Is ABM still going to organize a KP meet and greet?

Getting these meet and greets done is a process. Negotiations are amicable.

 

I have no doubts on that score.

 

First, let's be clear here - I am a Roy fan, I think he should get the max and I hope it happens as soon as possible.

With that said - Roy does not have all the leverage here - because if he gets into a Shawn Livingston next year - he is down a big, big contract. That's why he wants to get it done this year - otherwise - he would not discuss the extension this year at all and just do it next year when he has the option to talk to each and every team.

Roy has lots of leverage. The team has some. I hope this is nothing more than just nonsense that will be resolved soon.

 

I still don't believe it, especially since it came from his agent. As for what Portland is thinking, my guess would be "It looks to me like a large majority of the people bitching and whining and pissing and moaning about this are the same people who told us they'd keep buying tickets if we burn the team to the ground and rebuild the roster with character guys."

 

We love our guys...

Unless you are talking about our best player asking for a contract that is the same duration as the one we offered a guy not even half as good. Then we need to play hard ball and get tough.

You go KP....

Straight to hell.
