    At least not a little, they currently have the 4th and 11th picks, that's not bad considering... If they were a decent organization they should tank just a bit more, pick up Drummond with the 4th pick, and Sullinger with the 10th pick if they can move up.

    Felton/
    Crawford/Mathews
    Batum/
    L.Aldrige/Sullinger
    Drummond/Pryz

    Not bad, lots of talent

    Sullinger wont fall that far. I hav econcerns about his size but in what is called a DEEP draft I only see 5 potential stars: Davis, Kidd-Gilcrist, Barnes (maybe), Drummond (maybe) and Sullinger I think the first 2 I listed only sure things. Everyone else listed or after those 5 are suspect imho ...

    We're definitely in tank mode. Hopefully the ping pong balls come up for us.

    I don't think Sullinger will pan out at the next level, maybe a decent bench role player. I just don't think his advantages in college translate well to the NBA.

    To me, Portland needs to draft a PG with their second lottery pick. If Kendall Marshall still declares, and they're in a position to draft him, I'd get him and let Felton walk.

    Portland doesn't tank; they simply draft and play (which takes care of the first part).

    I read New Jersey's pick is top 3 protected. New Jersey prob won't overtake Washington / NOLA for the 3rd worst record but if they move up into the top 3 with the lottery Portland is screwed.

    That is correct. If the pick is top 3 it moves to next year unprotected.
