the portland trailblazers
- Thread starter phil
- Start date
"First came 11, one of the Blazers’ numbers. Then nine, another Blazers number. Then 13, the third number in the Trail Blazers’ sequence. If the next number out of the hopper was 12, the number one pick in the draft would have once again belonged to Portland.
But it wasn’t meant to be. A ball with the number seven was removed, and the Chicago Bulls were awarded the first pick. The Blazers, just one number away from pulling off the biggest draft buster in the history of the lottery, ended with the 13th pick. "

damn, we'da been the most hated/loved/conspiracy-theory ridden team in the league had it been a 12 instead of a 7

i was just on oregonlive.com readin shit
yall hear what memphis offered us? LOL. our #13 and outlaw for mike miller.... woooooow...... after the lakers raping the trade for pau, the grizz offer some shit like this to us??? wtf?? lol.
brian wheeler said, more then 1 player from the blazers asked management to bring outlaw back next year.
would u trade outlaw if the right deal came?? personally, i wouldnt, just because the growth i saw in him this year, and when hes ON... oh boy, hes ON.. i remember outlaws first few years, i was like NOOOOOOO everytime he would shoot the ball cuz he was horrible at it, but now its like i want him to shoot more and be aggressive.
we def need a PG and im just waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaitin for a team to get PRRRRRRRRRRRRRITCH SLAPPED!!!!!!

I've always liked Outlaw, but in the right deal, he'd be gone. Fortunately, KP didn't think that was the right deal. I'm glad for that cause I've never liked Mike Miller. Plus they wanted #13 as a throw in and there would still have to be filler thrown in to make the deal work. So it would be Outlaw, #13, filler for Mike Miller. Thumbs down. Depending on who was available at #5 I might have to think about it if they threw their pick in it.
obviously doesnt mean shit but after the laker vs spurs game, charles barkley was talkin about how the spurs are gettin old, and other teams are startin to make some noise in the west. next year the lakers, jazz, and hornets will be the best, and then hes like "oh ya portland trail blazers are up there too"
somethin on the lines of that, but i just thought that was coo cuz people outside of oregon is startin to recognize our "potential"
