5 of the last 7 CB picks for 5-star John 'Juju' Smith are #Oregon including mine - Explain my change here (VIP) http://oregon
What a crazy ride this...
Mirotic & the CHA pick are where the REAL value is at for LA in a deal....
Having Boozer expire in 2015 with other contracts...has some value for POR...Having Deng expire next year, not so much....
Gibson, has some value b\c he could step in and help man the PF position with T-Rob
and...
Noah's contract expires 1 year after LA's....That guy will walk as soon as his contract is up.....Noah wants to win now (like Aldridge), not be stuck on a rebuilding team.....
I just don't see Noah coming back from CHI for LA...nor him being remotely happy here if he was....
Mirotic...
Yeah, that is why they should have dealt Leonard to New Orleans and kept Withey....Defense is what POR needs from thier Center.....not a guy chucking 3's in practice or in the game....
I think that these other "un-named" GM's who are protesting the Kirilenko signing, don't have a leg to stand on.....

and unless there is some sort of hard proof that Prokharov is paying Kirilenko under the...

I didn't say anything about the moves that he made in my post....I just was commenting on how Olshey loves to use jargon speak to bullshit\pump up the moves he made.....
Oh, and that he flat out was full of shit about the capspace comment....
Laugh it up all you want, but the Lakers chemistry was horrid last year and they had a terrible start...sometimes the subtraction of a player (and all the subsequent drama) can have a positive effect....not finals worthy, but making the playoffs? Yeah, I think it is possible....
Well I'll give him props for being a master of using jargon to bullshit fans\media....
Where Pritchard was but a novice, this guy is an expert...should keep him around a year or two longer than KP I suspect....
To illustrate (and I paraphrase here)
Really now?
