Psycho T is a UFA!!!!

You know, I'm not advocating this in the slightest, but if there was space enough to sign Redick and Psycho T I might, in the words of Wookie, asplode.
too many white guys on the team. I think we'd be fined.

Nolan Smith isn't coming here, he wants a fresh start and Olshey said he ain't bringing him back. #ripcity #blazers

That's from the exit interviews. Things change during free agency.

RT @ESPNSteinLine Hearing Spurs and Tiago Splitter have ramped up talks and are making progress toward deal terms
 
Why the fuck would we want him if wants to stay in Portland anyway?

I'm not saying I'd want him. I'm saying pinwheel is saying that because that's what was said in the exit interviews.

If Nolan still doesn't have a team and we still need a third Pg at the end of free agency Its not outlandish to think it could happen.

He's on the short list of players I would most like to punch in the face. What need to we have for him now, with TRob here?
 
because, while I really like the promise of TRob, all Psycho T does is rebound, play tough on both ends of the floor (picks, taking charges), is a pretty dang good team defender, and gets so many foul shots (at 76%) per real shot that even though he shoots 43% from the field, his TrueShooting % is the same as LMA (53%).

Now, where does he fit in in the LMA/Robinson/Freeland/Leonard/Withey big man rotation? that's another matter. I'm just saying, if you want to talk about "scrap", "D", "toughness", "rebounding", "no ego"--he's your man. And now available.

Word is teams that were pursuing restricted free agent big man appear to be dropping off in anticipation of Spurs & Splitter coming to terms

San Antonio is finalizing a five year, $45 million contract extension for center Tiago Splitter, league sources tell Y! Sports.

our best wouldn't be good enough for that.

With threat of a Portland offer sheet lingering, Spurs, Splitter working out details of an agreement today, sources tell Y!
 
I think this is a Hibbert situation:

SAS: "Portland, tell Splitter what your best will be."
POR: "x,y,z"
SAS: "OK. Splitter, we're going to do that. Now, Portland, please don't offer him a sheet so that we can sign other people first, and then get to Splitter."
POR: "Sure."

So what do we get in return?
 
Jeez sounds like we are actually getting worse.... Losing Hickson and Maynor. Robinson is obviously a project that two teams passed on.
 
Spitter gone... Blazers better move their ass

Considering how quiet we apparently are, I'm guessing we are waiting for Dwight to make his move, and the dominoes will fall for us soon after.
 
Adrian Wojnarowski ‏@WojYahooNBA 21s
Portland had the space to offer a four-year, $36M offer sheet on Splitter.

I think youre right Brian
 
Splitter isn't worth $9M, nor is he the kind of center Olshey covets
 
We also get the privelege of not overpaying Splitter for four years.
