Leonards BIG bet

[Fez Hammersticks]

Paying him the MLE just based off potential is a huge overpay.

He's an Olshey pick so he'll likely get a big offer from PA.

Sure, he might get a big offer from POR (relative to what he probably should get) but I bet he gets an even bigger offer from another team.

Why would give get a big offer from another team? Especially if he continues to be horrible this year.

Teams have so much money to blow this summer and not enough players to blow it on. All the times teams think they can fix a guy or that he just needs a change of scenery. Just watch...

Meyers before he changed his shooting release:

 

[MARIS61]

Myers will get between $17-20 million per year over a 5-6 year deal.

Blazers will match without blinking an eye.

 

[BBert]

So, Enis Kanter money?

 

[PtldPlatypus]

Myers will get between $17-20 million per year over a 5-6 year deal.

Blazers will match without blinking an eye.

You accidentally replaced the pesos symbol with a dollar sign.

Oh, and the NBA doesn't allow contracts over 4 years unless re-signing one of your own players. It would be impossible for the Blazers to "match" a 5-year offer to Meyers.

Ah, didn't know he's restricted, That changes the situation. I can't see him pulling a Greg Monroe on us. He's probably staying

Dear Meyers:

Please watch film of Bill Walton.

Then Olshy should be fire right after the signing.

 

[Blazinaway]

this must be a joke? LOL there are no 6 yr deals and Meyers no one will pay Meyers even close to that kind of money, PA would fire Olshey on the spot if he even brought that up, LMAO

 

[BlazerWookee]

Meyers last 5 games.... 18.4mpg... 4.2ppg 4.4rpg.... shooting 29.4%fg and 6% from 3's

Told you guys hes just a "Matt Boner" end of the bench type of player you can be used in limited certain situations.

<snicker>

 

[chzbrgr]

There's that pesky 15 number popping up again this time from the quick shit everyone thinks we should resign him... Im not too sold on it personally

Jason Quick: Should the team sign him? Yes, he is such an unique talent. But it always depends on what number we are talking about. Sign him for $15 million a year? Not right now. Ten million a year? Probably. Bottom line is it's too early to fairly identify a price tag.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Meyers was scouted and teams were closing in on him as soon as he received the ball on the perimeter.

The summer plan? Work on a quicker release.

Miserable failure.

This is true? Summer plan should have been learn to pump fake and go to the rim.

Summer plan should have been to go back to basics in every aspect of the game and actually learn to play basketball. The guy is lost.

I think Meyers is only effective when his minutes are limited. The guy doesn't have a feel for the game, never has, never will. But there an old sports saying, focus on what the guy can do, not what he can't do. As long as they keep playing him a lot, he's going to be exposed.
