    Like everyone else we've added in the past week, he's an athletic, above-the-rim player with a hard-nosed, blue-collar attitude. Surely you've caught on to the pattern.

    I would remove the keys from Mr. Olshey. I don't believe he knows what he is doing...,

    I just wouldn't allow him to do anymore with this franchise.

    Finally this can end your lust for 38 y/o Ariza.

    Is not like I don't like him as a player, I just don't like the price and how it knocks is out of the Monroe race. I think we could've had him for less. My initial reaction was bad and I posted here too soon.

    I suggested him once. Now we need to find a 3 and D SG or SF that can create, but who's out there that does that?

    Do you see us getting LMA back? I would say things are not looking good right now. So how many players do you see us adding to this team? I am thinking quite a few.
    We had zero SF's on the roster. This is just one player. We still will have money for Tobias Harris if he actually wants to come here over the other 15 teams trying to get him. Aminu has been mentioned to Portland for the last few weeks. For the amount we paid for him I am pretty happy. We had to add a defensive wing

    It doesn't knock us out. You guys all did your math by dividing 30 by 4. The deal actually starts at about 7. Reports came out today that the cap is going to be about 2 mil higher than initially thought. We should have just enough to max Lamarcus and Monroe... Remember Monroe's max is lower than Lamarcus.

    30 year old Ariza who was arguably the Rockets best player in the playoffs this past year.

    Here's my question, who do we go after if Monroe signs elsewhere?

    I have a feeling that we are going to be one of those under-talented, try hard team filled with blue collar players that loses to big market teams.... oops, basically the early eighties all over again.

    Wow, I'm not big on Aminu but I'm a huge Olshey fan. The guy is very good at his job. It's just a very tough job being the GM of a small market like Portland.

    I don't recommend slitting your wrists, but I here LA is nice this time of year.

    It isn't a job, it's a f-ing prison sentence. Wouldn't be surprised if he quits.

    Christ on a crutch, who gives a shit if he's one dimensional, Tony Allen is even more one dimensional, does that hurt his team?

    How can Pacers sign Monta? Do they have cap space?

    Also, hypothetically.... can we sign LMA and Monroe, be at the cap, and then trade for hibbert? (kaman + henderson)
