    Paul hasn't done shit, and that big three isn't nearly good enough to beat the Warriors.

    I don't even see how they fit together. Morey is on the opposite end of the dork spectrum. Hinkie had a plan. Morey just tries to get every available "star" without really ever considering how they'd fit on the court.

    Trader bob was kinda the same way. Seemed to get us the closest we've been in a long time.

    Nah, Bob had very specific types of players he would go after. Not just anyone. Morey seems to be trying to find anyone who needs to have the ball in their hands.

    I can't find the tweet but didn't Chris Haynes say that Melo would come to Portland if the opportunity arose?

    Yeah. I think Melo still ends up with Houston. But I love that Olshey is aiming for the cheap seats. It is catching a lot of people off guard. So I say, "Hell Yeah!"

    Houston fans are salty because they know their assets suck ass.

    It doesn't seem like anyone wants to help Houston.

    It is a good opportunity to get rid of some bad contracts. Worst case scenario we fail as a team anyway, he wants out and we sign and trade him next summer to another team as he ll decline his player option.

    I don't see any team wanting to help Houston. Could be wrong though. Would love for Portland to win this one but not giving my hopes up

    FTFY.

    Make the bench all defensive. They can hold down the scoring of their opponents until the starters can come back and continue bombing away on offense to win.

    I love living in NYC too but I would move to Portland to work for Blazers if they offered me a job.

    Exactly. If we can do Beibs, Turner or crabbe, and Harkless... I'll hate losing Harkless, but long term that helps us out a lot.

    Being a big dog doesn't mean much if you don't eat.

    I'm glad we Neil doesnt want Houston's trash, that's the most important thing at the moment.

    However, i don't see Carmelo waiving his clause so he can get shipped to a place where his wife doesn't want to go to or to a place without his banana boat buddies.
