    You'd think someone with a pizza delivery guy would know which pizza restaurants are just fronts and which are delicious sources of real pizza.

    Does CJ still live in Portland during the offseason?

    Perfectly fine with him hoping his winery and whatever business venture he chooses to engage in that is not basketball related.

    But does he live here? People have businesses all over, doesn't mean they live there. I don't know maybe he lives at the vineyard or in the area, was just curious if he still calls Oregon home.

    CJ always lived in NYC in the off season, I doubt it changed.

    Long summers in humid NYC don't sound appealing to me.

    But cold winters there don't sound great either. I don't get the allure of NYC I suppose. Very fun to visit for a few days though.

    On a serious note, I’d bring CJ back to be our backup to the backup guard.

    If he’s the absolute last option, I would be ecstatic. Anything more than that, and we’re getting weird about it.

    I was one of the few CJ supporters here. Just thought he had a great attitude and very intelligent player. To me the primary fault of the Dame CJ teams was never having two way forwards - not CJ.

    That said we need defense on lineups and it will be a stretch to cover a 36 year old Dame. CJ can have a bigger role this season and next elsewhere. Although at some point if he's more of an end of the bench 3rd string option Id be very happy to have him back.

    Who TF doesn’t want out of Washington?
    Unfortunately for CJ it doesn’t work for us contract wise.

    I’d take him back on a veterans minimum when his current contract is up. Going from Dame and CJ starting to Dame and CJ as our bench guard depth would be nice IMO.

    I’m a CJ fan & supporter.

    One of the few Blazers I’ve met in person and he was a nice dude.

    Bringing back Nurk is where I draw the line, but again if he wants to be here on a minimum contract backing up Yang and Clingan then I guess you could do worse than Nurk.
