Change for change sake just to make changes because it seems we are in purgatory is just ridiculous. Patience and persistence and the right player will become available that will be the missing pc. But just to do things, so there is a change??????????????? Yeah, lets just relocate. Thats the only answer... LMAO. Cause all fans want to root for a hometown team that has moved to another city. Call up Seattle and ask how many of them root for the Thunder. Relocation..... WTF are some people smoking?
Except the relocation part. Exact same teams except Blazers already in Vegas AND Lebron getting old....Davis wants to come play with Dame. They're building some more hilltop mansions right above my house. Easy airport access too. I am sure I'll have a few Raiders living near me soon.
I think it's frustrating but the 2016 thing did, in fact, put the Blazers in a tight spot to make a lot of moves. Signed a lot of guys long terms on bigger contracts than they probably should have gotten. I don't think the KP move was a realistic move. I think PG13 might have been, Butler seems to be basically a jerk I'm not sure they should've given away anything of value to go after him. AD would be great, but I don't know if they really have a shot at him unless NO loves CJ and values him highly. I think NO deserves a lot of the heat he gets and I would love to see the Blazers look like they're being aggressive to try to win while Dame is still in his prime. However, I don't think KP was realistic since NY wanted cap space. I'm more and more of the opinion that the Blazers only move this year will be salary cap related. This summer if they get wrecked in the playoffs again they will probably fire Stotts. Then summer with all those expiring they may be able to make a "splash" type move next year about this time, but we'll see. Maybe I'm settling, but I don't know how realistic it is to expect them to make splashy moves right now. Unless you're willing to let go of CJ, Zach, probably other young players and picks and I don't know if that nets you a guy like Blake, and I'd be even more surprised if that gets you AD. We'll see but can't get too upset about things not happening when realistically we've known since 2016 that they put themselves in a corner.
He has been banned several times. Honestly, I dont mind him, I just play his game back at him. We suck? Sky is falling? Oh well then move your ass to another town and root for another team then! But I will say, m not sure what he is trying to do here. He has been here long enough and made posts like this. He should know what the result will be. Not sure why he thinks anything will change.
Have you seen the bets that get made in those leagues? Things like the last place finisher standing on a busy corner in a tutu with sign proclaiming how bad he sucks! They are cut-throat! Olshey has never faced that sort of pressure.
Everything I've seen has the Blazers aggressively looking to trade for another star. Not trading Aldridge is still killing us. But we've done better without him than anybody predicted. If we could have gotten decent value or a high pick we could be legit contenders.
