    Okay but were talking the real world here. Dame doesn't dictate the lineup, who replaces who, etc.

    This seems like a red herring response. Everyone knows who is replacing Dame…

    Well, if we want to replace a small shooting guard with another small shooting guard, Simons is the answer.

    The season, Blazer fans are going to see a lot of things either we've never seen before (Scoot) or things we haven't seen in a long time.

    Something about Brogdon gives me Andre Miller vibes. I loved Dre when he was a “Blazers”. Brogdon is definitely more versatile as he can effectively play either guard position, is probably a better shooter overall (Dre was solid mid-range), better defender, and has more size at 6’5”. At this point I trust Cronin but I wouldn’t mind keeping Brogdon around as a vet.

    I really think people need to pump the breaks on Brogdon. I haven’t heard great things about his character in the locker room. He sounds like a malcontent a little bit. Dude won 6th man of the year and they tried to dump him for very little.

    Because he wanted a shot at the starting PG job. He wasn't going to be allowed a chance.

    I didn’t hear great things about him in Indy either.

    They dumped him for another player who plays his position.

    He still may be a malcontent, but I doubt he will be with the Blazers.

    Let's root for him to increase his trade value.

    No I mean they tried to dump him to LAC for Morris and a late pick.

    Sounds like the the type of attitude that does not like to lose. Stresses defense. Sounds like a coach. I am liking him more and more as a much-needed leader

    Could Toumani Camara be our Herb Jones?
