    Our remaining cap space won't be enough for him. So who do we renounce in order to make room for him?

    I'm saying I'd love to have him.

    I wouldn't say 8.5 to 10 (which is how much Woj's cap guy says we have) is going to be too little if this goes too much further. Teams' money is drying up pretty quick. Al Jefferson only got 10 MIL (but he probably jumped on an offer too soon) so it is possible.

    Supposedly.

    I agree that we should be targeting him. I don't know why not. Watch him end up back with Golden State.

    Why would you expect the list not to look like that at this point? There are still a couple guys I would take on for sure.

    And LOL at our coaching staff then. They are the ones that started him at PF for far too long this year. So of course writers are going to list him there.

    Woj says Nene signed with Houston. Another center gone.

    Saw it was a 1 yr, 2.9 mil deal.

    Seemingly the only people who would play for Portland for the veteran minimum is posters from this board.

    Hell, I would have taken a one year flyer on Nene for 5 -7 mil. He offers some sort of inside presence, even if it's for just 50 games
