    I'll say again, if there's a day when Dame gone, while CJ & Olshey remain, it will be the last day I'm a Blazer fan

    "You play minutes without Ben, right, during the game, and so I think we're equipped for that, and we're ready to do that," Rivers said Wednesday. "Obviously, we did it again tonight. Do you want to do that is a better question and the answer would be no, but when Ben makes them, we get to keep him in, and when he doesn't, we can't. That's just the way it is."

    I thought that was big negative to me about Simmons when he came out of college. He would refused to shoot 16 feet or more and that's the same as to day. So he hasn't improved his game offensely since he got draft. To me I would look for different package without Simmons in it.

    Allows teams to sag off and clog the lane. It’s not like the Sixers have too many shooters to spread the floor.

    Weird stuff happening in Dallas. Not far from being a legit contender. Lots of young talent. Boom, just like that the guy who assembled the roster and the coach to bring them their only title gone in a day period.

    Applies equally to Stotts. I actually wouldn't be at all surprised to see Stotts hired in Dallas now.

    Applies equally to Stotts? What fanbase of a winning team do you see excited about Stotts?
    He wasn’t immediately connected to any top job, like the Celtics.
    Stotts sucks.

    If Dame demanded a trade then I would see that as a good package. But as of now, Portland for sure says no (mainly because Olshey would and should be terrified of trading Dame otherwise).

    That would be a great start on rebuilding for the Blazers, and I'd root like hell for that Sixers team.
