    Much of Canzano's article implies that he is without a doubt a rapist, and he quotes her as saying the same.

    Said Tracy: “Guess I won’t be going to any Blazer games. I’m glad the men who raped me didn’t amount to much because I can’t imagine how hard it is to watch your rapist succeed in life when you’re trying to deal with the fallout.”

    Maybe he took her comment and twisted it for his own agenda, or maybe they know something I don't, but it disgusts me when people act as judge and jury in the media.

    Well, I guess the Blazers are staying in Portland for at least 5 more years.

    I can’t imagine Dame would have let him sign if he really wanted out.

    That makes sense. Go somewhere you have a superstar and figure you working with him gives you the cache' to land other players that can help the team make the next step.

    I've always felt Olshey wasn't a good guy at recognizing the things about Portland that might appeal to some players and identifying those players for us to pursue.

    Nah, he'd be fine off the bench in the right situation. I'm fine with him staying.

    hope some of those fans that promised to stop watching follow thru, makes it easier for me to find seats when I fly up there to watch a game.

    My take was $$$$$


    I’m all for poaching, especially if one of them is Darvin Ham

    “Because he's the coach Portland deserves, but not the one it needs right now. So we'll hunt him on twitter. Because he can take it. Because he's not our hero. He's a silent guardian of defense, a watchful protector of the rim. A good coach.”

    Actually, he gets elevated over Olshey, trades Dame, fires Olshey, and THEN steps down.
