Trade Joe Ingles - Arrival and Departure

[B-Roy]

NAW sucks, so I don't care, but lol at Hughes being another guard (I know he's out the door too).

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

Drum roll…..

does Joe have a bigger deal for us later today or tomorrow? I’m thinking so!

 

[James lamphear]

I seen Hughes in college like him but playing for the jazz probably not much playing time with them. But the time he did play decent defense stats.

 

[oldmangrouch]

So. Are all the Cronin haters hating this move too?

Nah. Nothing going on here worth an emotional investment one way or the other. In fairness, I will even give him a thumbs-up along with my yawn.

Unfortunate we'll never get to use this meme:

 

[PtldPlatypus]

not if you read some opinions. more focus is being placed on NAW than Juancho.

Heh--didn't realize how ineffective he's been this year. Shows how much attention I pay to the Spurs (and Celtics).

 

[illmatic99]

what does Woj know...




-- and perhaps more at deadline.

lol this comment is perfect.

 

[B-Roy]

NAW's usage rate to TS% ratio makes me want to barf my face off.

 

[Hoopguru]

Interesting....Bet Joe's not done yet.

 

[B-Roy]

BTW, this negates the claim by some that Sell-Low Joe "held out" for NAW over Hayes in the NOP deal. Wouldn't have dumped him for nothing if that were the case.

Or, they just didn't want the 5M salary but needed it to make the deal work, and figured NAW would be easier to dump than Hayes.

Blazers Legend Joe Ingles. Hang his number in the rafters alongside Pau Gasol's.

The....

"...and perhaps more at the deadline"

from Woj, I don't think that is just a throwaway line.

exactly.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Was Cronin in the front office when KP did all the draft day maneuverings with Steve Patterson? I think it was 8 trades or such?

There's almost no one else left with guaranteed money next year that we can dump. Only Bledsoe.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

I think until after the deadline we go from Ripcity to Tradecity -- cause i feel like Cronin's phone line is blowing up

 

[TBpup]

Cronin eviscerating the ghost of Olshey lickety split.

Couldn't find a taker for Didi Louzada?

 

[B-Roy]

This shit is wild to me.

 

[DDolla]

We got more expiring contracts

 

[rotary111]

Is Joe playing chess?

He seems to have a plan.

Perhaps, Collect draft assets and more guards (?) so we can move up in the draft to select that WABC?

 

[DDolla]

Cronin’s plan, get more expiring contracts and draft picks. Joe will never play for Portland

Don't forget Festus Ezeli.

Check my post history for “You can trade any bad contract”…

 

[andalusian]

During the last 3 days I am not sure if what I see is the Portland Trailblazers or Chicago O'hare.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

I am not going to say I believe the Blazers will be moved cause I DO NOT but one could say this looks like they clearing salary to make the team more attractive to a NEW Owner so that owner could put his own mark on the team.

I am not saying Jody is selling BUT it would not shock me if this news broke at some point in the near future ( next 2 yrs ) just saying ....

 

[illmatic99]

Just fyi... Josh Hart posted a pic on a PJ on his way to Portland. Not sure of NAW was on the plane with him.

A new owner could just… do this themselves if that’s what they wanted.

Why would they not trade Dame then? Are they bamboozling Dame by telling them they're trying to build a contender but stripping it down to parts to sell the team?
