Re: Minnesota: full of shit?

If Minn can't work out a s&t, they will make the offer. I don't believe they can work out a s&t with an offer signed anyway.
 
Re: Minnesota: full of shit?

Fez saying it will be matched means nothing. Absolutely no guarantee it will. Olshey has said he didn't want contracts like the one we would make for Batum. If they match a $45mil (plus incent) offer, then fine. Portland would not be making the right move.

Your team is rebuilding, they don't need contracts like that right now. Again, you will mired in mediocrity for years. They won't match.

I don't think Minnesota is convinced or we would have seen an offer sheet signed already and they wouldn't be talking S&T.

You're forgetting one very important fact. The Blazers are owned by a crazy billionaire who falls in love in crazy shit and mediocre players. Google Experience Music Project. Google Darius Miles

You can throw out all the "logic" and "facts" you want but at the end of the day all of that doesn't apply to Paul Allen.

The offer sheet comes after they've exhausted all S&T attmpts. If it comes down to that, you will be Kahn'd one way or the other.

All we can do is wait and see. In the meantime, let's compare dick size.

15 of 23 years in the lotto, bro.

That has to be some kind of pro-sport record.
 
Re: Minnesota: full of shit?

Awwww, look at guys. The Minny trolls call things kahn does getting Kahn'd. how cute. Too bad your gm sucks donkey balls.

We invented the gm terminology aka pritchslapped. I believe you guys were pritchslapped when we got Roy for Randy Foye. Remember that?? Have fun with our sloppy seconds.

yet the owner could just match it and watch as you guys don't get the guy you 'want'.

Thats why the Wolves haven't signed him to an offer sheet. They know the second he does, he's as good as gone. And since he doesn't have a no trade clause, they could trade him and then you'd be without him anyways.

Wait...they don't need a contract like Nics? You mean...like, he's being overpaid?

and have you noticed that outside of LaMarcus, no one on the team has a big contract?

PG? rookie contract
SG: moderate contract
SF: no real SF under contract that is a big contract
PF: big contract
C: rookie contract or medium contract

No one has a huge contract on the team. So adding Batum, even at an inflated contract, won't mire (is that the correct spelling? It looks funky) them.

You don't think that the Blazers with an overpaid Batum aren't better than the Timberwolves without him?

I do. And I think that the Blazers very well might stink with an overpaid Batum.

Batum would be a#3 or #4 with us. With you he'd be a #2. :lol:

Read some of the reasoning out there and you'll see that matching Batum isn't good for your team.

The Wolves who lost 21 of their last 26 games, and the team who has been in the lotto for a straight decade, those Wolves?!

:lol:

So you're GM is willing to be paying a #3 or #4 guy #2 money?

That's logical.

Pekovic >>>> Meyers Leonard?
Kevin Love > Aldridge
W/O Batum, Williams or Budinger << Batum
Roy/Shved = Matthews (Too soon to determine)
Rubio >>>>> Lilliard

Yeah, The Wolves are better w/o Batum too.

Re: Minnesota: full of shit?

I want to hear these #2 and #3 options that would make Batum a #4 option

Ready to laugh

I love the extra greater-than, less-than symbols ... really gets the point across.

Lmao

Love is hardly even a #1 option. Massively overrated and can barely get his own shot with his limited offensive game and athleticism.

Rubio is a facilitator, not a scorer.

Pekovic is a role player

Keep. Trying.
 
Re: Minnesota: full of shit?

I'm one of the bigger Rubio lovers here, and I fully acknowledge that he's nowhere near a #2 scoring option. Not for you guys, not for Real Madrid, not for Charlotte, not for University of Washington...

I don't watch as much MIN as I should, but I don't think I ever saw a play run for your #3 option Pekovic...did I miss them?
 
Re: Minnesota: full of shit?

I agree, but it answers the question as to why they've been in the lotto for 10 straight years.

So this is how you compensate for being worse currently? Looking at past performance? Yeah, the Wolves have been in the lotto 15/23 years. Is that all you can say? The Blazers percentage of times in the lotto is about to go up substantially. I also like when you add "bro" to everything you say, this isn't Coachella, GNC, or Pac-Sun, so you don't need to speak like you just bought three new Hurley shirts and a long board.

Pekovic isn't ">>>>" over anything or anyone. I stopped reading after that, sorry. :)
