Free Agent Harry Giles to Portland

There's a difference between a C not being able being signed to a minimum and a SF being signed to the Full MLE. Didnt know if you realized that.

 

A+ signing.

 

Yes I understand that thanks. Was just a joke.

 

I wish we were able to sneak a second year team option.

 

BAE still intact

 

I read he'll miss the first couple months....come back late Jan or early Feb but that's if no setbacks occur. I"m just assuming he's going to be out until spring as far as the rotation..it wasn't the Athletic but another article...those injuries take 3-8 months to recover from and he had the surgery in Sept...hopefully Collins is not made of glass.

 

lol, I've literally been waiting for this since Neil's first presser, when HE brought it up.

 

10 Zach Collins
12 Luke Kennard
13 Donovan Mitchell
14 Bam Adebayo
19 John Collins
22 Jarrett Allen
23 OG Anunoby
26 Caleb Swanigan
27 Kyle Kuzma
29 Derrick White
30 Josh Hart
42 Thomas Bryant
43 Isaiah Hartenstein
45 Dillon Brooks

so much winning

 

The one thing I really know about this dude is that he's a really good passer for a big man. 15% assist percentage for his career. Averages 3.5 per 36 minutes.

 

I was being sarcastic. That draft was awful considering who we could have picked over Zach.

 

Melo is Bae. (or whatever the kids say these days)

 

So I just read he's battled knee problems...? Welcome to Portland!

Seems like a great deal for him though, but like others have said it probably means Gabriel is gone which sucks. I really liked his hustle last year.

 

Woj said vet min for Melo. Difference between the two was only like 700k for him.

 

This is the 4th third string Sacramento big man that we are trying out. Hopefully one of them sticks LOL.

 

I was making a bad joke.

I guess I am just not on point today.

 

Not quite. It was awful considering who we could have picked over Caleb.

 

big difference in sample size, but that's encouraging

not sure how much he'll play though

 

Sounds like an even lower risk Michael Porter Jr, in terms of acquisition cost.

Woody Allen alert!

 

I won’t be surprised if the BAE ultimately goes to Melo. With the roster at 14, I could see NO being done for now - NO seems to like to maintain an open spot for flexibility. Barring another trade, anyway...

 

Excuse me? Are we still acting like passing on two all-stars and a few other near all-star level players wouldn't have completely changed the direction of the team (and Dame's prime)? Zach, even on his best days, is not nearly as good as Donovan Mitchell or Bam Adebayo.
