    I really hope we hear details on how that Dame and LMA meeting went when all the dust clears. I think Quick would have a fucking field day with all this info. God damn after LA leaves, they are gonna go crazy writing articles and saying what happened and how LMA felt

    +> This smells of conspiracy and I am all for it if it brings LMA back to scenic Oregon. .

    sure, you will get those stories for a few weeks or so, but then they will move on to try to force another Blazer out of Portland.

    Good article, but he ignores the fact that Wesley did not want to come back on similar terms.

    What a load of crap...Olshey and everyone in the NBA knew this was the most difficult offseason Olshey has faced with double digit free agent...supposed to be an easy summer? What a hack Quick has become..yeah, Neil pissed him off in front of the world but..come on Quick..this is just sensationaist journalism

    My interpretation was that pre-Wes injury, assuming a more succesful end to the season and postseason performance, the strategy was to retain FA's and add a MLE. Instead it turned into overhaul while convincing LMA to stay. That is a much more complex situation.

    Sounds like Lillard is gonna focus on assists next season. Shoot less, pass more.
