    If this is true, KP is in deed an idiot. But if this is not true then everyone calling him an idiot because of a internet post, is the true moron. We will all see.

    Regardless of the source being truthful or deceitful, this is still not exactly the kind of thing you want leaking into the media.

    Besides, I never said KP was getting bamboozled, I just said it seems like there's either a play by some agent to put pressure on KP or the rumor is actually true that there is a snag ... my gut tells me that there probably is some kind of snag in the negotiations, because I'm having a hard time seeing what specific advantage there is to be gained by an agent or some other league source falsifying some information about an extension and then putting it into the grapevine.

    As for my general frustration with KP and the summer so far, yeah I admit to being pretty underwhelmed by his handling of the off-season so far, and this does add to that snowballing feeling of disappointment, I'm not going to duck it or apologize for feeling that way.

    Quick reporting that the Blazers have a "toxic" contract plan to sign Milsap gets 6 pages of analysis of that move

    Quick reporting that the Blazers are playing hard ball with Roy gets 3 pages of saying you can't believe what Quick says

    Wait tho. A 4-year max deal at $57m is better than 5-year $50m, right. There's no disrespect there.

    Because one sounds logical and the other sounds like either Quick or Pritchard has had their brain replaced by radioactive sludge.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I wasn't asking for apology. I just think you're spinning things in the harshest light possible, perhaps unconsciously. All your posts lately have been, "The way I interpret this is that Pritchard is incompetent. Damn." As if the previous several seasons of building possibly the worst roster in the league into the arguably the best (factoring in future) has invested Pritchard with zero credibility at all.

    As for "bamboozled"...it seemed like a reasonable synonym for "completely outmaneuvered."

    If you told me to put my money one which is more likely to happen.

    1) We sign Millsap
    2) We extend Roy this summer.

    My money is on #2 ALL DAY.

    Well, 1 page of "you can't believe Quick" and 2 pages of "Pritchard is the dumbest GM in the history of GMs."

    Years matter to me more than $$ when offering All-NBA and All-Star players like Roy a contract. Then again, this report can't possibly be true, so it's all hypothetical.
