    Yeah, we'll get a big TPE probably the size of Larry's contract. I sincerely doubt we use it. Just imagine that someone offers Ant over 20M and we don't match.

    Look what we got for everyone else. They will dump Dame for role players and expiring contracts to sell the team.

    NOP won that one. Cronin is 0-2. Pels gave up really nothing other than a pick for Nance and CJ.

    Im think he signed off on these recent moves and more to come. Im sure Joe, Dame & Chauncey know what the plan is for at least 2-3 years.

    Why? It won't be worth as much.

    13 players on the Blazers roster are now 6'6" and under. No problem with rebuilding. We have the Portland City Rec League title on lockdown!

    At this point, why would we? We don't seem to care about building a contender, even 3-5 years from now.

    New owners want no commitments and a low payroll. Value is team ownership, not the players.

    If we trade Dame the team is totally gonna be moved.

    As long as he isn't waived that's fine.

    Sell what team? There is a salary floor. We can't do what the Pittsburgh Pirates did for like a decade and just refuse to spend more than 20M on our squad and collect the TV revenue for a huge profit. Shit doesn't work that way. We have definitely decreased the value of this team in the last four days... no by much but any prospective owner is going to want a watchable team for their 2 billion dollars.
