    False? Sure. Go back and read it.
    Are you saying that nobody has said the same thing about 1M or Zack? Or are you saying Tmac is all knowledgeable? Are you saying Morant isn't good or 20 years old? Are are you saying Lillard isn't putting up better numbers now?
    Truly are you trying to pick the 4 rebounds that is actually 3.5 over 3.1 rebounds a game for Lillard? Minutes played? Is that what you got really?
    Would you like to compare rosters they played with?
    How about we wait until the end of the season and see if he plays all 82 games?
    It's stupid shit like this that is just fucking tiring about clowns on this site. Minutes played? Give me a break.

    When you say something wrong don't double down when you get called out on it. You sound like you're trying your best to discredit him.

    When you nit pick the very smallest minute point of a comment and miss the seven other real points and the overall meaning of a post don't try to double down and discredit anyone at all then.
    Nice day sir.

    Must be nice being Evan Turner. Demoted to 3rd back up PG, not even playing and making tons of money

    Posing a question that might get me shot here...

    Who would be OK if we re-signed ET in the summer at a $3-$5m contract? I sort of miss a lot of what he brings. He was an under-rated defender for the wing.

    T-wolves are essentially the Blazers from a couple few years ago. Weird. That team is a trainwreck. They should blow it up and get rid of KAT, RCo, et al

    Christ Almighty: I just looked at Atlanta and they were paying the trio of Chandler Parsons, Evan Turner and Allen Crabbe SIXTY THREE MILLION DOLLARS this season.

    I'm okay with it. Might not have to wait that long - they'll probably waive him after the trade deadline.

    It's weird that I'm happy for a millionaire #1 pick, but I am. Glad Fultz has turned it around.

    Olshey had a hand in creating all three of those contracts.

    He signed both ET & Crabbe. He also heavily pursued Parsons, which helped Memphis max him out.

    what's fucked up about that is that in July, 2016 Portland owned two of those contracts and if Olshey would have had his way, Portland would have owned Parson's contract instead of Turner's.

    it's crazy that Parsons was the first choice that summer. Since he signed that 4-year/24M-year contract, he's played in 100 games, averaging 7 points and 3 rebounds, and has missed over 190 games. Holy shit....the Blazers really dodged an Olshey bullet there

    been there, done that.

    maybe for a vet minimum, but not more. The Blazers may only have one of the MLE's to use this summer...anywhere from 5M to 10M. Using half of whatever exception they have on Turner would be dumb, IMO. And hard-capping themselves for Turner would be even dumber

    The Warriors young kids are getting better. Next year they’ll be back strong.
