When people can't make a valid point, they have to be dramatic to make their point look more on target.
I love Millsap's game but we don't need to pay someone that much money for 15 minutes a game. He won't stay happy and we can't trade Joel because we need him. Millsap can not play center and IMO it isn't good enough to have LMA play backup center. Plus we have to see if Oden can stay out of foul trouble and healthy first. I'm not as huge Hinrich fan but he is a lot better then Blake and we would be much better off if we ended up with Hinrich then Millsap. Some of you people are something else. You get upset we are not doing anything and when we have a chance to improve the team you still get upset. I think some of you think we are going to get CP3 or Lebron lol. What a bunch of whiners!
He might play more but then LMA, Oden or Joel would have to play less. I don't want to see Oden play less he needs to develop. I also don't want LMA to play less either. Unless we trade LMA we don't need to pay someone 10 million a year to be a backup PF when you can get Bass who is perfect for a backup PF at half that price.
The mixum-like reactions are over the top, I agree. But it's the people who have been bummed by having not made a move to improve our roster yet who are sometimes getting burned at the stake for saying so, and the response being is that "Be patient", "KP will get things done", "You whiners are so stupid" and etc. KP has one of the hardest jobs in the sports, and not every move he'll make will be gold. And he won't get everything he wants. Our offseason hasn't exactly gone to Plan A, and right now, I'd just be happy to see Roy and Aldridge sign their extensions and get what they want.
I see that. What the hell is KP thinking. I use to think KP could do no wrong but I have almost given up on him. After letting the Rlec go for nothing which at the time I thought maybe he was right. Now we are almost the only team not improving. If this rumor is correct about Millsap I have competely given up any hope KP is even remotely a good GM. If I was PA I would fire him if we sign Millsap for that much money and he is our backup PF. What a joke!
But Alex, most of them don't say, "I'm bummed we haven't made a move YET." They are saying "KP is an idiot", "The rich get richer, while the pritch get pritcher.", "This is the worst off-season every." They remind me of the kid who has parents that love them and have done so many good things for them, but one day they don't let them get ice cream with their friends and the kid yells, "you're the worst parents ever!" Except, that's something a child does, not adults. I mean, the season is so far away, and something good still can happen, and a move of some-sort will likely happen. It's almost as if people expect the Blazers to speed up and make a move to satisfy their instant gratification needs.
sometimes its better to be a TIMBERS Fan.....this much be Karma for killing the Beavers Memorial Stadium,.,,,,
