    Neil's not done?

    "We are going to be active, we’re always going to be active,” said Olshey. “We still have $23 million in cap room. There are very few teams that have that level of cap room at this point. We’re going to continue to try and build the roster, acquire assets. Any time there’s ever an opportunity to add a really good young player like Moe, we’re going to look to be opportunistic. That’s just where we are right now. We could have gone the other way. Absent LaMarcus Aldridge, that group was not going to be good enough. We judge ourselves by high standards and if we can’t compete at the highest level then we needed to go in another direction.”

    I think NeO has one more move in him this summer. Say in about 3 weeks.

    Perhaps 6 weeks (after 8/25) might be more likely.

    A bright side to that is that the Blazers will be forced to execute team basketball.
