Cousins and Len gone. Whiteside still available. TBH, I bet Whiteside has a deal in place with either Sacramento or Charlotte that will probably be announced after one of the Bogdonavic/Hayward deals are final and done with.
Kind of funny that Hassan seems to receive little interest and not by good teams. His stats couldn't be more empty.
Hassan finally removed all mentions of being a Blazers on his IG. Changed his photo to one of him holding his hand to his head like a phone. Guess we'll find out where he lands today. My money is on Charlotte.
Yet we seem excited to get 2 players that their former teams weren't interested in and no other teams seemed to have an interest in getting. DJJ from a winning team and Giles from a losing team.
It's a seems a pretty sure bet that when you get a player from another team that they weren't interested in keeping them unless you just outbid them or they were unhappy...that's most of free agency beyond the high price tag allstars...Mo Harkless was buried on a bench and Melo was out of the league.....I don't see former circumstances always having an impact
the National consensus seems to contradict the narrative you seem pretty intent on pushing when it comes to Portland’s signings, specifically Jones.
Yeah that's the thing with DJJ, he was buried on the bench in Miami. Miami may have made on offer lower than ours, say 6 million a season for a few years or equal to ours with no option but we told him he'd have a chance to start and to start on a team that many expect to win some playoff games. @TBpup I would say characterizing him as someone no one wanted is crazy, he just said that he had multiple offers and he chose this one because we said he could start at the three. I bet some bad teams were about on par with our offer, I bet some good teams were a little lower or wouldn't give him the player option. My assumption has more credibility since everyone around the league is praising the move and because I take the guy at his word that he had multiple offers on the table.
