Rumor Chandler Parsons this summer?

Your reputation precedes you.

 

I was OK with Davis, meh with Aminu, intrigued but skeptical about Plumlee, and stoked about Henderson.

Just sayin'.

 

Only because you thought it was his dad.

 

Um... Huh?

 

He's talkin about Gerald Henderson Sr.

 

Way to go out on a limb.

 

OK, lol. Still confused though...

 

The "hot bitches" will go where Chandler will be @!

 

Kent Bazemore is the guy we go after instead of Chandler (he's gonna max from somebody); he's Chandler-ish but more defensive (which I think is a plus actually). IF we were to get Bazemore vs. Chandler, they're similar enough that it wouldn't hurt that much talent-wise & quite possibly, Bazemore might end up to be just as talented as Chandler because they're both good ages/only a yr. apart in age (Bazemore= 25 Chandler= 26). Chandler is the better player between the 2 (that's why he's a max guy) for now... BUT... it's this difference we CAN capitalize on! Both ^ are Neil-type targets but I think we should show Bazemore love & pay the man (he won't b a max contract but I think he'll play like a max player!)!

 

I think it was a joke. Or maybe a friendly needle.

 

Yeah Bazemore would be a good addition. I wonder how much he gets paid per year; $13 million?

As much as that sounds its basically a Wes Matthews priced contract when we got him from Utah with this crazy cap.

 

Oh, I got that it was a joke or friendly needle, I just didn't get the joke, lol. I didn't even remember that Henderson's dad played in the NBA...

 

All blazers fans are attractive to me.

 

if we're gonna throw a max at a SF i think we're going after barnes...not parsons

 

<licks eyebrows> [JoeyTribianiVoice]How YOU doin?[/JoeyTribianiVoice]

 

No on Barnes. He doesn't have the right skills Portland needs.

Against Houston, Boston, & now Toronto everyone who can is selling out trying to stop Dame & CJ - making their lives a living hell. The defending teams are having a varied degree of success doing so - but what Portland needs is someone who can score for their-selves at the SF position. Henderson is the best option we have... and he is only 'OK' at doing it. Aminu has his place, but it's not an attacking SF. Crabbe & Mo just don't have those ball handling skills.

Parsons is the best option that we realistically can get.

 

Maybe I'm crazy but Chandler Parsons for 20MM+ a year? That sounds fucking stupid. What am I missing?

 

Portland will probably have to offer the max, or near the max to get Parsons, Horford or Derozen

 

Desperation.

Olshey never appears desperate though.
