Unfortunately, you are correct on both of these statements. :dry: Ultimately that is the root cause of all our frustrations. I guess we call all...
I think you are glossing over two important points here. 1) You correctly identified that "Olshey's missmanagement" of the payroll & drafting has...
He did that all on his own....
What makes you think that this time will be any different than all the other times before?
Doesn't have to be the first offer. Just an offer that is aggressive from the get go.
It doesn't appear that they have given any weight to where the pick was taken. Missing on the #10 pick hurts a lot more than missing on the #50...
Plausible? Yes - completely agree. Probable? Meh... not likely. Sometimes it takes a player to be in the right situation & under the right coach...
The S&T is not an option, as it would hard cap Portland making it impossible to get both Demar & Norm under contract.
If it were clearly the best deal on the table? Most definitely. The issue is determining what the 'best deal' actually is. If the deals are...
Nope. Not allowed. If the team is hard capped - there is a hard line there. No exceptions.
Swap CJ out for Bradley Beal (with Siakam going to DC) & I think your proposal here makes a lot of sense.
If so, that is a great Ben Simmons trade. Portland will be sitting on the sideline yet again.
Nope. Not a good enough player.
He's been holding out for 5+years now (and counting)....
That wouldn't be a bad move. I liked having Hoodie on the team. He lost a lot with the injury, but with this being his 2nd season back - there's...
That seems to be the impasse right there. Over Neil's tenure, I'm not sure I would ever call his leadership 'well planned'. I don't disagree...
And we're still not a contender.... What's your point?
Unless in Neils arrogance, he's convinced himself that the 'roster is not the issue'... I'd be betting on that scenario. I wouldn't be surprised...
Someone is buying it.... and unfortunately he's the guy in charge right now. I'm definitely a 'numbers guy' - but sometimes you have to take a...
These emojis seem to fit the progression of Neils tenure. :beatinto: :banghead2: :beatinto: :beatinto: :banghead2: :banghead: :banghead:...
