Wizards show interest; Olshey to stay with Trailblazers

How is body breaking down if he played moe last year than he has since 2014?

 

In the last 3 playoff trips he has had he has played 8 of 17 games. That is not great and in two of those games he was clearly not himself. He just hasn't shown recently he can hold up through the season and play in the playoffs. Thats an awful risk to pay a player that makes almost as much as ET/Aminu/Harkless combined.

 

Bro, he's injured near EVERY season. You need to stop sugarcoating it. Seriously.

 

He broke down before the playoffs and it was the most games he had played in 6 years, was also the 3rd most games he has ever played in a season. WE have no recent evidence that he wont be hurt come playoffs which is why I talk of his body breaking down.

 

I'm not sugarcoating shit, I'm stating pure facts.

 

He'd be healthier of he didnt have to carry a trash franchise.

 

If you have a better, more realistic way to add top end talent, I'm all ears.

 

He didn't have to carry those Clipper teams and he still couldn't stay healthy.

 

wait and see what the trade market is. We will have plenty of big expiring contracts and we have our 1st round picks. A griffin trade that is there before the season will still be there at the deadline, very few teams will take a risk on that contract with the very real fear that one of both of those final years could be sub 50 games played years.

 

I know the contract, couldn't pass up the opportunity to get you started, lol.

 

It's exactly what you're doing. You're in here trying to, at best, insinuate he isn't injury prone. You've been doing it for too long.

The entire world knows how injury prone BG is. He was injured his entire rookie season.

It's still a pig no matter how much lipstick you put on it...

 

Im not saying he isnt injury prone, I'm saying its not as bad as people make it out to be. Dont put words in my mouth to try to discredit me because youre opinion is .

 

To be fair, I don’t think his body is breaking down. I think he’s just injury-prone.

 

Shoutout to Neil for showing loyalty and not going to a big market city like DC who apparently tried to get him....all is good in the calm waters of Oregon!

 

Guys who play highlight dunking styles of hoops usually get dinged up a lot...Duncan played until 40 without those issues...he also didn't dunk or play above the rim a lot...big guys land on their feet with a lot more force than a Tim Frazier would

 

Washington probably has the worst situation in the league. That Wall contract is terrible and that roster is the definition of treadmill.

I think every GM would prefer our situation over Washington's.

 

valet parking

 

LOL

Would you trade Meyers, Harkless, and Turner for Wall and the #9 pick?

 

Nope hahaha. That's how bad it is. Maybe if Beal was traded to the Lakers for the 4th pick and they included that as well.

 

No, but literally only because of the timing of the contracts, Those guys are just bad contracts for one more year, Walls a bad contract for the next half decade. If the Blazer bad contracts had 2 years left then maybe?
