    Make it a clean break. I believe that we're setting up to build back better around Dame about as much as I believed Joe when he said the plan was still to build around the core of Dame, CJ and Nurk who had won so many games. It might not be tomorrow, it will likely be on draft night but we're auctioning Dame off before next season.

    Until it happens, I'm counting him. but sure, if he's dealt, maybe we'll have Kelly Oubre at PF and Watford at center. :dunno:

    If we are really trading Nurk to Charlotte; any chance we can get PJ Washington? He has pretty good stats but they are only playing him 24 minutes a game.

    Because trades are the only realistic way to get top talent here. He sure as hell better not be planning on playing the weak-assed FA market this summer to accomplish his rebuild around Dame.

    The Trail Blazers also play the Pelicans twice more this season. Lose to everyone else, beat the Pelicans.

    The Blazers just got a lottery pick and Josh Hart for CJ McCollum? I'm pumped. If you break it down to Hart for Nance (win) and an almost complete salary dump of CJ with a lottery pick this year and a 21 Million TPE, this is a huge move in the right direction. Nobody thought the Blazers would get out of CJs contract almost entirely and get a lottery pick. How this deal can be disliked is beyond me.

    This is a misleading statement.

    Your statement is like saying the Buss family doesn't own the Lakers or Vivek doesn't own the Kings. Yes there are other legal entities or owners involved, as with basically all NBA ownership groups, but those are all legal technicalities for lawsuit protection, tax advantages, shares to minorities, or other owner benefits.

    Jody is the person who get the financial benefits of the Blazers earning and appreciation, as well as having all ultimate decisions on actions of the team. If that's not ownership, then please educate us on what the hell is.
