Lakers are gonna add Kawai and LeBron, Mavs are gonna add Doncic and DeAndre Jordan... Neil is going after James Nunnally! At this rate I don’t think this Blazers even make playoffs next season

Yeah, it’s sad how Portland gets shut out of the free agent sweepstakes every year, and can never pull off a big trade. We always end up with the leftovers that nobody else wants.
 
Bones thinks some 28 year old scrub that has never made it in the NBA, and averaged 9 ppg in a low level league in Europe is going to help Blazers able to win a playoff series... hahahahahahahahahahaha!

Man, I lose more respect for your basketball knowledge every time you post... it’s a complete different game... this scrub has never dominated at any level... McBuckets averaged 27 in college... and do you even watch games or just look up cockamamie advanced stats and arm measurements to decide who is good... McBuckets is a good scorer from anywhere on the court, not just 3

What's with the personal attack dude? First, you try to make a point by saying "it's a completely different level", but then you contradict yourself by referencing college, which is a lower level than the EuroLeague?

Arm measurements? Since when is that a part of this discussion? Why even stray off your point like that if it's strong enough?

Dominating at a certain level doesn't mean anything, because a lot of players dominating at a lower level aren't good enough to do so at the next, and suck because they can't adjust to a different role. Should we go sign Jimmer Fredette too?

If McDermott was such a good scorer from inside the arc, why do those shots translate to a 97 ORTG over the course of his career? Stats reflect production, and he hasn't produced anywhere except for 3. And he doesn't pass, or defend, or rebound...

Stop trying to cause drama and be respectful. Your point is weak.. so you're resorting to childish finger pointing with no substance. Your better than that. Have a real discussion, or don't have one at all.

Yrah because theres more to basketball than scoring and spot up shooting translates.

Sorry bro, I can’t have a real discussion with someone who thinks signing James Nunnally is a good thing
 
Undrafted players are how most teams keep payroll down. Most teams try guys like this all year, until they find someone who lasts. Paul Allen likes to go Cadillac with 100% drafted players, so we get all capped out. Of course, knowing "non-Trader Bob" Olshey, this is his big summer acquisition. Vacation time!

FTFY.

I'm not even saying put him in the rotation. I like him as injury insurance because he can shot 3s efficiently on high volume and defend. Do you not think he can do those two things?

No, I don’t... he is a scrub. If he gets any minutes this is I high lottery team

So you really think a dude who shot 54% from 3pt in EuroLeague won't be able to shoot 3s in the NBA?

Damn, I guess Doncic is gonna be a 15% 3pt shooter then.

You don’t need to be a clairvoyant to know this guy isn’t good enough for the NBA... 30 teams have agreed with me for the last 8 years he has been scoring under 10 ppg in a low level league overseas
 
I seem to remember, at one point and time, we picked up a "scrub who had played a combined 12 NBA games and 142 minutes in 5 years since going undrafted from some small school". He then started 75 games for us and got a 3yr deal from SAS.

Joe Ingles, Yogi Ferrell, Matty Delly...all would be useful on our squad. All undrafted. All now getting paid.
 
Honolulu Airport Twitter notes that Celebrity GM Neil Olshey has just landed after his triumphant offseason, with a lei around his neck, a mai tai and straw in one hand, and a spare hula skirt hanging out of his back pocket.

This guy reminds me Royce O'Neal, who would've also been a good pickup. People want flashy players, not ones who play hard, grind, and get it done.

@theprunetang It's like he had no clue what point you were trying to make because he just reconfirmed it haha.
 
Hey if he’s good enough to get a 2way contract or something. Whatever.
I have felt all off season, the Blazers will basically do nothing.
Use there draft pick on a project - check.
Won’t be able to use the tax exceptions, and if they do it’ll be for an over paid 8-9th man type.
Use the MLE on another 8-9th man type.

NO will say the usual sales stuff.

Who knows though, maybe NO will surprise me, I hope so.
As far as this guy goes, it’s highly unlikely even if they gave him a 2 way contract he’s ever really in the rotation. No harm in looking though the 3 point percentage is pretty impressive.

So, you plan to pout over all of the end of bench guys the Blazers take a look at? If the Blazers are successful in using the TPE or MLE to land the vet Olshey is looking for, and especially if they have to match an offer on Nurk, they are going to have to waive the current end of benchers to save money and minimize luxury tax implications.
 
so its a forgone conclusion that the Lakers ARE getting Leonard and LeBron?

Can you give me next week lotto numbers?

Yeah It’s shocking he isn’t bringing Lebron to fill out the bench. Seriously every team brings in guys who are “cheap” to see if they could help them. I don’t think this has anything to do with setting the bar anywhere.
I actually agree with you in disliking NO, but complaining he brought in a guy to look at is pretty petty.
 
I was watching his and his team's highlights yesterday, and he obviously has some skills we can use.

But what stood out in those videos was the play of his teammate Jan Vesely. Think he might be due back in the league.

Please point to a time when this has been displayed...
 
It's stupid to worry that much about the 15th man on the roster.
