Hmmmm....I'm not so sure. How old is he? 45?

.......Because the Blazers are so limited in what they can do in free agency, they’ll need to be clever, something GM Neil Olshey is adept at (the signing of Curry, who was injured all of 2017-18, was a example). A real flier possibility: Matthews. Convince Matthews, whose shooting and defense fill real needs, to take a one-season discount contract to return to a fan base that loves him – he is probably the most popular former Blazer who is still active in the NBA.......
 
With Bazemore (or someone better in trade) I don't think there would be a role for Wes.
 
The only type of contract I'd take him on, he'd take as an insult. So, no, wish Wes well, would love to see him retire with the Blazers, but don't think there is any value in chasing him this year.
 
Pretty sure Matthews harbors some ill will to the front office for not even extending an offer last time he was a FA. He's also a guy that holds grudges.
 
Not unless he wants to take the minimum. Rather try and resign the guys we have.
 
Why? I mean, I like Wes. But why? I see no spot for him on this roster. No fit.
