    Which one of our recent acquisitions will make their previous teams feel remorse for either trading or letting them go in free agency to POR?

    CHA, because Vonleh may turn into something in the next 7 years, and Batum will likely be in Toronto next July.

    Definitely Charlotte once they see Vonleh blow up. Henderson looks good, too.

    Reading CHA forums after summer league, it's clear that a lot of their fans are tense about Vonleh breaking out.

    Nic's Toronto rumors aren't helping either. Cho has to be uneasy

    Nets.

    Can't really explain it - just a feeling Plumlee can and will continue to improve.

    This was definitely my second choice. They potentially might have given up a legit starting C for a guy who can be out of the league after his rookie contract.

    You didn't have the Blazers listed? Just playing devils advocate, but I bet several forum members would choose the blazers. Right MM? Tlong?

    Devil's advocate is one thing, but I was clearly referring to our new acquisitions.

    I did choose them....as a joke of course. I am probably the most excited Blazer fan that we hit the redo button.

    Vonleh probably has the best chance to be very good, so Charlotte has to be the answer

    Part two of this poll can be, which team will most regret signing our players... can save that one for next week to make the most of these awful dog days.

    Do y'all really think Batum is going to stay in CHA? That team is going nowhere fast. He'll bolt for Toronto just like his agent leaked.

    Charlotte is gonna lose big on that deal. Typical Jordan shit...

    I am clearly referring to our acquisitions as well and I bet more than one fan thinks we will be on the losing end of all of these new acquisitions, not the other teams.

    I voted Charlotte but I have the same feeling. He might not end up being flashy but a good smart young center with hops might be harder to replace. If he stays healthy he has another 12 years left in this league.

    I am excited about Vonleh, but it seems like there will a lot more scoring PF's coming into the league that Charlotte could draft next year or the year after that can replace him.

    Honestly, I think Aminu maybe an issue as well. I have a feeling Matthews won't be 100%, a step slower, and may even get hurt again. He is the biggest risk, so losing Aminu for Matthews could bite them in the ass.

    I still voted Charlotte because they fucking suck.

    As much as I love Wes, he simply isn't worth a Max deal. I'm glad he got paid, just not by us.
