    Literally nothing was said here. Just speculation on why Spo might be interested in the job (if he even is).

    I think the only way Spoelstra would come is if he got full power, meaning he’d make decisions in free agency/trades/draft/etc. Olshey would obviously get fired and it’d be an ownership call. I’d be surprised if that happened, but not too much.

    Spo isn't coming here.

    It's Billups. The rest is just to get clicks.

    Chris Bosh and Melo appeared together on an episode of Law & Order SVU so maybe a reunion?

    It was a good episode BTW.

    Brandon Sprague is not a douche and not a clickbait guy. I listen to their show every day. They are Blazers fans but not at all delusional. Sprague had some fun today fantasizing about Spo, and he does have a reliable source, or rather, as he said, someone he "trusts." He was not click baiting. Good guy.

    That being said, Spo would have to be given a Pete Carroll type roll. Not coach/GM, but president of operations/HC, then hires a GM he can work lock-step with.

    I don’t think it will be Billups. No reasoning for that though

    I believe it only because it lines up with what Quick reported about what ownership wants. Olshey is fucked if it happens lol.

    Hoping for the first time that McGowan might have Vulcan's ear and this leads to something big and Olshey is gone. Listen, Jody Allen knows how they did it with the Seahawks and Carroll and the level of success that has come from that. I would not be surprised if they're working independently of Olshey and that would be great, I think. Again, as long as McGowan has their ear. He can make up for firing Mike and Mike :lol:

    I don't want the coach and GM/PoBO being the same guy. That's two different jobs. This kinda model has failed pretty much everywhere it's been tried.
