    You got him AND $2M in cap space.

    Hibbert is a really big contract for a guy who could only command 25 minutes a game (similar to Plumlee).

    Third highest vert in combine history? Wow. Now can someone get him a good barber?

    And if he takes Rolo's place, you get the difference between whatever Mason makes and Rolo (who wants like 10 million)

    Damn! That actually got me excited.

    He has weird handles on offense, telegraphs every move, but that's a matter of coaching I hope. Could be pretty decent two way player if he sticks.

    It's a youth movement with 2/3rds of our cap to spend. We are trying to compete.

    Connaugton reminds me of KJ McDaniels but has a jump shot. He'll be a steal, and possibly the 3 and D guy that is drafted way to low. (Happens almost every year).

    We're setting ourselves up for a head start on a rebuild while putting ourselves in positon to contend depending on what happens in free agency. We're also getting wayyyyyy more athletic. Vonleh, Connaughton, Henderson, Plumlee. And we set ourselves up for major cap space. I think Olshey is in the middle of a genius plan right now, contrary to what most of yall think.

    I always like the way you think mags...we do have a shit ton of cap space..I haven't watched a lot of Mason Plumlee maybe he's the next Marc Gasol?

    I said the other day that nothing could push me from being a Blazers fan. The Blazers have decided to test that by acquiring as many Duke players as possible.

    Plumlee is talented and has a high motor..hustle guy. He made team USA on his skillset. Doesn't cost a fortune

    I think he would be a good asset to keep. Athletic centers are usually keeper.

    The most accurate player evaluater, NBA 2k15, has Plumlee at a 79, better than Rolo's 77.
