    If we trade Dame and Nurk we should free up our cap enough to make an offer to Miles Bridges

    Would you?

    Scoot
    Sharpe
    Grant
    Bridges
    X

    That look like a fun athletic team who could play up tempo

    Not the right fit for culture purposes though.

    Another great athlete to go with Shae and Scoot would be fun.

    Not a culture fit. Even as a player, I’m not that interested in him.

    He was my player comp for Whitmore. I remember thinking to myself prior to the lottery “if the Blazers draft Whitmore I will rage” LOL.

    I would hate it on a culture stand point. Pass.

    Miles’ Bridges should lead him to prison, not Portland!

    Forcing out a guy with strong character and bringing in this guy would be the final straw for me. Good bye Blazers

    We are losing our character guy. To win in the future, we need to consider character first. Miles can ball, but we can't afford his attitude on this team.

    Keep in mind if we trade Dame wevery likely have to take back all or most of his outgoing salary back in other players/contracts, unless a 3rd team with big capspace is involved. It would be unlikely to get any real significant cap relief/space now as that is really not our focus - getting picks/value back is, however depending on the duration of contracts we bring back we would likely develop significant capspace 2-3 years out

    I'd firebomb Cronin's house if this happened.

    Perhaps this is the "denial stage" in the grief process....
