Im not about to call him a bust. He’s young and needs time define himself. With that said, if he is a bust, note who drafted him. Joe Cronin a numbers guy. A capologist who is prob best suited in that role. So if he goes that direction, Joe prob shouldn’t be doing the drafting. When you are...

Im still underwhelmed. He can’t blow by his man. He can’t shoot. He gets blocked just about every time he goes to the rim. His passing ability has been oversold. He fouls with the best of them and keeps a mean warm seat. With that said, he’s just a baby. A 19 year old. He’s got a positive...

Well I’ll be, I still have access. You’re taking heat in here and maybe you should be but I’ll be honest. I am underwhelmed. You can look at a player and tell if he has it or not. I’m thinking in the mold of a Johnny Flynn. A nice player but hardly a star. Will wait and see. Good luck with this.

None of us have any idea of what he wants for this franchise or what's been worked out. If you have anything that suggests otherwise, please post it.

Where are some of you getting the info of what he really wanted for his franchise? Has something been posted online? I think it's possible that Jody keeps the teams together as a package and allows Chris McGowan to manage the franchises. To make it easier to manage it wouldn't surprise me to see...

It’s starting to make sense on why McGowan was named CEO for both organizations. I think he’s probably been fighting this for sometime and the news came out 2 weeks ago. I hope Vulcan/Jody takes the team and sells it to local group here in Portland led By Merrit Paulson. It wouldn’t surprise me...

What a devastating day. He’s been an owner for about as long as I have been a fan of the team. There are many good memories of this team and he is a key reason why there is. For many years we were spoiled as fans. It was only in the last few years that that changed and I think we are learning...

I can but I think if this owner faced this kind of reality it could cause him to sell. I’m sure he would like to at least win one championship before he dies or sells. It’s too bad he’s bought into and wasted 6 years of his life on this GM.

I wouldn’t fire Terry but an interesting name did come up today for another job and he has ties to this area. Ime Udoka would be intersting.

He’s got a book of scripts and talking points. Im sure we will hear most of them.

Yes Neil needs to go as well. He and his inability to do the job is holding this roster and team hostage. He’s been here 6 years too long. If he was going to show us something dazzling he would have done it by now. He maybe a problem but I wouldn’t fire the coach.

It was 25 years in that the owner and team decided that the Memorial Coliseum was out of date and it was time to upgrade. Were hitting that mark with the Moda Center. At what point does he get that itch that he needs a new venue and an upgrade? And will it be here or will it be built elsewhere?

When asking this question...you need to ask how much responsibility does the owner share in what or what is not going on. Is Neil working under a model that they both collaboratively put together 6 years ago? Is it a model that was used in the early to mid 80's that eventually led to a...

Coaching very well could be a problem. But I would start with the General Manager. I quit being high on Neil back in the summer of 2014. The man is all hot air no action. He has no creativity and again we are dealing with an imbalance problem on the roster. Last year it was wings, this year...

A good antidote for a great offense is a great defense. I haven’t really watched them much except for this evening but have been paying attention to the numbers through the preseason. They are showing they can be pretty special defensively. For the last couple years I have felt they had the...
