    At any rate, this thread was about the Blazers' "incomparable" talent, with you listing how high the players on the Blazers' roster were drafted as evidence of this "talent."

    My first post offered the roster of the Chicago Bulls and where their players were drafted. Wouldn't you say the Bulls roster has "comparable" talent based on where they were collectively drafted? I would.

    Pretty much means this thread is wrong.
    Your "position" is that you consider the Blazers a doughnut team until Oden plays a game. You said as much. I was responding to the following statement by you...

    I said it wasn't about my position.

    I also started a new paragraph and wrote, "At any rate." Meaning it was another point, an additional point, a different point. I mentioned my other point because when I listed the Bulls roster, you didn't respond or even acknowledge that the Bulls' roster had "comparable" talent based on where their players were drafted. The Bulls' roster does have comparable talent to Portland's roster. That's my point.

    That makes your thread wrong.

    No it doesn't. The average draft position of the Blazers' lottery players is 6.1. The average draft position of the Bulls' lottery players is 7.1. Besides that, anyone can see that their talent is not comparable.

    Top 9 players for Blazers. Top 10 players for Bulls.

    Take the top 10 players for Bulls to make it fair. That makes the average position for the Bulls' top 9 players is 6.2.

    Comparable.

    And, if it wasn't about draft position and you can just see that the Bulls' roster isn't comparable, why is the first post about when the Blazers players were selected in their drafts?

    Okay JamStone, I'll accept that you believe the Bulls' talent is comparable to the Blazers'.

    It's not about my belief. What don't you get?

    Your thread was about how the Blazers had "incomparable talent" and used their draft positions as your point in proving it. I provide a roster that has "comparable" draft positions with the players on their roster and you make it about my position or my belief.

    It's using your logic to disprove your contention.

    So many lottery picks, wow, awesome.

    Who will they select with the 2009, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 15 lottery picks?

    Oh, the thrill of waiting draft day to arrive, only one night at the year, but what a night!

    The current Blazers team will be better. Our first order of business will be to knock the Lakers off the top spot in the West.
