That’s too bad LMA isn’t coming back. Nurkic sucks. Never healthy and completely unreliable. I doubt he makes it to the end of the season without another injury..
This buyout and sign for the minimum bullshit should be regulated if it’s just gonna be former all stars ring chasing every year..it’s anti-competition
Jason Quick - “LMA will not sign with the Blazers because of a lesser role”. Then he signed with the Nets lol
It's funny that people thought he was ever going to come back to Portland. Don't know why anyone believed anything he says. He's such a phony
If we didn’t have Melo I could totally see him in the Melo role. But at this point I would rather have Melo.
If the Blazers were able to trade for Harden (assuming the deal for CJ was ever on the table), how many of these ‘ring-chasers’ would be coming to Portland right now?
None... In general, ring chasers go to rosters where the focus of the GM was to obtain 2-3 all-nba players with the understanding it would mean minimal depth. Our strategy is to have 1 all-nba player and 9 solid players around him. This strategy is going to put us at a major disadvantage in the buyout market as we won't have an obvious role for them to fill.
