Seems fair. The Knicks, pathetic as they are, will definitely still exist next year.
Having a future is brighter than maybe not having a future.

Thats the way i feel too.We don't have any players that hae potential even close to dwight howard,nenad krstic,chris paul, or chris bosh.

Of course we aren't going to beat out NY...think # of potential voters. In fact Portland is probably equal to or smaller then all the other cities in which teams are mentioned.

hasoos · 04-19-2006, 06:53 PM

I don't think size of the city has anything to do with it...

Although you can click you heels together and tell yourself that over and over if you want!

Please take Krstic out of that sentence. He should not be utterered in the same breath as the rest of those young players. Yeah, he is alright...but people are way overhyping him.....Those other guys are fiery and will certainly be leaders of their teams. Krstic is soft.

AMEN. My thoughts exactly.

RPCity · 04-19-2006, 07:54 PM

That's pretty brutal. I know we're last place in the league....but has that much changed since the beginning of the season when we were being touted as the team with the best young talent in the league? I mean granted....Dwight Howard is a very special case.....and Chris Bosh is a virtual superstar at this point (at least considered by many to be).

I can't put too much stock in things like this though. Even "expert" opinions change with the wind. I'm curious as to how this stacks up against the actual on the court record of the teams?

Prunetang

you probably have not watched Nenad Krstic play more than a game this season to make that statement.
