Can they start with Ant missing todays game?

 

[wizenheimer]

Can they start with Ant missing todays game?

obviously not. They need Ant and Ayton to add a few more wins in order to lower they lottery odds

Cavs and Bucks make a lot of sense to me for the other teams... The issue is always 'who wants him'?

I have to say, I have not missed seeing Grant on the court at all.

Sad but true

Look, if anyone is going to get punished for tanking, it'll be us, deserved or not. Gotta make it look good.

How about GG Jackson, Brandon Clarke and Luke Kannard and 2026 pick to Portland for Jeremi Grant & Duop Reath to Memphis?

Ant is a decent talent, I just don't like his attitude. He's too soft. He's pouting about not being on a winning team, but maybe if he played better we would be a winning team. It's not like it's that hard to make the play in. I'll be so glad to see Simons and Grant gone.

Post of the year so early. This has to be a contender.

Look harder?

I don't understand the thread title or indeed anything in it

It’s acrostic. If you played the game of games you would know that

JG is out with a face contusion.

The question is - is that because he is protected from injury before a trade or because he saw his bank statement and smiled too wide.

How about Grant and Banton for Smart and Konchar and that 2026 pick?

Trading them both to the Remix!

 

[Freshtown]

Latest duncd on dedicated a whole segment to admonishing the blazers for waiting too long to trade him and now being stuck with a player who’s performance is declining while his contract increases.

they were flabbergasted that Portland missed the window to get good value for him.

Yeah it made zero sense to hold onto him this summer, teams like the Lakers were certainly trying to get him.

I'm starting to accept he'll be here until 2028 but that's going to be super annoying.

At least we only have to watch 128 more games of Ayton and Ant which ends next year

We have 292 games left of Grant until 2028.

The vets Cronin acquired here are so pointless.

I guess I'm sort of glad the Blazers are playing decent and winning the last few weeks but it really sucks we aren't slotted for a high lottery pick in an epic draft .

I'm not glad. It's a huge fuck up.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

I'm not glad. It's a huge fuck up.

I just wish it was Scoot, Sharpe, Deni, Camara, Clingan, etc leading us to all the wins. That's would be fine and speak highly of our future. Ant has got hot for a bunch of these wins which I'm not sure helps us in any way as seems he still has little trade value, but bumps us out of the top lottery picks, and likely makes it more expensive to resign him if we decide to try and keep him.

That was the big strategic fail with this Ayton Ant Grant trio Cronin assembled. They play well and it hurts our draft pick. They suck and their trade value tanks. Either way the Blazers suffer.

Exactly. At that point you could be excited about it.

I think they’re jumping the gun. The deadline isn’t for a month. If he’s still here after the deadline I’m gonna be annoyed.

Reports over the summer and last season were that we had first round pick offers and didn’t accept because we were holding out for 2 firsts.

Now we are all desperately hoping that someone gives us one at the deadline.

if that doesn’t happen, woo boy. Cronin should be fired.

speaking of, given the nets struggles to get 2 firsts for cam Johnson right now, does anyone think we could sell Deni for the price we paid (2 decent firsts)? Seems unlikely.

we absolutely could get 2 firsts and 2 seconds for Deni.
