Is anyone who's not stupid actually planning on learning anything during this press conference? If so, they will be fine points, not really big news.

“Look guys if an internal AND external Investigation by us and multiple other organizations/companies, no charges, no conviction, no DNA, no criminal record, no pattern of questionable behavior, nothing but positive references,.....if none of that is enough, then kindly eat shit and have a wonderful day.”

i can't believe that she's getting away with saying that shit.

Sure let's drag the victim through the mud by rehashing to the worldwide media all of the stuff that she probably tried to bury. Let's go through the gory details and not only violate any potential NDAs but also potentially remove her anonymity.

For what? To make this lady feel better about the Billups hire and try to absolve him of any wrongdoing?

What is her end goal here? Because it definitely is not supporting women or the victim.

fuck her. She’s a cornball

I'm hoping to learn a lot. I'm hoping to be able to glean if these guys put this story from Chauncey's past to bed and then move onto basketball matters. I want to learn just how far into detail the team and Chauncey are willing to go. I want to learn what Chauncey's approaches are to our biggest problems (defense in general and Dame getting trapped). So I think this could be really educational... and hopefully the spectacle is only for the first few minutes or for the few minutes after someone breaks the ice on the assault allegation.

putting to bed: won't know for a long time.
detail: they're not willing
approach: will emphasize passing

you are a "with it" poster, you know this shit.

Neil has been talking up Billups for YEARS - it was always going to be Billups. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if Billups becoming an assistant last year was Neil's idea.

Where is Due diligence?

 

[B-Roy]

Where is Due diligence?

That's a good one, there's too many Neil-ism's to fit in one board.

 

[wizenheimer]

where is the blurry picture of Billups at PDX?

 

[wizenheimer]

Where is Due diligence?

no 'move the needle' either

ENGLAND 2 GERMANY 0!!! The Curse Is Lifted!!! I don't have to care about this Blazers mess for a while!

 

[Chris Craig]

Guarantee he will come up with a fancier term for investigation.

Ha maybe

It'll be something like...

Can you talk about Chauncey's allegations?

Listen, we looked at this with a high level of scrutiny. We undertook an extensive investigation into the matter. We sat down and had the conversation with Chauncey about it. Everything that came back cleared him.

Can you comment on the backlash?

Look, obviously no matter what decision you make there are going to be people who don't agree with it. There is a lot of overreaction. People don't know the facts. Where were all these same people a month ago who wanted sweeping changes? They were the ones going crazy about wanting changes.

 

[B-Roy]

Early bets on how Neil Olshey will address Chauncey's accusations tomorrow?

"Look, we're not at liberty to discuss details, but what I will tell you is this. We take accusations of that nature very seriously and we looked into the veracity of those allegations and found that there was no truth to the way people believe things worked out. And I know that we are not the only organization to have done so. Other organizations within the NBA and outside the NBA have done their own investigations and their conclusions matched ours. I have known Chauncey for over 10 years, he's been an upstanding citizen, has had multiple positions within the league and outside of it, is highly respected among his peers, has a beautiful wife and three kids and would not have the kind of support he does if people truly believed he was capable of the things that some people are saying he is. And one more thing is that I can guarantee you guys that Jody Allen would not have signed off on our decision had she believed that he was actually the type of person that did such a thing."

This would be such a Neil thing to say.

I'm going to see how close I got it.

I actually hope he is really combative and white knights big time for Dame and Billups — for those questions.

For legitimate questions, I hope he is different than we usually see.

Chip ,Chip, Cheerio Chap, Don't let the door hit ya.

 

[Stevenson]

Someone needs to make a Neil Olshey Press Conference Bingo card.

I get "Look, as a small market team, we are limited in the options we have to get players."

 

[riverman]

Neil...we're not going to make a lateral move just to make a lateral move...if we don't see someone who moves the needle we're going to have to grow from within...I think Ant and Nas and CJ Elleby are going to be big time contributors moving forward!

Ah shit, here we go. Its noon. Time to bifurcate some fuckers.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

knew the wife and kids would be there!

 

[B-Roy]

Oh boy, Chauncey's wife and kids are at the press conference. Let's grill him on his rape allegations per Dia and Blazersedge!

 

[Labinot41]

Billups' family is there, they better respect that!!!

 

[Strenuus]

This ringing.... wtf
