All Things Whiteside

So Woj can look like hes wrong? lol stop it now we're just desperate for hope. Whiteside was never coming here. Horford too. Deep down we all knew this. Now its not over, we still have a shot at Howard. Hes not that bad to me I think Dame can lead him to change. I've always said Lillard is a great leader. With this market we have no shot at the big names and Whiteside is too much of a big name.

Howard stock being so low right now I think we can get him. In fact we should show him we care by calling him first at 9:01pm tonight. Stop wasting our time with this Whiteside bs dream
That was the point of my post. You know deep down inside that wouldnt be true but those are are the type of things that desperation do
 
It's interesting that Howard is being talked about in 'less than max' offers like what Houston is throwing out there. @28M is a LOT even with the new cap. Add in the age, the passed team issues, etc, and I'm wondering if Portland would get him for a lower number since it is the 'years' he seems more interested in?

yea if those comments are true, it would be great to see a nice low contract over more years. would also make it easier to move if things turn for the worst

Well Bosh was more than leaning to HOU, he actually even agreed with them and then backed out the next day. So it maybe rare but happens.

Thursday 2:50 p.m. Whiteside update
With free agency starting at 12:01 a.m. tonight, Hassan Whiteside has scheduled meetings with the Dallas Mavericks and Portland Trail Blazers in the next 24 hours, and the Heat also very much remains in play for his services, according to someone with direct knowledge.

Whiteside has received interest from a bunch of teams, but to this point, he has agreed to meet with only two: Dallas and Portland.
 
Why is it that Dame was retweeting stuff about whiteside then? I feel like he did have discussions with Blazer players at least
 
I knew whiteside was too much of an idiot to seriously consider the blazers. Have fun in Dallas assturd.
 
To be fair Woj says his as 9:01 approaches his focus is on Miami and Dallas. He met with Miami today and is apparently meeting with Dallas at 9:01 tonight. Doesn't really imply anything past that we are assuming. We could be assuming correctly though.
 
Raymond Felton, Wes Mathews, Nic Batum, Hassan Whiteside and Dirk.....Kaleb Canales on the bench...it's almost like our short lockout season

It's the most efficient use of air travel..we're on the end of the line from Miami
 
When used in a comparison as was the case, is that incorrect? I'm a finance guy and language arts was never my strong suit. I'm legitimately asking.
Nothing better than him meeting with the Lakers, than with us....and choosing Portland. That would make him an immediate cult hero.

I see now. Yes, you are correct. Don't get too excited though, I have half a brain
 
Let it begin -- fans go from loving whiteside to name calling when it starts to look like things might not go the Blazers way. My advice to fans who want to get upset , disappointed etc by tweets and such thats fine but i think we need to stay classy and say -- oh well - wish (insert name ) luck and look forward and not back if let's say Whiteside picks the Mavs for example
 
What kind of meltdown would Cuban have if Whiteside said he was going to Dallas and then changed his mind and went to Portland or back to Miami? #DeAndreJordanesque

Nah I'll feel how I want to. Thanks though.
 
Just remember the phrase "now and then". Those two words are related in that something is either happening now or it happened then. Than is a comparison word.
 
He's nice but not that nice. He was in a room with Monroe too

He was in a room at a severe disadvantage because everyone knew LA was leaving. Our future looked very bleak last year. That's not the case right now.

with his childish history I could see him doing that actually, he would likely have a full snap chat story about it and every social media outlet would go nuts over it

And we still won't land anyone unless you count Aldrich as landing someone. I pray I'm wrong.
