited to see wha...

  7. Damian Lillard's entourage beat up some brothers.

    Started by RipCity 14 on 05/20/13 at 2:27 PM

    If the thread said Babbitt beat some brothers you all would be expecting a hate crime. I do not see why this is a big deal. Police beat their wives daily and we do not have a thread about that and that is a real issue plaguing society.

  8. Keep Batum!

    Let Olshey bet on Batum and when he is unemployed then maybe he will release he messed up.
