    I bet we see Wade with a Brandon/TMac type drop off.

    Guys, it's blatantly obvious he's a Wolves fan. (MN IP)

    But his teams sucks so harshly he's posting as a Heat fan.

    Sad and hilarious all at once. Kinda like Farmer Chris!

    And now we have Farmer Damien (he even spelled the name wrong)

    To make it easy on everyone, every Wolves poster you start with 'Farmer'

    Farmer Chris
    Farmer Damien
    Farmer Duane
    Farmer Kahn
    Farmer

    We'll see if they come to regret wasting their amnesty on a player with not too much left on his contract.

    That is hilarious. The Twolves are amnestying a guy, to save them 7 million on the cap. To have enough money to sign a player on an offer sheet that could just be matched by team that has that players rights?

    Thats their big plan? Oooh, you're forcing the Blazers to sign a player...they have the capspace to re-sign and a position they need. Oooh lordy me! Not that!

    Are we sure John Nash isn't running the Twolves? This is comically bad.

    Kahn is like the guy that is going... I'M GOING TO DO IT, I swear I'm going to do it, don't make me because I will. Sign and trade him or else, or else I'm going to do it.

    I will give you guys some information.

    1. Darko was going to get amnestied after last year anyways. He basically quit on the team once Pekovic became the starter. There is nobody else worthy of using the amnesty on otherwise so please do not make yourself look ignorant by making a big deal of it.

    2. 95% of Wolves fans actually are not really that concerned if Portland matches (which I think they will) we just want to get some closure so we can move on if need be.

    3. If Portland matches so be it, a consolation prize for the Wolves is sticking a divisional opponent with a contract they really do not want. I do not think Batum will mope if he has to go back to Portland for $11 million / year so that should not be an issue.

    We all know Batum is not worth $11 million per year, both smart Wolves fans and smart Blazer fans can agree on this point. However, from the Wolves perspective overpaying for Batum was not a big issue because it basically filled the biggest hole left in their roster. If they get Batum, outside of maybe moving Williams, you will see the Wolves sit content with its roster for the next 3 years.... with only small tweeks here and there.

    We will see what happens, I think we will get resolution one way or the other pretty quickly... I think both teams are at the end of their wits with the whole ordeal. I think if we see Portland making some more moves today we know they are going to match, they will try to fill out their roster before matching and going over the cap. If things are quiet for the next day or two, it would lead me to believe they are not going to match and want to leave the Wolves on the hook for as long as they can.

    Common sense though seems to point to Portland matching, if they do not match they are going to look like huge dummies by not taking the 2 draft picks and salary cap relief that was offered.

    So you really think that pissing away 2 first round draft picks and a $5 million salary cap relief is not silly?

    So basically you are saying

    2 first round draft picks and salary cap relief < Nothing

    That is a very strange stance you have taken.

    Portland will either get the package PORTLAND wants from Minnesota, or match the offer Minnesota is eventually able to make once they amnesty and waive people. Batum at 11 million is not a fun thought, but his PER is good, and with a real coach who will utilize him the right way, his on/off court numbers should be better.

    11 million for a 3rd option isn't the end of the world

    Wow! you are a bitter little fellow aren't you?

    Evidently in your blind rage you have missed my point. My point is, I agree, I think the Blazers will match based on the fact they would like huge dummies if they don't match when they could have gotten compensation in a S&T.
