Whose Timeline Should the Trail Blazers Follow?

The Portland Trail Blazers will enter the 2024-25 NBA regular season with a young, energetic roster. It’s not a complete team; there’s still more tinkering to do. But they’re as close to a unified core as they have been at any time since 2020, when Damian Lillard and CJ McCollum still ruled the court.

That’s not enough for some people, though. Like drill sergeants going over sheets with military precision, a subgroup of fans still want all the roster wrinkles out. This is evidenced by today’s Blazer’s Edge Mailbag question.

Hey Dave,

We talk a lot about players being the “wrong timeline” for our core young players.
