Whattttt. How did our awful GM manage that.

He did what he was supposed to. Nice deal but does that improve our team from last year to convince Dame?

 

[tykendo]

But yall can continue up that mountain waiting on doom and gloom

Bye Bye CJ …. Let’s go get Siakam

 

[Scalma]

That’s 11 spots filled, and presumably the tax MLE still available. Time to hunt for some wings/fours or a pure point.

Evan Turner was terrible. Zach Collins was terrible.

Too happy just being in the playoffs. Olshey is like a 15-20 general manager. That is fine if you are on a team that attracts talent because of location. Small market teams need a top 5 gm.

Last i saw, he was rated in top 10

 

[julius]

I just don't see how they can realistically keep CJ after signing Powell.

That's hilarious. The results don't show that.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

who's got the breakdown of the economics of the current team

Salary?
Tax level?
Hard cap?

 

[DDolla]

So Billups will do the same 3 guard starting line-up?

Bunch of ring chasing, jock strap riding vets going to tinsel town.

Are you suggesting we waive him?

 

[1 Eye Jack]

Any chance Billups has great relationship with Leonard and we trade CJ for him in sign and trade deal

It’s the first day.

Dream on

 

[e_blazer]

Barf.

guessing things will be quite for us for the next month until trade comes along that Neil likes

 

[julius]

if you ask Laker fans, that's like them signing LeBron James again.

If we did, his injury would probably turn fatal.

 

[B-Roy]

Damn

 

[julius]

Yep, that's exactly what I'm suggesting.

That could get Kawhi a contract ~$36M and keep Portland under the Lux Tax.
I love a good fantasy....

[Fez Hammersticks]

Patty Mills for the TPMLE please

you’re probably right why can’t we just get lucky once when it comes to players health

 

[B-Roy]

OPJ for the TPMLE PLEASE.

 

[Scalma]

OPJ for the TPMLE PLEASE.

what’s your fffff fantasy

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Patty Mills for the TPMLE please

We're not getting him, but PLEASE let the Lakers not get him.

(Also: he's concentrating on the Olympics right now, so probably he won't be signed for a while.)

 

[illmatic99]

Can we agree now that Neil and Chauncey were most likely on that plane?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

I wouldn't say no to Frank Ntilikina...
