I know for a fact that Neil Olshey doesn't read this forum.

Oh really. you monitor his phone? I heard he has a scrambler for his IP. You are just another puppet in his pocket. He fears the knowledge of this forum. It was obvious in the tone of his exit interview, when he said everyone wants this, or everyone is down on that... he MEANT us...
 
The good news:
Collins and Nurkic are young and if they work hard they’ll get better, a lot better maybe.
This could be the growth from within method and it could work if they make significant jumps.

The Blazers roster will be different next year.
They’ll have a draft pick, the MLE and who knows how free agency and the trade market play out this summer.

I guess some people like NO or trust the process more than me, as I just don’t think he’s the right guy... However, there is a chance the Blazers let it bake strategy works out. In which case my opinion will change and I’ll line up and admit to being wrong.
 
I offer a compromise: Everyone will stop posting that Olshey should be fired, as long as everyone begins posting that the do-nothing is mental.

Really...the guy has too many neurotic hangups about making trades to be a GM. But, he is a GM, so let's just call the poor inhibited snowflake what he is...bonkers.
 
I should add that I favor employing the mental. The NBA should have one mental GM to prove it doesn't discriminate, and, with the league's high visibility, to set an example to other industries.

Please quote one person who is in favor of "doing nothing". I'll be waiting forever because there is no one. It's not one extreme or the other. You can keep CJ while completing other moves.

Non sequitur, both to my post, and to any other post by anyone else. Your false assumption is that trade decisions are made by us voting. Is that the current gossip in Olshey's nuthouse?

Sure was a surprise to see you responding to me, of all people! Seems like half the posts come from three O-Livers...The board's about 75% in agreement about Olshey and Stotts except for you guys.

I don't think you can. We, as a fan base though seem to be more accepting of mediocrity than others.

It seems to only real way to be heard would be for season ticket holders to not renew and let the organization know why.

Big surprise, @jlprk can't come up with any facts to back up his posts so he resorts to his usual stupid tactics of accusing O-Livers of taking money from Olshey to spread his word in this forum. Your shtick is really dumb.

Huh? You post a non sequitur response to me, then don't explain how it was connected to what I said. So, you're admitting it was a non sequitur. Weird. Then you try personal stuff to compensate for your lack of an answer.

It's one way for sure

Yep, it's not my way but it is a way.

By staying with the program I've managed to get some pretty good seats. Of course, it doesn't express my displeasure at the box office but then I don't have to rely on another fan to provide me with really good seats.

Also, by supporting the team I get some pleasure out of life in the basketball arena. It's a lot of fun supporting the team. Constantly ragging on the team, which I've done back in the early 70s, is not fun. I choose to enjoy my team's basketball prowess which is better than the alternative.

Cheering for purgatory is not fun for me. Going into each year KNOWING we gave 0 chance at a title sucks for me

Serious question--how would your life be better if the Blazers win a title? Are you an Astros fan? Did their world series championship have any impact on your quality of living?

I like the Astros. And yes, it did have an impact. My son had his iPhone x stolen at the parade.

As for the Blazers, no. It would have zero to minimal impact. But I went to the first game, and love my Blazers. I hate that they seem content to be good, and don't seem to want to take the chances to be great.

For about 30 years. Gave them up before last season because of health costs.

Why?

I just figured that someone who didn't like the team might not have season tickets.
