    Fantastic draft. Scoot is obvious, Murray can probably plug and play quite a few minutes for us at SF right off the bat.

  2. KiNG 3D

    I’d like to see Scoot thrive in a 6 man role with the Blazers. I think he could win 6MOY and ROY

  4. Sean McCartney

    This is the worst day I can remember as a blazers fan. Even worse than picking Ant while we had Dame and CJ

  5. Makkenji

    I couldn't be more excited about Joe's choices today, couldn't have done better myself.

  6. Lcacique

    For the love of God, let Dame go. Then this organization can suck for several years, get into the playoffs finally, and fail to secure talent to pair with Scoot and/or Shaedon and we can start the rebuild again in a decade.

  8. Jared Carrick

    Disappointed with Portland’s second first round pick at 23. They need a potential superstar forward who can handle the ball, shoot, drive the lane, defend, rebound etc. and OMax was that guy sitting there waiting for them and instead they pick a forward who is more of a statue, not great ball handling skills and not as good of a shooter as OMax (OMax shot over 50% from the field last season) and doesn’t have the explosive lane driving ability as OMax to blow by defenders.

    Here’s my best Trade for Portland

    All Trailblazer must do to be in for CHAMPIONSHIP
    ADD THESE TWO Individuals
    Trade with CHICAGO
    Best center
    Nikola Vucevic
    And Small Forward
    DeMar DeRozan

    Portland Offers to Chicago
    For 3rd? Will Eliminate what was owed to Chicago the RESTRICTED PORTLAND pick and Youssefe Nurc
    Maybe throw a draft pick or currently on the roaster on the bench!!!!
    PORTLAND TRAILBLAZERS
    Add these two individuals PTB you wii be close to Championship

    DeMar DeRozan
    Age 33
    Average Career 21+ ppg
    Rebound 4+
    Excellent Small Forward

    The best CENTER IN NBA IS
    Nikola Vucevic
    Portland Trailblazers you need this guy specially Damian
    Both players DO COMPLEMENT FROM THEIR STYLE OF PLAY!!!
    Excellent Foundation
    Age 32
    Basketball IQ

    Why are BLAZERS ALWAYS IN A BUILDING MODE? The same blazer team the beat Denver 3 years ago Denver only added Gordon from Orlando they became NBA champions of Denver Nuggets!!!! They have BOOKWORMS IN THE TRAIL BLAZERS FRONT OFFICE, ONLY STATISTIC ON PAPER LACK OF PLAYING KNOWLEDGE!!!! Very INCOMPETENT!!!! I know how to build A CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM SITTING IN MY LIVING ROOM, I KNOW HOW TO BRING CHAMPIONSHIP YOU REMEMBER DR. Jack Ramsey, he was hired 1975-76 won a Championship ever since then to keep building a team so close to nba championship maybe one player needed INSTEAD TEARING OR BREAKUP THE TEAM ALWYAS IN REBUILDING THAT IS WHY DAMIEN LILLARD IS TIERED OFF. WITHOUT BUILDING TEAM CHEMISTRY NO WIN . TO BUILDING TEAM CHEMISTRY NO WINY RESULT.
    YOU HAVE TO PLAY TOGETHER FOR QUITE A WHILE TO KNOW ONE ANOTHER STRENGTH AND WEAKNESSES OF EACH OTHER!!!
    All Trailblazers need is a back up Center and Strong ability of Power Forward from free agency and keep the draft pick!!!!
    Trailblazers are weak small forward and power forwards/ Center and keep the personnel you have!!!!!
    I always have a question about the FRONT OFFICE, PLAYER PERSONNEL DO THEY WANT TO WIN OR BE MEDIOCRE?
    At least they have Coach who has played!!!!! STOP YOUR NONSENSE TRADING OF DAMIAN!!! NO NBA PLAYER OR A TEAM WILL EVER HAVE THE MORAL VALUES!!! DAMIEN LLILARD IS THE MOST VALUABLE PLAYER NBA EVER SEEN!!!! VERY HIGH QUALITY INDIVIDUAL THE LEAGUE NBA SHOULD BE PROUD OF!!!! TRAILBLAZERS OFFICE
    I am available for player personnel and know how to pick players for championships!!!I AM A RETIRED SOCCER COACH, KNOWS BASKETBALL KNOWYS HOW TO READ BODIES MOVEMENT CAPABILITIES…….

    If Portland Trailblazer

    Yeah, Cronin has ZERO plans, we heard that today..he also said nothing on nothing and evaded, jus pure bs. He doesn't care if Lillard goes, which is insane cuz others go if he does..also, he ain't gonna build anything cuz he doesn't do his job, why would he build with scoot if he can't with lillard? hes jus pure garbage

  20. dell blackman

    They will keep all three rookies. If they want to liquidate their young players… they'll trade away Simons, Keon, Walker, and not keep Knox, Reddish, etc.

    Just because they pick and keep three rookies today from a loaded draft does not indicate that Cronin's intention to keep Dame and to build around him has been abandoned.
