Well, one thing we can all agree on is that the title to this thread is obviously incorrect for the next few months. Trading CJ is no longer...
So, there's still hope for a return? (Visualizing @Mediocre Man 's head exploding)
Six games in nine days with about half a roster probably had something to do with it. The Blazers looked really slow against both the Pelicans and...
Wow. I know you’re obsessed with hating and trading CJ, but that’s just an off the charts ridiculous comparison.
The top 40 players are getting 33 or more minutes. Good players generally play more.
Well, whatever meager incentive there was to watch the ASG just limped away.
Thanks. Having watched that, I think you’re probably right that the only way they sign a buyout guy is if there’s an injury.
I didn't see the link to the interview. When did he post it?
ALL I am trying to suggest is that things MAY change if the Blazers make the playoffs and Olshey sees a chance to add a good player at not too much...
Depends on when the player signs. Kanter signed on Feb. 21st last year. There was about 1/3 of the season left. If Olshey signs someone in March, the...
That sounds pretty close to correct, except for the March 1 date. I believe that's the last date for a player to be WAIVED and still qualify for the...
The team salary implications of the buyout player are PRO-RATED, if I'm understanding this correctly: http://www.cbafaq.com/salarycap.htm#Q28 If...
Maybe I don't understand the CBA on this correctly, but it looks to me like cutting Skal saved $2.8M in luxury tax on his contract. Luxury tax is...
I'm not trying to justify anything. I don't see anything to justify. You seem to see this as some huge loss for the team. I don't see it that way for...
Only Olshey knows exactly what he meant when he answered that question If the Blazers sign a waived player using the veteran's minimum, the amount of...
That's a bit harsh, don't you think? If he can't play this season and he doesn't fit with Olshey's plans at the 4 or 5 for next season, how is it...
Okay. I guess I misunderstood.
I don't agree on the Labissier part of your statement. I think he's pretty much toast for this season, so trading him cost zero as far as competing...
I'd say that the 3 is more likely than the 4. I think Olshey is a real believer in Zach and isn't going to give up on that twin-towers look until he...
I think that the team is committed to seeing if the roster that Olshey has assembled is capable of contending. Frankly, I don't expect a lot of...
