Looks like Dame didn't see, that it could be his fault he was defending Stotts. He may not see, that he is hurting team's chances valuing friendship with CJ higher than bringing all star (maybe). And now this. And then he goes out and talks about improvement. Whatever. It just doesn't look good.

both the other two way contract guys we brought in will play before him...he's a practice body...if we signed 15 spots he'd be 18th on the depth chart...lot of hoopla about a practice body really...we've got a lot more depth this season than in the past

It is simply opposite of professional move, however you wanna explain it. After all this drama Dame made this summer, it is just comedy.

he's a G league player....nobody will notice him all season just like Luis Montero....that's not comedy...it's family to Dame and Dame didn't cause the drama...the internet did..professional only means you get paid to do a job...it doesn't mean you're great.

this dude has no business even making the G League-- being a practice body is hardly useful when asst coaches are better than him.

it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things but i hate the opportunity cost. that spot coulda gone to a youngin who is really deserving who could become a rotational player with seasoning. not likely but it could happen-- while we KNOW it won't with blevins. it's a wasted asset when we have very few to begin with.... and kinda shameless. if he's the difference between keeping and losing Dame, then Dame isn't who i thought he was.

we disagree...I think the negative spin about the kid has little foundation honestly as he's barely sniffed an NBA game...he's a G league player in my view but whatever...I won't be watching many G league games...I don't have any problem with Dame and his cousin being teammates on this level at all.

he was the third best player on his team at Montana State as a senior after flaming out his first two years at Southern Miss University. He shot 28% from the college three at age 22 in a conference with 0 NBA players. his advanced metrics are ghastly. I genuinely think @BonesJones might give this guy a run for his money in a pickup game.

he's not an NBA prospect. I doubt he's even a Euro/China/Australia prospect.

here are his GLeague stats btw

it's not pretty. 16th leading scorer on his team among 16 players who played there. come on.

Only thing I know is he protected the ball in the small sample size I saw him play and he didn't play ISO ball...he's also never been coached by this crew and whatever he did in college doesn't need to define him...you might be right and know more about his game and flaws....I just don't think he'll sniff the court other than the G league and he may very well flame out of that ..doesn't affect our team to me..I promise you he'd play in China....that's not a deep talent pool

Shit, one day I’ll post what the Raptors were doing for Kawai Leonard so that he’d stay. This ain’t shit! Also, you’d be amazed at what he is allowed to do with the Clips, part of his contract.

Please post ALL of that. That sounds juicy!
 
1) He knows the plays, so he won't be a problem in scrimmage, and he can teach the rook the plays.
2) He won't be demanding PT.
3) He's Dame's cousin.
4) He's got some serious blackmail material on Neil.

He sure can't play, so I'm guessing all 4?
 
I mentioned this fact first time we signed him .....you think it's Dame or Neil that want him here but it could be Jody Allen.....maybe he works security for her in the off season......just sayin'

Maybe she needs some endangered species smuggled
 
I’ve never heard of or seen anything like Blevins being in the NBA. He isn’t a starter at Gonzaga. I don’t think he starts or makes a roster at most top 20 programs. Yet he’s in year two with the Portland trailblazers.
 
Seems like alot of people here have never signed an employment contract with perks.

i get free coffee, lunches, overnight fishing trips, use of company vehicles, etc.


And thats on my meager salary.

This is just a perk for Dame and wont affect our playing or win loss record at all.


its just a perk peeps. Aint no thang!

You should ask your wife for a raise.

He does not belong in the league, if he is on this roster again next season I will be beyond irritated, how much of this crap do we have to put up with?

Totally agree. He needs to find a team that he can play for. He could play in Europe or China.

Let's not jump to conclusions here. Depending on how things play out this summer, we might very well need him to tank once again next season.
 
If nothing else, he’s earned two years of the NBA minimum salary. If he’s smart, that’s a pretty good financial foundation for a kid his age. It’s time for him to show some self awareness and move on to something he’s actually good at…..

I’ve played against guys that played pro in Europe and I honestly don’t think Blevins is good enough to hang with them. He might be able to beat me one on one (I’m jk I know he’d whoop me, but you get what I’m saying)

I'm sure he can probably score a job at Dame's car dealership.

Are you sure about that? I'm pretty sure when Neil asked for a resume, BlevGOD just handed him a napkin with the words "I'm Dame's cousin" written on it.

So he can sell cars and use this for a name tag!

Disturbing evidence Dame doesn't prioritize the Blazers contending.

Yes it's a very minor team asset. I just could never imagine Jordan or Bird enableing a family member on their teams NBA roster over a more talented player.
