    I guess if they were going to keep Pressey instead of Montero then you might as well look at this guy instead of Pressey. I still don't think we need another PG after Dame, CJ and Frazier though personally. Dame is only going to be on the bench 12 mins a game.

    Why would we add another point guard? This wouldn't really make any sense and this article is just based on him saying in June that his agent told him we showed interest in him..

    Not.

    Swayed.

    ha! Love this comment
    "
    Oh, man, he says he has a 44 inch vertical!
    We could be the only team with two nearly useless players who can jump that high!

    Once again, they knew montero wasn't ready when they signed him. I doubt anything has changed there. If anyone gets cut for Boatright it'll be Frazier.

    They signed him in July to see if he would make progress in 4 months. Reason contract was nonguaranteed. All reports are he's still way over his head. If I were Neil Id cut him.

    I doubt that.

    As for his contract:

    RealGM.com reported that the Blazers signed Montero to a multi-year deal, but how much was guaranteed was not quite clear. According to Pedro Pablo Perez–who helped bring Montero to the United States per sources–on an interview with ESPN Radio show “Cancha Entera” in the Domincan Republic, Montero is guaranteed $600,000 K in a 3-year deal that could be worth up to 2.3 million. The rest of the deal after the first year will depend on whether the Blazers hold on to him the next few years.

    FTFY.

    He would be a solid Delly-type in the role you describe.... in a few years.... on a playoff team.

    Maybe Neil feels like he can use this guy in a trade.

    Your information is wrong; see the stickied salary thread. He was only guaranteed $100k.

    Did you call his agent or handler a liar?

    The figures I have and from the stickied thread are from basketball insiders which is run by Eric Pincus a former nets executive and regarded as the most accurate source for NBA salary data.

    The only way I can see the Blazers going after Boatright is if they let Pressey and Frazier go. I can't see them giving up on Montero so quickly. He's a long (long, long) term project. They had to know that when they signed him.
