You have a bad reputation.

You have a bad reputation.

Coming from you, that is a compliment

Today sure didn't pan out as advertised...

I know nothing, ever

You and Peter Vecsey! The difference is, you admit it.

What annoys me about it is he seems all too giddy to retweet anything and everything negative said about the Blazers. He never made a peep(tweet) on Falk's comments about what a classy thing we did with Hibbert. Nothing.

That is exactly what bothered me about him too.

To be fair, he was probably the first to report Nic doesn't want to come back and wants to be a T-pup. But he has turned bitter on his own fans and takes pleasure reporting bad news and doesn't seem to try or even care to report the positive news.

I never saw what Falk tweeted about Hibbert. What did he say?

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes
Spoke with the legendary sports agent David Falk regarding Roy Hibbert, Neil Olshey, and he brought up...wait for it........Nicolas Batum.

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes
Falk on Hibbert and Blazers: "Neil handled our situation in a professional manner. He presented a great opportunity for Roy (Hibbert)."

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes
Falk: "Was classy of Neil to allow us to withdraw from the RFA process once it became apparent Indiana would match. Didn't have to do that."

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes
Falk: "I have great regard for the way the ‪#Blazers‬ conduct business. This is something I will remember for a very long time."

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes
Falk: "That Nicolas Batum soap opera is ridiculous. I wish Batum's agent would get the message."

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes
Falk: "Whatever behavior is agent (Bouna) displays, effects his client's relationship with the fans and his teammates."

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes
Falk: "It's a business, take a qualifier you don't want to be there. I dont believe in all that stuff out in the public."

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes
Falk: "Roy Hibbert is only 25 yrs old & you never know what will happen in the future. What the ‪#Blazers‬ did is something I'll never forget"

Chris Haynes ‏@ChrisBHaynes
Just for the record, I didn't ask David Falk anything about Nicolas Batum. He brought him up on his own.

Wow.... Falk is old school and well respected around the league. His opinion carries a lot of weight in my opinion.

I wish whatever is happening would happen - don't know about Nic, don't know about Felton/Thomas trade, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

And still waiting for the coach. Is someone trying to torture us poor fans?

Felton Thomas trade was brilliant

The Felton/Thomas trade is a done deal. It's Felton/Thomas for Jeffries/Gadzuric two Greek players that are currently under contract in Europe and some money.

Oh, is it official now? Olshey said last night it was not, and I haven't seen anything from the Blazers on it today

 

[The_Lillard_King]

I know you are high on the Blazers these days (don't quite understand, but glad), but brilliant? Man your standards have changed.

Nice to get something for Felton and too bad Thomas doesn't want to stay around and mentor this team (don't blame him) . . . but hopeful at best any of these players will help Blazers.

None are going to make the Blazer championship contenders, which used to be your standard for a good move.

Not sure, but once the Blazers match I think it limits Blazers ability to get a vet PG. Blazers will probably use the next three days to try and get a PG before matching Batum . . . at least I hope. So there probably will not be a rush to officially match Batum. Safe to assume Blazers will match or they would have gotten something for Batum.

Heck Rid and and two european players would have been brilliant by Olshey if they were just going to let Batum walk

Oh, I was just going off of what Quick tweeted late last night. Sure seems done.

They traded away a fat free agent PG, who was not going to return anyway, and a 40 year old center, who more than likely was never going to play this season

for

a 2nd round pick and two Euros that have first round talent, but taken in round two because of buyouts

To me that is a brilliant trade. We literally traded nothing for 3 pretty darn good assets

OK so the Blazers sold a second round pick this draft for money . . . basically gave away a "pretty darn good asset". . . how would you rate that move?

2nd round picks are what they are, long shots. Not saying this was a bad move because PR wise, no way blazers retain Felton. But my idea of a brilliant trade doesn't involve obtaining three second round picks . . . but maybe that is just me.

Will say I think you spin things more to the extreme, but I enjoy more the way you spin things with your "it's all good attitude"
