It's a good thing the 2021 draft is supposed to be good and that our pick is lottery protected.

Dame isn't missing the playoffs. Doubt him at your own risk.

I'm not not doubting Dame but with three starters down, if he misses any games due to minor
injuries, Portland is not making the playoffs.

As it stands; if Portland misses the playoffs, heads are going to roll. The off season turnover has to
start with NO and Stotts. New management and a new coaching staff might think about some changes
some of us think should have been done years ago for both Dame/CJ will be on the other side of 30.
