    Free Agent Throw the MLE at Bobby Portis?

    Well taxpayer MLE is better than what he's getting with the Bucks. He had 15 million from the Knicks for the one year. I can't imagine he goes for 5.9 MIL but I'd take him on that deal for 3-4 years if it was an option. I wouldn't say he burst onto the scene either, he's been productive in the...

    Free Agent Throw the MLE at Bobby Portis?

    If we can keep Powell and swap CJ for a switchable forward like any of those three, I think it makes sense. I figured that MLE was around 6 but when I googled it looked like it was 9 for last year, so I'm probably wrong in that regards.

    Free Agent Throw the MLE at Bobby Portis?

    After his playoff performance and because he's already won a championship, I imagine that Portis declines his player option for next year. He's only 26 and his Per-36 minutes look good. He can hit the 3 and is mobile enough defensively, could be a starting forward for us. I feel a Jae Crowder...

    OFFICIAL AROUND THE NBA THREAD- February 2021

    If we get lucky, maybe. We get healthy and some other teams have an injury to a major part of their team, like when Durant went down. Can easily see Blazers getting a middle seed and getting through the 4-5 matchup, but then yeah it would need to be like LBJ going down, and then Embiid or something.

    Blazers center injury thread

    Do we have one extra roster spot? There isn't anyone that's too appealing to pickup. I can see someone like Skal Labissiere if we can get him from the G-League.

    I assumed it happened when he fell and hit the ground.

    2020 Free Agency Thread

    Any thoughts on picking up JJ Barea as that backup PG once Dallas cuts him? https://thesmokingcuban.com/2020/11/22/mavericks-sign-jj-barea/

    Game Thread PLAYOFFS: ROUND 2, GAME 1: BLAZERS @ NUGGETS - APRIL 29, 2019 - MONDAY, 7:30 PM, TNT

    Logging in for the first time in years...wtf, so many bad calls this game. That 5 point swing earlier where CJ should have had an and-1 but they called in on the ground and then he was called for a foul on a clean strip...Jokic can travel...whatever. Let's just hope we can steal the next one.

    Exclusive 2015 Draft Day

    Well not surprising for the Spurs, but figured they could use some wing depth in case they don't want to pay Green and for when Manu is done.

    I bet the Spurs take Hunter here

    Exclusive 2015 Draft Day

    If we lose LMA (seems likely), then we could be looking at next year's lineup of Lillard/McCollum/RHJ/Vonleh/Leonard as the future of the team.

    Exclusive 2015 Draft Day

    It had to be RHJ, we have pretty much no SF on the roster and he's the highest upside. Hope he learns to shoot.

    Denver is going to buy out TRob

    Stacey Augmon I believe was part of the trade and did that. I didn't realize that Big Z was the trade that caused the rule to change though.
