    I think Charlotte only has 14 roster spots filled & they are well below the tax line.

    I wonder if Portland can combine this with the Knick trade & route both Svi & Arcidacono to Charlotte. Then Portland would not have to cut GBIII.

    I didn't say franchise history. See..... once again you're making shit up! I said "of my lifetime" and I still think that was the worst TEAM I have ever seen. Just selfish play. Bunch of gunners. I hated watching them.

    GBIII is at the door anyway. But, either way it's a dude not going to play.

    Yup, I said yesterday I wouldn't be surprised if we traded the pick today. I figured that's probably what was being sent out before the terms were made public.

    I like this, but if people didn't like Josh Hart not shooting...

    In general, wouldn't it be nice if we could get WHOLE players instead of half-players? I mean, combine Cam Reddish and Thybulle into one player and...well, we wouldn't've been able to acquire THAT player, I guess.

    Good Lord. Thybulle averages about 3 points and 2 rebounds. Another player off the scrap heap.

    Reddish and Thybulle both can’t score. But great moves anyway!

    So the Blazers facilitate sending the guy I wanted (McDaniels) to Philly? Just great. I'm going to Winco.

    Is Winco the place people go to now that they are disappointed?

    In my days it used to be a bar.

    That's what they do. They facilitate moving the type of guys we should be getting and get a lesser player in return.

    Bench has no proven shooters. These changes are lateral at best. But what are you gonna do. Some owners/GMs swing for the fences; go all in. POR just doesn't have what it takes to do that. They need two additional players better than Grant and then things get interesting.

    Getting Thybulle allows us to move Gary and or Justise for a big. I'm guessing thats whats happening.

    Yeah, but if that third is a chick named Philly, you're definitely contracting something nasty. Come to think of it, her nickname includes "Brotherly Love", so I would run away screaming.
