Dave,
In one of your earlier posts you said Damian Lillard was the only Blazer you'd guarantee continuing beyond 2015. Can you explain that more?
Bryce
Sure, but it's more of an interesting discussion topic--and a clue as to the current state of the team--than a firm prognostication. Obviously more than one current player will remain with the team beyond 2015. The point is, between talent, chemistry, contracts, and the nebulous road ahead we don't know who those players will be. That tells you something about where the Blazers are in the building process.
Since it is an interesting discussion topic, let's throw it open today. Here are my best guesses.
All But Guaranteed to Stay Regardless of Anything
Damian Lillard
Probably Staying, if Nothing Else Because of Rookie Contract Situation
C.J. McCollum, Thomas Robinson, Meyers Leonard
Contract Says "Stay" but Will Depend on Other Developments
Nicolas Batum
Just Not Sure or Worse
Everybody Else
You can use whatever category headings you wish. Share your best guesses below!
