Danny Morang is more connected than any of you on here x1000000000. He just said that all the deals he heard that got proposed to the Blazers were NONE that he would have done if he was the GM. Take it for what it's worth but its more concrete than the speculation and ideas that you all come up with.

I'm certain you have no idea what "concrete" means.

Either spill the beans or shut the fuck up. Enough of this "I know something you don't" bullshit.

If there is actually something happening maybe he can't until it is announced as to not betray his contacts.

Though he could give better hints, i.e it's not a trade or it has to do with the front office, or the team itself(if it got sold).

If there isn't anything, well that's fucked

Damian was ready from the get go, Scoot wasn't.

We've had just about a month of good play from Scoot, he wasn't ready for major minutes.

Dame was far more polished from the get go than Shaedon was.

Scoot has been ready to start since he actually started for 5 games, led the Blazers to wins, had the best stats from the PG position anyone has all season, then got benched.

Scoot might not have deserved to start last year or the beginning of this season - but he clearly deserves to start today.

Instead he's backing up players that have zero future with this franchise.

I always forget that the Blazers GM can only receive proposals from other teams and isn't permitted to counter or submit proposals of their own. Gotta get that changed in the next CBA.

Well no shit sherlock! I was just repeating what was said.

He also was saying it was gonna be a quiet deadline because of the new cba, and how difficult it was to navigate. And then a bunch of GMs navigated it, and we sat on a half win now, half tank roster.

He also said that Cronin has never lost a single trade ever. So yeah - I'm not expecting him to ever criticize the people he basically works for.

Not Cronin

If it's not Cronin, then it has to be Kolde and Allen. And like I said about Cleveland Browns' GM, when your owner wants to do something really stupid (in Browns' case trade for and sign Watson), then the honorable thing to do is to threaten to resign if they go through with it.

That is how Joe has sounded since he got the job... if it's ownership just pass it on to them. Joe hasn't made one trade that's made this team better besides Jerami and he hasn't fully committed to a rebuild. That's abject failure. If he's being held hostage by this fucking not even ownership group... they aren't owners... our team isn't owned... we are part of a trust, instructed to be dissolved and donated to charity. Fuck our situation!

Now, I either hope for the best tank ever or a bunch of really fun games for the rest of the season because I love this team and I'm not going to quite following them but fuck whoever is keeping us aimed at mediocrity.

Its a joke that Cronin said we were building the team around Scoot and Sharpe.

How do you build a franchise around two players if you have Five guys playing in front of them.

Can you imagine if we had kept Raymond Felton as our starting PG and stuck Dame on the bench for years?

"All three win now players" when he said that, I told me something about is ability to evaluate young players. Or, he just likes to juice things up with crazy comments.

He's ready *because* he was coming off the bench and wasn't playing well.

He's playing like we wish he would have been at the start of last season.

Maybe some of you guys should take time off from watching the team, because you guys are always pissed off about something and have a massively inflated sense of your basketball know how

Yeah ownership is putting to kibosh on tanking. They therefore must believe they have a contender on their hands

I wonder if they realize how much it is going to take to really compete with OKC and Spurs over the next ten years.
 
Blazers fave move, stand pat! Get ready for an 83 game season!! Winning vibes are real!!! #RipCity

Yeah, the Toumani trade did nothing for the team, nor did the Deni trade.

Just can't take you seriously if that's actually what you believe

He heard my ass. Nobody heard anything after the 9 of 10 streak. Fools gold.

How do we know what he says is not 100% speculation?

I think most of us Blazer fans have taken plenty of time off from watching this team the last 4 years. Least I've ever watched the Blazers in my lifetime.

Now we have that to look forward to the last half of the season again - except without the chance of getting a top pick in a loaded draft.

Maybe that's exciting for you? Congrats.
 
Alright, what's done is done. It is a deadline. Nothing can be done now. Let's hope for fun basketball and either somehow miraculously making the playoffs or pulling off the best post all star tank in league history.

Go Blazers!!!

Marang can kiss my ass.

He pretends to be a neutral beat reporter but is the franchises biggest apologist. He never even has the slightest criticism of the team.

He moves the goalposts all the time so that he's not "wrong". It's bullshit.
