    Neil probably got this edict (saving $$$) from his boss!

    I still think we should have traded Meyers for Luka Doncic.

    I'd be surprised if we didn't buy him out or trade him again.

    Watch the play again, what Ariza did on that play wasn't that bad, really.

    We still had to give picks to get an expiring off our hands. What a fucking joke.

    I liked baze with his energy but sadly his offense was terrible this year and he made lots of stupid fouls. Toliver came alive last couple of games, but Ariza is a much better defender

    Wenyen is actually a decent prospect. Those picks they gave up are in four, five years, honestly who gives a shit we’ll all be dead by then.

    No clue what picks we included but if it's this year's 2nd and our 2022 2nd then we just gave up a pick between 35-45 and a pick in the potential "double draft" for Ariza?

    Doesn't make any sense.

    I think the Blazers waive Swanigan on this trade

    For what it's worth, Ariza will actually be decent on this team I think.

    Worst part of deal no one is talking about is that it kills any chance to sign a decent player in free agency... the cap room we would have had letting Bazemore and Whiteside walk has been greatly diminished... this was worse then losing both players for nothing IMO

    It's 1.8 million for Ariza. We had no cap anyways for a max player.
