Dwight Jaynes: Batum and his agent are reportedly very upset with the Trail Blazers and say he wants "no part of this team


Dwight is tweeting all over about this using several different tweets about it with a link to the same article.

I'm too crushed right now to read the article (and give Dwight a hit). I can't beleive Dwight would make up all this shit just to get hits to his blog. I'm hoping that is what it is, but I'm fearing the worst.

It's clearly his agent talking this up. We've known Nic pretty well for four years now, and he loves it in PDX. Plus he doesn't have the aggressive nature to say something like that.

Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

what a wacky off season!
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

If Nic finds out that this is coming from Minny's side and they'll tarnish his image in PDX, he will shun Minny.

David Kahn might have just fucked himself over.

or his agent is about ready to be fired?
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

I'm still debating whether his agent made this up or Kahn. Why would an agent burn bridges like that? Even for a rookie, this is a stupid move.

Then again, it could just be Dwight pulling shit out of his ass.
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

Maybe Dwight will somehow be fired over this.
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

This, followed by getting repeatedly owned on twitter a few days ago.

Can't be good for a guy his age. Just fuckin admit your mistake. How can someone be so prideful?
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

I don't think Dwight would make it up. Doesn't mean his source is worth a damn. Didn't he used to work with Kahn?
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

LMAO. Now we all see more evidence why this douchebag had to beg for a job.
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

I don't know what to believe, but pretty slimy of Dwight to posts several tweets about the same article. I've been following some NBA journalist and it is standard to throw a juicy tid bit and link an article. I haven't seen any otehr journalists that throw out three juicy tid bits all to the same article. Appears desperate by Jaynes.

Having said all . . . please don't be true.
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

Kahn and Nic's douchebag agent are behind this.

Per Sources.

....my sources.
 
Weird. I know it's most likely not true but my feelings are kinda hurt.
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

Haynes with new tweets: "the truth will come out."

Truth is out old man. You're a douche and a tool.
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

Kahn and Dwight worked together covering the Blazers for years at the Oregonian. That's his source.
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

His source can chew on my nutsack.

So tired of grandpa Jaynes. Why does this guy still have a job? And more importantly, why does he get a nickname such as "The Godfather"?

Ruins the name, just as his abilities, or lack thereof, undermines the abilities of the media (and that's saying something).
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

What the fuck is going on! Working the Timbers game and just read all this shit! Is Jaynes just full of shit like always? Haven't looked at twitter......... Has Nic said anything?
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

I like how the "source" claims that Nic "has a relationship with Rubio"....but then says that Nic also "developed one with Adelman" in the two days he was out there.

Look, I'm no relationship expert, but it stands to reason that one normally wouldn't burn bridges with teammates/bosses that you've worked with for 4 years b/c of someone you met for dinner and a meeting this week.
 
Re: Minnesota wants Batum @ ~12M a year

If Jaynes made this up just to get clicks on his article we need to start a major movement just to make him look like a clown and get him fired!
