For all the people telling posters to calm down over shitty moves. What is going to be your schtick when Lillard forces a trade since running it back gets us bounced in the first round again?
 
KOC said THJ turned down 4/88 from the Pelicans to return to the Mavs at 4/72.

I wonder if the Pelicans shot their shot at Norm as well and were rebuffed.
And who is left for them? CJ!!!
 
I also think that in a hypothetical trade call, Neil is asking for Zion for CJ.
 
dude, all we’ve heard is we are standing pat.
Dude, Neil has never, on time, taken a swing
Dude, he let lamarcus walk for nothing

This is the norm. We are getting g a rude awaking that the organization doesn’t care about winning. Anything they’ve done has not shown us otherwise
It’s been 1 day…
 
lol....good ship lollypop reporting

here's something else, last season, Snell went from averaging 21 minutes in the regular season to 7 minutes in the playoffs with 9 DNP-CD's

seems like the Blazers should have learned the value of that lesson from the Derrick Jones signing
I wish somebody from Atlanta could give us some insight on why that happened.

Well if he asks for a trade presumably because Neil ended up doing nothing, it’ll be the same reaction y’all are having not even 24 hrs into FA.
 
Breathe a sigh of relief and look forward to the haul that he will bring in to be honest
I would too. Either go all in and move our picks to help dame, or trade him for a massive haul.

Tired of this running it back bullshit and Neil's M.O of hitting bunt singles

It's not 24 hours in FA. This is the icing on the cake of his tenure as a gm. Not good enough.
 
If we still haven't used our tax MLE, than i'm not unhappy with what we have so far. We're gonna be deeper than last year which could mean we can spare some assets to add to CJ's value.

They better use the TPMLE to at least get a movable contract.

But I think they may not even use it to same Jody some money. Then rationalize it by saying no one was out there that was worth it.

I was a fan of Portland before Dame was born...if he wants to leave he should leave..same with every player ever signed here....I want players who want to be here...until people stop eating the market kool aid about Dame I don't believe a fucking word of it....Chauncey and Neil met Dame and told him the plan...after that Dame shut down the rumor mill publicly...that's enough for me
 
This guy thinks he can play good defense. But if so; how does a guy with a .696 efg% and good defense only play 7 minutes in the playoffs? Very weird. Did they have bigger matchups?

None of this is "schtick", it's asking to have perspective and wait until the finished product is presented before you pass final judgement. If this is truly "it", and NO wants to run things back with Norm at the 3, and these new pieces as potential "answers", then by all means, raise hell. SO FAR, it's not good enough, but as many have said, it doesn't take a crystal ball to envision more moves coming before things are complete.

To your point, if Dame really does ask out -- because this is *it* -- MY schtick will be to suggest that this board play nice with BlazersEdge and any other semi-organized fan groups out there, and stage an organized and formal protest against Neil and the Vulcans. If all of that really comes to fruition, it won't just be Neil's fault, it'll be a complete failure at the top levels of leadership. Full stop. But random one-off posts bitching and moaning about things won't make a dent, it'd need to be a full-scale boycott, organized picketing, fan-signed open letter, etc.
 
Why the hell is a 25 yr old in his third year coming off a minimum contract chasing a title?

No shit. I mean it's admirable he cares more about winning than money but damn... to a Lakers team that will implode because they have westbrook... bad move in this instance.
 
Not sure if the rumors surrounding Dame demanding a trade would affect free agents wanting to sign with Portland. If there wasn’t uncertainty with Dame, maybe some free agents would be willing to sign.
