    Ending up with Mirotic and Hood would be a disappointing deadline but I guess we've had more disappointing deadlines in the past. If that's it, I'm ready to move on from Olshey. I'm not the Neil hater that a lot of others are but he needs to finally take a big swing and take us out of our comfort zones if we plan on anything more than we are now. Dario Saric would satisfy. As would Blake Griffin. I could care less about future late 1st rounders. Even if we have to give up multiple picks I'd be down.

    The face behind the hand is actually scarier than the one that's superimposed.

    You know that saying random things on a message board is not the same as reality, right? Pretty sure that Olshey would help pack CJ’s stuff and give him a ride to the airport if he was the key to getting AD in a Blazers uniform this year. AD in Portland = a nice deep playoff run. CJ here and the team the same as it is now likely = a first round loss and Olshey looking for a new job.

    Pelicans waiting for LA to add a third first round pick; then I think they'll do the deal.

    Given how active CLE has been I am surprised Kevin Love's name hasn't been heard, seems a guy that they should easily move

    We? That word is reserved for fans that route for the Blazers.

    Once again, you show your true colors of not being a Blazer fan. Why do you hang out in a Blazer forum? I'm sure Utah would love to have you.

    My favorite player by far. Dame is a close second.

    Are you insinuating that Neil wouldn't entertain trading everybody sans Dame & Nurk for AD?

    If you are.... C'mon bruh...

    Dell Demps tommorow just before the deadline...

    Magic Johnson's phone rings. He sees it is DD and gets excited. He answers

    Magic: Hello


    Dell: Hey, it's Dell. I thought over your offer...

    Magic: Yes

    Dell: I decided to

    Magic YES

    Dell: ...take the offer

    Magic: YES!!!!

    Dell: from Portland

    Magic: WHAT?...but...

    Dell: Just thought I would tell you before you heard it elsewhere

    Olshey thinks he can put me off by waiting a whole 'nother day before he makes a trade. Fuck him. I can always jack Red Bulls all night and listen to backed up episodes of Dunc'd On and Open Floor!

    Me too. Have a signed Dame Jersey. Need a Nurk one but they can be hard to find from a legit authenticator.

    I would gladly take either of the Morris brothers. They always play well against Portland and, even more importantly, they bring a bit of that ‘nasty’ this team is lacking.
