Unless he really tells the management not to match an offer and that he hates portland and doesn't want to come back (i don't see him doing that) It would be awfully hard for Greg to leave even if he kinda wants to.
We'd negotiate his extension early, and if that didn't happen we'd still have his bird rights and he'd only be a RFA where we'd just match any offer he got and he'd be back, no?
I'm not trying to be a jerk, but I don't think we have too much to worry about unless Gregory was hell-bent on getting out of here (which I don't think he is as most other cities he would be under MORE pressure with the city and probably less talented teammates to take the pressure off of him as he isn't a leader really which is perfect for thsi team as we already have our 2 leaders in Roy and LMA). I don't see a better situation for Greg except maybe playing with Chris Paul where he would easily be an 18 and 10 player, imo... simple solution to that though... get Chris Paul!!! Sergio, Bayless, Webster, Frye and our 1st for CP3! DEAL!?!?!?!
