    I guess Bobby Portis is staying with Milwaukee for the taxpayer MLE.

    LOL, c'mon man... I'm an eternal optimist, but this isn't exactly tough calculus.

    Dame is already down on Neil.
    Dame has made it VERY clear that he wants to see the roster improved.
    Powell's FA decision is the first of any real significance for Neil.

    Do you honestly think Dame will just be cool if Powell walks? As things are playing out, it's looking like it'd likely have to be a S&T. so that's something, but still... I'm not sure how Neil -- or anyone, frankly -- would be able to recover from that, with the deficit we're already facing...

    IF Norman Powell is indeed the golden goose that Neil is after, the only way it makes sense is a trade of CJ or sign and trade with Powell. If they plan on running him back at small forward we have failed

    If cj stays, norm should walk. My bet is same starting 5 as last year.

    if it turns out that neil really was on that plane, i think that's confirmation of how much of a degenerate i have become this summer.

    So you know exactly what Dame thinks? You guys are homeboys. Well tell Dame that I think he's the greatest Blazer of All Time. And that I think he can lead the Blazers to the Promised Land. And that if I can get back to Portland as hoped, I'd be glad to buy a Toyota from his dealership. And so on and........
