    Both decent options, both restricted and both likely to be matched by thier prospective teams.....

    Unless POR wants to offer a ludicrous contract to either of them, which would be a mistake IMO....I don't see how POR acquires either one of them....

    Splitter seems more likely to get with a toxic (ie: ridiculous) offer from POR than Pekovic would be, as MIN has threatened to match offers....

    Trolling Minnesota seemed fun last summer but why tie up money knowing they'll be matched?

    Well, cross those two guys off the list. Canzano's track record on predicting Blazers' moves is about 100%...the wrong direction.

    It is currently the lead Headline on http://hoopshype.com/

    Shows you how worthless the headlines are.

    I concur. At the very least I hope you're right. If we have another off season that's largely comprised of watching an RFA get matched and then being disappointed it will be a bummer.

    Splitter sucks. He would be a horrible signing.

    I like "Canzano says" posts. Always good for a laugh, and it gives us a chance to take cheap shots at the blustering baffoon.

    OTOH: Anyone who posts a Canzano link without identifying it as such before hand should receive a lifetime ban. Friends don't let friends increase that douchbag's hit count.

    No, just a credible source is nice, someone from the media with a good track record.

    I made you feel like shit? That's hilarious.
    What has happened to you? 5 or so years ago you used to be a different person/poster. You have become almost like Mixum.

    We'd have to over pay for Splitter to convince him to leave the Spurs. $$ is the only reason someone would leave the Spurs to join the Blazers right now.
