I thought I was over the top…

Almost verbatim what was told to me this morning.

good, not a guy to overpay for and this summer he wants to be paid

Jesus man, maybe chill out a bit

No.

Since we love small guards, how about Harris if they buy him out?

Not when they realize Greg Brown is a cheaper version of Jerami Lolol

The Blazers will circle back around to being a mediocre team that’s what there going to do.

2 first round picks for Grant.....yeeeeeesh

I guess my thought when reading the post was that it was 2 1st rounders or a young player tofu their needs. They got Bagley so I wonder why Cronin didn't get Hayes from N.O. as first rumored the night before and flip him to Detroit? I know there are a lot of moving parts, but seems like he was maybe trying to get some young players that fit Detroits wish list more than our and he read them wrong. Just me speculating because I really don't get what happened this week with Portland.

The sad thing is I bet the Raptors wouldn’t even take both our lotto picks for Trent Jr lol. Fuck you Neil.

My biggest fear is the old adage - Free agent stars never sign to play in Portland, Oregon.

Dame or no Dame, the top free agents just don’t find Portland appealing, Oregon State tax attractive, etc.

After shooting a blank at the trade deadline, my hopes for a rebuild-around-Dame are fleeting. What if both Ant and Nurkic are offered crazy deals….and if so, we won’t be able to match both in such an instance. All in all, Joe got some dirty work out of the way but failed to clean up his mess in the end!

PS: you “circle back” if you’re play’n hockey not basketball

Looks like Portland is still connected to Thybulle. This has Oliva written all over it.

I can’t figure out how Dallas could beat our package, given that Morey wants to take as little salary back in the deal as possible…

We also have access to more future picks than Dallas does.

Something tells me Portland will figure out a way to get a deal done.
