Norm RoCo traded

[Five Second Violation]

Another shooting guard.

Who evidently can't shoot. 27% three point shooter in college and the NBA so far.

Yay.

 

[BBert]

There is no upside to this trade from a competition standpoint. Not now. Not in the future. We didn't even get picks FFS

 

[BBert]

Did any the experts in this forum see this trade coming?

No expert on any continent saw this trade coming.

 

[Mediocre Man]

We need to see if @Mediocre Man had any pizza delivered recently! I fucking love that the 3/4 of this forum won’t get this! #BAM

I don’t get it? I’m having a nice Cobb salad

 

[BBert]

Blazers make a stupid ass trade. Come listen to Torey and Eric rant about it.

LOL

There isn’t supposed to be. But there might be down the line with Keon.

 

[Mediocre Man]

You said it was gonna be pizza with extra cheese and thick crust! This is pizza with dog shit on top!

Well no one is
Always right
I don’t work for the
Trail Blazers so please

Forgive me
Or don’t, it
Really doesn’t matter to me

I can take the hate
Take this post for what it’s worth

Wait for what?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Maybe Cronin doesn’t expect the Blazers to keep him so he did the Clips a solid to try to entice them to give him employment next season?

Come on - you couldn't have weaved a "I know nothing" in there?

 

[illmatic99]

He said wait for it.

 

[BBert]

Cannot wait for him to dump Lillard for Al Horford and a 2026 2nd rounder because he has to pay Ant and Nurk.

Thank you for making me laugh to keep from crying

 

[PCmor7]

It doesn't matter.

Cronin just traded Mediocre Man to Indiana for a 14-year-old Pacers fan with some solid dance moves but one leg considerably shorter than the other and "future considerations."

 

[DDolla]

Lebron was dancing this morning… just sayin

 

[BBert]

I wonder if fans will boo when they play

Wouldn't be fair to them. This isn't their fault.

 

[BBert]

I wanted a trade that would make us worse this year but better next year. Cronin is going to have to pull more than one rabbit out of his hat for that to happen. I guess we'll find out.

 

[tiredhunter]

So, when does Eric Bledsoe's Non-Guaranteed (EBNG) money become more of a meme than Raef-Lafrentz's Expiring Contract(RLEC)?

 

[BBert]

Hard to say where Dame is in this, but be sure he was consulted. Maybe Dame said hey, we cannot let Ant go so ship Powell out and then he said RoCo play 4 all year and he isnt one, so go get one.

 

[illmatic99]

 

[BoomChakaLaka]

LOL

What are the screen names of the guys? Tory and Eric?

 

[illmatic99]

Leaving Billups out to dry to answer trade questions.... Amateur move. Quick... Tell us how many rebounds Norm had again.

 

[wizenheimer]

wait...does that mean no step 2 and step 3 trades based upon this trade?

what a fucking surprise

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Of course this fuck wad ducks the media.

Right out of Neil’s playbook.

 

[BBert]

But now we are at home and presumably would have had enough pride to not allow that to happen again. Tonight we will have a problem just getting enough guys on court to play!

I just read the Blazers are signing @THE HCP to a 10-day.

His nickname is The Tank

 

[wizenheimer]

well, with this trade as the template, next trade CJ to Cleveland fro Rubio, Cedi Osman, and 2 future 2nd's

that would take an additional 24 million off of next season's payroll

 

[HailBlazers]

This is Billups' first trade as a GM Coach.

We'll just see what happens. I don't take Chauncey's answer to that question as anything other than him saying what he has to say. There could be no more moves. There could be another horrendous move. There might be a meh move. Maybe just maybe there will be a brilliant move. None of that will ever change the fact that Lawrence Frank just took Joe Cronin to the cleaners.

 

[BBert]

There was a time, many moons ago, that this would be deemed as a bannable post.

I would have paid for the banning.
