Merged: Hedo / Blazers hammerin out deal / Reportedly reach agreement

[Miksaid]

955 said the same thing but they like their chances still that we land Hedo.

At this point, I'd be shocked if we didn't land Hedo eventually, unless we started lowballing him with offers because we thought we could get him cheaper.

Fuck it. My Hedo party is starting at 4 whether we've got the official announcement or not.

I don't really understand what's taking so long...

Hedo said that he was coming to Portland to meet management, check out the training site, see the town, etc. That's what he's been doing yesterday and today, so we're right on schedule. It wouldn't make sense for him to sign a contract and then come to Portland. First things first.

Why?

With whom else is he going to speak?

Did Detroit have to have both of their guys visit for a few days before signing?

I don't understand why the Turkoglu-Portland deal is different from everyone else that's agreed around the NBA so far this week.

Perhaps for the same reason that Portland has never been a major free agent destination?

It's fast when you overpay.

We better not keep upping our offer..if he truly is committed to winning, he'll take less money here to win, instead of more money to lose in Toronto

What's the status of this? Is he coming to PDX or not??????
