    I think Casey is a bit confused. We needed a roster spot to convert Watford's two-way.



    Now we can always bring in another two-way.

    I would like DSJ to re-sign in the summer if possible.

    I think Casey is confused on the Watford deal.

    might

    I'm still thinking that Bledsoe probably won't play unless Dame is returning. But if the Blazers are making a decision to go for play-in seeding, Bledsoe could be 'activated'

    getting Watford for 1.8M/year on a 4 year deal is great for Portland. Good for him

    if I had been paid $150,000 month in my early twenties, the number of stupid decisions I would have made would have been legion

    In his last game against the Lakers, he had 11 assists and six steals in barely 20 minutes.
    I refuse to believe there isn't a rotational spot for him somewhere.

    I like him too. But I think he can get more money elsewhere. I see a 3 guard lineup with Dame, Ant, and Hart.
    No idea how Keon will look at PG but I bet we go with someone like that to be the 3rd PG.

    he’ll get a contract somewhere for sure. Question is will it be more than the minimum?

    But they still have Blevins so all is well.

    Blevins is SUPER cheap for what he is. Which is Dame loyalty points.

    On January 1st, Bledsoe scored 27 points in the Clipper victory in Brooklyn against a Nets team that had James Harden and Kevin Durant.

    And he seems to be improving (although you could argue that it would be hard not to...)

    Watford reminds me of Brian Grant at times. Has a good motor and knows how to block out down low.

    Eric Bledsoe was an NBA all defensive first team member in 2019 and an all defensive second team member in 2020.

    He's always been a very solid player and Ive seen him numerous times over the years go off on us. Injuries have been his issue plus he isn't as fast.
    He can still shoot ok.

    You do have a point.
    I wonder if he’s also some kind of super soldier bodyguard type as well?
    You know safety on the bench.
