I know it's blasphemy but I almost want to lose games if it means we make big decisions. But I've been wanting to blow this thing up a few years now. When you know it's time it's probably time

Not blasphemous at all.

This team is mediocre and there is no more denying it. Mediocrity is the worst course as the options to improve are more limited.

Pull the plug on this trash.

All we need is some reliable veterans off the bench instead of this G league BS.

That and a new coaching staff.

And trade Simons for an upgrade at the 3 or 4.

Ok, we need a few things but blowing it up isn’t necessary. Idk why people are in such a hurry to watch us win 10 games a year for the next 4 years, that sucks.

cause dames value will no go up with time, but down, same goes for grant, nurk, gp2 & hart, but also cause sharpe is 19 yo and if you plan to tank, you should do it now, so that we have young players at the same timeline

we would be better of keeping simons a year or two while tanking, his numbers would improve a lot and so would his value, then you can trade him... but im not sure ownership has interest in tanking, my guess is they will bet on simons & sharpe leading the franchise once dame is done, ant will be 27 or 28 yo, sharpe will be 23 or 24 yo

Awesome half for Portland! I don't want to get my hopes up too high yet, though. :lol:

Fun when you're hitting 3's. And Paytons defense is sooo nice to see

I thought they kind of blew the team up last year? There is only a handful of guys left from the start of last season... Lillard, Simon's, Nurkic, and Little. I'd be willing to trade 3 of those 4, but Lillard is not going anywhere. That should be pretty clear by now.
