Do you think OKC will match the offer for Kanter?

[Fez Hammersticks]

Whoops got the time wrong..

Huh?

 

[ripcityboy]

Huh?

Thought OKC had till 2 today to match. My bad.

 

[rasheedfan2005]

You have information that Canzano is gay?

Kingspeed slept with a beat writer he just wont tell us who

 

[magnifier661]

All reports claim OKC will match but will wait for the very last second to confirm

 

[RoyToy]

All the reports are also based on what Presti said before receiving the offer as far as I know

No one knows anything

This a confusing day for time zones.

FWIW, Sam Amick is saying they have until "tonight"......whatever that means.

 

[OneLifeToLive]

According to Royce Young, All we need to know is that they are going to match. So why banter back and forth?

Get your mind set and moving towards other hypothetical possibilities.

This has been all along.

This is what I said a day or two ago.

That clown. Lol

I think this Kanter was just the last gasp free agent possibility and now we'll be moving out of free agent mode and into trading mode. Likely we'll pick up an expiring contract or waived player.

Some kind of lopsided deal in the works. I like a deal that would bring both Terrance Ross and Demar Derozan to Portland. But I know Neil doesn't work that way.

Lordy, I hope you are right!

Could the delay be due to last-minute negotiations between Presti and Olshey? Maybe we'll get free players or some other surprise.

I personally think Presti is just taking it to the last minute. He knows what Portland's intentions were when signing him to that contract. It was either to acquire him or stick him with an very expensive contract.

 

[Red Rooster]

this is a REHASH, nothing new

The SI article cited in that twitter just summarizes the tweets we already know of, predicting what OKC will do.

Right on.

Or force him to dump salary, giving a small pool of NBA ready players a marketplace like Portland

 

[riverman]

I think it's possible that Presti could match and trade Kanter to another team as well, or be weaving a three way deal with the Blazers. Olshey and Presti could both need the time to do a more complicated 3 team deal that helps both teams. Find out soon enough I guess.

It's only 7 1/2 hours extra, waiting from 1:30 till 9:00.

Sitting here patiently waiting with my hands folded, I am reminded of another great crisis, the Cuban Missile Crisis. Click on this video.

Didn't that whole thing start because the US put missiles in Turkey?

Damn Turks! Once again spoiling our day!

 

[jlprk]

Kanter's a Turk. You connected the 2 great crises into a circle. Good eye! I'm tired of linear thinkers calling us conspiracy thinkers. Now you need to find the underlying common cause.

 

[Mediocre Man]

Maybe a circle jerk to pass the time?

I'll go first......ok, next

 

[jlprk]

I liked you more when you had swirling psychedelic visions of colorful Blazer schedule foldouts that banks give away.

What do they call the area around the White House? The Rose Garden.

'Nuff said?

 

[jlprk]

Presti and Olshey are negotiating Durant's future right now, making us all wait. Olshey could use some sharp thinkers like us in his office. His assistants didn't show up on a Sunday.

Olshey, if you're reading this to find some advice, just PM us and we'll get over there.

And if you're not reading this for advice, could you please post what the exact deadline is?

 

[Blazer509]

Just acquired a player from Orlando for Future 2nd round pick. Anyone know anything about him?

I wonder if this tells us anything about the Kanter situation.

 

[Blazer509]

The guy is a Small Forward so Nvm.
