There goes Deni

I swear some people are so desperate to make a name for themselves they just say stupid shit like this.

It's all just a running joke now..

I think people on social media are usually the last ones to know when a horse has been beaten to death.

 

[ehizzy3]

There’s no way lol

 

[Pinwheel1]

So a guy from the area is in town? Yeah there could be no other reason

 

[BassPlaya]

...and drama driven fans will lap at this like an all day sucker.

 

[andalusian]

So, they hire him because he is cheap, but they have to continue to pay Joe Cronin's salary? Yes, that sounds both legit and reasonable. Pfft

 

[Samuel]

pinwheel empire eh

the dundon pile-on has reached epic proportions.

 

[Hoopguru]

Content providers galore!

 

[Hoopguru]

Are all fans negative on Ton Dundon and what he's accomplished here, to date?

I don't think he's doing himself any favors, but some of that could be in the messaging.

But also, I think some of it might be also be that there is a weird need to make everything into a story, and have it be NOW NOW NOW.

 

[THE HCP]

Of course he’s in town, he LIVES here.

It's all just a running joke now..

Oh come on. Way to throw a bucket of cold water on my visions of a Deni and Clingan to the Lakers for Ayton, whereupon the Blazers suck so badly that they get the next big thing in the subsequent draft.

 

[BigGameDamian]

We are the joke of the NBA and we’ve been here before.

 

[Hoopguru]

The Hurricanes seem to be contenders once again. ICE City

 

[LayneStaley]

Considering El Cheapo is buddies with Cuban and Cuban blasted the Mavs and Nico for the Luka trade I don’t see this happening. I gotta think Tightwad still talks to Cuban.

 

[wizenheimer]

speculation based upon next to nothing. Is there money in that?

You gotta have speculative money to make speculative money, unfortunately.

So maybe if we had a comparison of what the blazers have in the way of a payroll (for the business side of things) vs other teams, maybe we'd see how much they're either wasting or not spending vs others.

Too much of what we're hearing is from people with agenda's, and many of them aren't trustworthy sources.

Maybe they have a bloated staff payroll? Maybe they have people who work for the franchise that are doing half the world for twice the play sorta thing. Who knows.

Does it really matter the they didn't bring the 2 way guys? Two of them have no business being on the court, and if Caleb Love is the catalyst for winning, the team isn't winning.

I mean, this is still the franchise that did SPAM after all. It shouldn't be a surprise anyone that maybe they need to not blindly spend money.

But that's all boring and won't get clicks or people listening to your radio show

IMO, yes, it does matter. Absolutely nobody is saying that the 2 way players should be there because they help us win. They're not even allowed to play. That's a lame straw man, but easier to defend. "Oh, what, Love is gonna help us win?"
It's incredibly cheap. As has been said, no other team does it. And this isn't some zig while everyone else zags sort of thing. There's no good reasoning to leave them outside of money, is there?

Cuban wanted to buy the Blazers with Dundon but El Cheapo wouldn't let him be the majority owner.

Would ANY of us known or even noticed their presence had we not been told how "cheap" it was that he didn't bring them?

So you think saving on hotel rooms for a couple nights puts out a good or bad message to prospective free agents and their agents?
How about team camaraderie or chemistry? And this isn’t the media making this up…… Them helping us win isn’t the point…..neither are the tshirts……but it puts out a very strong message. There was a reason I bumped that broadcasting thread bro.

Isn't what Infowars was all based upon?

 

[julius]

Free agents weren't coming here anyways.

 

[wizenheimer]

Free agents weren't coming here anyways.

might not be staying either

Do you think it is a good move to leave members of the team home so that we can save some billionaires a couple of thousand dollars at the most?
What does US noticing matter? I don't notice what the weight room looks like. I don't notice what the media snacks look like.
Why is it that the "defense" of him being cheap doesn't actually address that or defend it at all? Will they help us win. Will we notice. Who gives a fuck. It's still cheap.
Why is saving a billionaire a couple of grand something you're wanting to go to bat for?

 

[RR7]

Is it fun to be the butt of national jokes so we can save a poor billionaire some couch cushion money?
