You guys really don't think we can lure a bigger free agent here other than the mentioned? Come on now. Those are second options, I don't think Neil will start the off season off going after the 2nd tier here
No I know. One of the greatest ever but I just don't see it at all. He's at the end of his career, that would be a waste of money on a rental. Not happening
Dirk can still shoot but athletically he just doesn't fit the offense and all the common logic in the world tells me no way in hell this happens or is even a thought on Neil's mind
The Blazers really need a big that can dominant and score at will, say i don't give a fuck I'm getting this basket. Lillard can do that and maybe C.J. but we don't have a big that can do that. Plumlee is nice but he's not that kind player. Don't get me wrong I want him back but what the Blazers really need is a player like Demarcus Cousins or Blake Griffin when healthy. Can Greg Monroe be that guy? We need a big that can bully his way in.
I think Plumlee is a power forward and they need to utilize him like a draymond green because he can be used that way. We need to look for a legit center in the off season whether it's whiteside or whoever.
Hmm...imagine Dirk shooting all the 3s Aminu gets. Or imagine Dirk shooting all those mid range shots that LA got. He's one of the best of all time at the mid range.
Anyone good at photoshop? I want Olshey's head on the body of the Most Interesting Man in the World's body to make memes with. @3RA1N1AC ? Anyone?
Plumlee is just not that type of score at will kind of player though. He's not going to bully his way in.
I don't see Dirk interested in going to another team; he can be a lifer with one organization, an MVP and have a title. In the modern NBA since the merger you can count those on one hand. Kobe, Duncan, Robinson, Bird, and Magic. I expect instead Dallas signs Dwight; just makes to much sense for all involved. If Dirk was available I really don't see any way to have a good defensive unit with him and DameCJ. It's been so valuable having Aminu/Harkless on the best opponents offensive players. Doesn't seem fair to relegate Dirk to a 6th man. We're still a few years from peaking. I'd rather grab a couple young defensive athletes with upside and hope they exceed expectations.
The Blazers need that 1-2 punch and I'm not talking about that 1-2 punch from the guards. They need that 1-2 inside outside punch. That's what the Blazers lack and need if they want to win a championship.
Damn.....I thought it was to sign the S2 forum as the first virtual assistant coach. It's obvious the players listen to us. Aminu was awesome in game 4 after the thrashing he took in here. Let's talk about that Lillard guy and how much he sucks. He'd better bring it to L.A.
