Nikola Mirotic played well tonight. Should the Blazers be interested?

DeMarre Carroll is the type of SF we need!

Of course. Actually fits the system. Flexibile contract (team option after this year)

Chicago should be developing Markkanen instead of giving minutes to someone that won’t be there for more than another year. Some kind of package involving Harkless could work.

Speaking of showcasing... Great job by Evan Turner tonight!!!

How fortuitous that he had his best game as a Blazer while playing in the Central Time Zone when all the Eastern Conference GMs, who likely remember Turner as a useful player from his days in Boston, could catch the game before turning in for the night.

Neil needs to be on the phone with every Eastern Confetence GM first thing in the morning and not give up until Turner is moved.

He always seems to play better against the Eastern Conference teams. It's not just style of play and quality of competition, he just seems to get up more for those games.

Not sure if it's because he is playing in front of family and friends, because he wants to get traded to an Eastern Conference team, or if it's just a reawakening of past playoff rivalries against teams like the Bulls and Cavs. Probably all of the above.

Ok Neil, Evan did his job. Now do yours!

GMs do more research than watching one game and assuming that's who a player is...

Too obvious, thus too expensive. A GM should be expert at finding undervalued hidden nuggets.

Do I really need to go back and edit my post to change the font color?

Did you ever find out if @swish3 has discovered how to change your default font style? If so, maybe I should make my default green. Then I'd only need to change it when I'm not being sarcastic.

I read your post then, and still do upon rereading it now, as sincere = nonsarcastic. Every sentence is either obviously or probably true. Read it again:
