Exit Interviews

[BoomChakaLaka]

Very encouraged by Kanter’s euphoria with this team, City and State!

Count him back!!

Not sure how I felt listening to Turner. I think he’ll be gone.

CJ and Dame won’t be broken up (yet) either. OLSHEY speaks too highly of CJ. And!! I learned listening that Kanter and CJ work out together during the Summer - they are friends!

The culture and friendships appear strong with these guys and Dame is the glue.

Glad to be a Blazer fan!

Still too soon to count him back--he says this about every team he's played for haha

No, Olshey spoke at lengths about playing Nurk and Collins together... meaning Zach to play the 4. Unfortunately, Stotts had different ideas. Just like the season before, it took Olshey having to let Ed Davis go before Stotts would really trust Nurk. It'll have to happen again this off-season when we let Aminu go so that Stotts lets Zach get the majority of the minutes at the 4.

What I remember about last years is NO talking about how the organization was going to make an effort to play Collins closer to the basket. Not ask him to hover on the perimeter.
That doesn't sound like they wanted him to play the 4, then knowing they were going to extend Nurk.
Maybe they wanted to play both of them together at times, but...
Certainly from what I remember I don't extrapolate Collins being the starting 4 as the plan last off-season.

Believe letting go of Ed Davis was more about giving Nards a chance. As that season for about half of it he looked like an NBA role player who deserved minutes.
He wasn't going to get those minutes with Davis on the roster.
I said constantly last off-season that Nards would get the first look at Center.
Pending match ups he'd be the backup 5.
Collins still would get time there but Nards would get the first look.
Which is what happened, until Portland picked up Kanter.

Will listen to them all probably later today. Just caught CJ. Really inappropriate to ask him about Aminu. Not his call, as he said, so basically asking him to trash a teammate.

The other guys, did they not have interviews or just not posted?

So funny to see Steve Blake in there. I bet he suits up to replace Seth next year.

Don't all the players get exit interviews?? That's weird...

I'm not sure the Rockets even did exit interviews, did they?

BlazeR Exit interviews should be renamed Brexit interviews, then we'd divert the national attention from the rest of the conference finals and finals finals.
