So when we play the Pels, do we want to win and hurt our lottery chances, but increase the odds we get the Pels in the lottery?
Serious question @Natebishop3 : What positive thing about the franchise are you sold on?
Thank you. Top 3 protected makes way more sense! Thought I saw a woj tweet saying it was protected 4-13 and couldn't understand the logic. Where do...
We get their pick if it's top 3 or out of the lottery, correct?
1) You were wrong on my first thought. Nice try! 2) You commenting about me and not about the question says it all. It's ok to take an L on your CJ...
Which is why I asked the question to those who were saying CJ was a near all-star and didn't have a bad contract. Those we two things I was disputing...
[MEDIA] So we gave us a 1st for Nance. We get a 1st back. CJ for Hart and parts.
To some degree, yes. The main reason is that nobody has put together a sound reason why a GM, fighting to make his job permanent would be turning...
I haven't seen the details of the trade, but I've seen the trade partner and the headliner for the other side. It wasn't a near all-star or lottery...
Are those who thought he ws basically an all-star and his contract wasn't that bad, surprised how little we got in return?
That's why I get for not clicking on the aritcle and just quoting a post! Either way, the narrative around here never suggested it was an Olshey...
"he was under a lot of negative pressure [from] negative statements from front-office people" So it was the GM holding him back, not the coach?...
Speaking of which... Is this team worse than last years worst team in Blazer history?
We agree here. So is it harder to find a top 75 all-NBA player in his prime (even if it's the backside) or a competent person to run the front office?
You see that he couldn't cite one example of this being true? There are other writers (who are still employed) out there who have wrote the exact...
I'm of the belief that if you can't build a team around the best player you've ever had, then the problem isn't the player, it's whoever is...
I'm guessing both those would be on the table. I don't agree that decreasing top end talent is our best path to becoming a contender, but I see your...
What's the least you'd be willing to take in return?
I have no clue if he's right or wrong. I guess here's what we KNOW to this point: Cov hasn't been traded to another team There is no way to...
I agree that paying Dame less money would be better for Portland's cap flexibility. If it turns out he wants the max, does that mean you would trade...
