Here we go! As a show of great positive mental attitude, this thread is about how next week we will all decree - IN OLSHEY WE TRUST! .....following a masterful move at the trade deadline! Here’s one to get Neil thinking... We have a trade: CJ, Leonard and Layman to New York for Kevin Knox, Jordan, Matthews and a swap of each team’s #1 picks! For Portland, we acquire our SF of the future (who’s ready now) Matthews can start at the 2 and Jordan will provide depth at C and a defensive stopper through this year’s playoffs. And a coveted top 5 pick in the June draft. Essentially, it gives us Knox and NY’s #1 for CJ. IN OLSHEY WE TRUST! For New York, they add CJ to attract KD and Kyrie! IN OLSHEY WE TRUST! Post your dream scenario for next week! “IN OLSHEY WE TRUST”
First of all, the Knicks can't combine Wes and Jordan with other salaries this season so your trade is invalid. Second of all, they can't get Durant and Kyrie if they have CJ and/or Leonard on their books next year. THE WHOLE FUCKING POINT OF THE TRADE WAS TO CLEAR SALARY AND YOU EXPECT THEM TO JUST ADD IT BACK IN THE NEXT DAY????? For fuck's sake!
That was great!!!! So what you’re saying is you envision OLSHEY pulling off a trade whereby we get rid of eggs and dishes for an iron skillet! I just don’t see an available enforcer PF that we could get for Leonard, Harkless and/or Turner.... This post is for “positive” needle-moving success stories that will be pulled off by Neil next week!! IN OLSHEY WE TRUST!! LOL
This is NOT a bash OLSHEY thread but a “celebration-in-advance” thread! So tell me - what miracle deal might Neil pull out of his hat next week that would have you decree: IN OLSHEY WE TRUST! ???
Just wait until next week! You’ll be joining me in saying: IN OLSHEY WE TRUST! No more talk of “trader Bob” - no! Next week is OLSHEY WEEK and we’ll be dancing in Pioneer Square following the trade deadline
No! No! IN OLSHEY WE TRUST! think positive man. This is not the “Fire N.O. Thread” - it’s the “LOOK WHAT RABBIT THIS GUY PULLED OUT OF HIS HAT” thread! The Knicks / Dallas trade has not yet been made official - just waiting for Neil to bring us in as a third team in the deal! And yes! New York May have the deepest pockets in all of basketball and can and will (finally) build a team with a big 3, no matter the cap penalty to be paid. MSG baby
A bunch of bitch’n goin in within all other threads! It’s tiring man. Time to think positive! Neil will pull off something huge next week! A blockbuster that will keep Dame in Portland forever it will be so exciting! Everyone will be dancing - IN OLSHEY WE TRUST” Long live and prosper in Vulcanland!
.....probably not But what if? If OLSHEY doesn’t come through, well we might as well sell the team to Schultz
Give me Julius Randle and Mirotic for ET, Zach, Stauskas, Baldwin.Mo..whoever they want to tank with A guy I'd dream about pairing with Nurk would be Al Horford...hate aside..Blake Griffin
That would do it!! Listen, we are not going to bring the free agents to Portland - just hasn’t happened. So NEXT WEEK has to be the week that shapes our 2019/20 and beyond! Next week is HUGE!
Let's see if I have the GM speak down... "Let the cake bake." "It's a process." "It's a reload, not a rebuild."
