    I had 4 wishes for offseason. Get rid of Evan Turner and get rid of chief, my eyes could not phantom another year with them in blazers uniform. Chief and turner were awful now Tarry scotts can no longer play them.
    My other 2 wishes were resign Hood accomlished. And resign kanter. Now at least 3 out of 4 came true for now

    Wish the best to him. Always played hard. Sounds like a solid deal for him.

    Underrated in what way? If anything, his contributions on defense and rebounding were overrated. And his offensive contribution was obviously piss poor.

    I thought my post was fairly clear. Stotts put him in a position where he spent too much time and was out of his league, so fans hated him, but he made some solid contributions. Inconsistent as fuck, for sure.

    Fair. I probably wouldn't have minded him for 15 minutes a game. He did try, just didn't have the right tools.

    He helped get us through the great shakeup of 2015, but I'm happy to move on.

    Too much time on the floor? He seldom played over 30 minutes and averaged about 20 mpg while he was in Portland.

    What are you talking about? He averaged 28.5, 29.1, 30.0 and 28.3 minutes a game in his 4 seasons with us.

    Whatever he played, it was too many.

    By the way... it took two second to look up that his lowest MPG in Portland was this year at 28.3. His high was 30. So, check ya facts, FAMS!

    I found Aminu to both be incredibly likeable and incredibly frustrating. Wish we could have him as a back up 3/4, but I wish him well!

    I love Chief, happy for him that he got paid. Never got the hate for him and hopeful we upgrade and as much as i liked him, i'm not sad that he's gone. He did go hard but it doesn't matter. Vanished too often.
