    Would like to see Tshiebwe get added He is a ferocious rebounder.

    As far as UDFA, I wouldn't mind the C out of Kentucky or the PF out of Arizona.

    Dont care for any of the rest

    I am being serious right now -- Why the HELL would you recruit if you were Dame after the team lied to you about using the 3rd pick to get him help -- WHY -- If I were him I would tell the Blazers to pound sand and say do something for yourselves ( I would tell them to F off myself )

    HOWEVER -- Knowing Dame he will prolly still go all out to try and help even if they took his trust and pissed on it cause unlike Jody and company he has class and still believes in the team.

    Sanogo would be interesting. I don't think he's Faried-level, but DeJuan Blair (with ACLs)?

    The team has paid him like half a billion dollars, for a player that puts up stats but hasn’t won anything for the city… cry me a river. He is 33… no one in their right mind would mortgage the future to build around a 33 years old… especially with generational talents like Scoot and Sharpe.

    Dame IS a generational talent. There is no guaranty Sharpe or Scoot will be.

    Kris Murray is a girthy 6'8", and Jabari Walker might improve?

    Lots of UDFAs have been signed by other clubs already. Obviously this needs to be done quickly. What's going on?

    I guess we are supposed to refer to him as the 33 year old nobody now.

    No doubt he has asked people to come, like Draymond. Nobody is coming here though.

    Blazers sign Detriot Mercey guard Antoine Davis.

    Apparently one of the best 3-pt shooters in college.

    I don't see that Oscar Tshiebwe has signed anywhere yet. I'd really like to see him here. Would address a HUGE area of need.

    Just a regular FA, but I wouldn't be offended if they took a run at Jaxson Hayes for a lower deal.

    Would depend on bigger moves, obviously, might also depend on how we feel about Badji, AND he's a bit of a screwball, but good size, athleticism, energy, wouldn't need shots and fits what we need in the middle for Chauncey's scheme.

    He's done nothing so far, so that certainly could continue, but if it worked out, he's plenty young enough to help our current dual timeline approach...
