Free Agents

[DDolla]

With the Blazers on National TV every other day. Team showing heart and determination next man up attitude. Can we say that we are now a great landing spot for Free Agents? Maybe someone out there can team up with Dame, CJ, Nurk to get us over to the next level.

Probably too early, but...
it'll be a bargain basement thing. Who is willing to sign for vet min, cause that's all we're gonna have.

Isn't this crazy? We feel like this is a huge achievement getting this far and we're only halfway to a title. This is HARD. It's supposed to be.

Makes you hate guys like KD who took the easy way out even more.

 

[Blazinaway]

think of the good "rotaion type" players who miss out on a big deal this summer but want to play on a winning team with a rep of a great place to play and want to re-build their value for the followin year - gotta think they look very positively at POR with the success of guys like Kanter/Hood/Curry. I could see some nice players accepting 1 yr deals or the 1 and 1 thing.

I still like trading spare parts for Blake Griffin.

No. We're not going to be a destination for free agents.

We should try, but never count on that as a way to bring in starting caliber or better players.

 

[GDiama]

Cory Joseph would also be nice for a backup but I suppose he gets more than the min.

 

[SwissBlazer]

Probably meeting Thabo this week for the job. I will urge him to take the veteran minimum for us
