    Kinda feels like teams are over bidding for a one year rental. NY is going to cash in with some team.

    Anthony Morrow is going to be our biggest acquisition this off season and we're going to like it!

    Kinda disappointing that the best case scenario is that we are the, "Well... I guess so" option. I imagine his reception at Moda will be interesting...

    Joke will be on us when he goes to OKC or the Cavs and plays out of his mind

    Motivates them to do what? leave? because they can't get others to help. Imagine if Nurk played here like he did in Denver, that shit would of never happened. Was luck. Nobody wants to come here and it's just frustrating but a reality for blazer fans. Luckily Dame and CJ were drafted.

    I have been the biggest proponent of Melo to the Blazers... but man, he finally expands his list and Portland not on it... after all of Dame and CJ's recruiting efforts. Disappointing is an understatement.

    That's what I mean, it's one thing if we were on the list but he didn't actually end up coming here but we just weren't on the list after hardcore recruiting from our two stars, it's just sad

    So if neil loses out to okc TWICE for high quality trade candidates does that mean he is just an average GM? He's not bad but at the end of the day he cant convince anyone we're worth a damn except Paul Allen.

    Melo knows if Portland is on his list the Knicks will just pull the trigger. Neither Cleveland or OKC will get Melo and he knows that. It's just more smoke.

    In theory, Westbrook/PG13 is better than Dame/CJ...... but they also have no assets to trade. They have no bench.

    Unfortunately I think they too will break at some point. Why would you want to spend your career on a perennial 7 seed when year after year all teams around you are getting better. Fuck man, the lakers are going to lap us again for the second time. Shit is predictable and tiresome. It's getting g really hard to keep giving my time, money and emotions.

    Btw it's hilarious how all these journalists piggyback off of Woj, like they were sitting on all this info. It's a joke.

    Of course not, which means Melo won't go to CLE, because they have absolutely 0 assets outside of that.

    What is Neil supposed to do when one GM hates his team, and the other GM can only trade the player to teams that the player approves of?
