    It’s funny because I know they actively browse this board. So many times a thread would start about a quote from Olshey or a report about a player and like clockwork, the blazers official Twitter, or some local media member would tweet about it half hour later. We should be getting a commission.

    My favorite is when freeman tweets that his “sources” confirmed Wojs report. LOL.

    Marc Berman is fairly reputable. Portland can't offer as much (MLE) as the other teams mentioned, can they?

    Atlanta has space but doubt they would spend on any free agent, let alone Beasley. They’re rebuilding.

    Milwaukee won’t have more $ to offer than Portland unless they choose not to bring back Jabari.

    I’d try and see if we could get Beasley for the bi annual exception first, if that’s even an option. Not a cap expert.

    Question: if Woj doesn’t tweet about Pat and Napier, will we know what the decision was?

    I would expect some news about Layman too. He'll either be cut or he'll agree to move back his guarantee date to end of July.

    Yes. It would hard cap Portland.

    Bringing back Pat but not Napier makes no sense. We have enough SGs.
