    It was likely just kicking the can but from Cronin's POV it might be kicking the can to a day in June where he'll have the draft rights to a pick in the middle of the first round and a bunch of future picks along with the salaries we already have on the team that aren't expiring and Shae. I'm not saying he trades all of that to make us instantly relevant but if he traded a lot of that he could make us instantly relevant as well as make this an attractive place for Jerami to play especially since we can overpay him more than anyone else.

    Or he's just pulling the old Olshey and kicking the can for the sake of kicking it.

    So what exactly did we get for CJ? Cam Reddish?

    Wow, that Cronin is a genius.

    You can disagree but all the drama in this forum is him at the center of it, he constantly gets into it with many posters here but everyone is the problem but him according to himself.

    Consistently trying to get someone to rally around their negative views is toxic and I have, and sure you to have too, noticed that a lot of good level headed posters have left here.

    This place is becoming like the Blazers edge forums and it’s sad to see quite frankly.

    Sorry. I have to sympathize with him. There was a time(maybe still to some) that this issue you describe was all my fault.

    he is just chatting it up in a forum is all.

    The joke was harmless. And if someone is being a dumbass, I'm going to call it like I see it.

    Yeah, I don't like that Grant could bolt and that the rest of those things don't make sense with Dame's timeline but that's not a bad return for CJ and Larry. The Clippers trade is still hard to explain but like so many have pointed out when I have criticized it in the past we may not know if that was Joe's fault or the fault of ownership? or the stewards of ownership past? or whatever the fuck it is that owns our favorite team at the moment.

    Interesting... so it's my fault when I share my opinion about the team and people attack me? Telling someone to stop crying is not addressing the content of their posts. You're on my ignore list BECAUSE you're one of those toxic people. I'm tired of people attacking me and not the content of my posts. I ignored a bunch of you because you get butthurt when I share an opinion that you don't like.

    We got value out of Hart while we still had him.

    Even though I know why they did it, I'm still salty the FO picked Anfernee Simons over Josh Hart. Here's to hoping they don't end up regretting it...

    Look who's suddenly a scoring machine (2-3 from 3, 12 points in 14 minutes)

    Seems to me that's a player a team claiming to want to make the playoffs would want.
