    Something isn't being told here

    There has to be a reason why he left and team close to contending in LA for Portland, a team that isn't.

    It's not like he was the assistant GM there. He was the VP of basketball operations.

    This guy is a snake.

    Nothing wrong with being a snake as long as he's a good one.

    He is smooth.

    I do not think Caleb will be coach, even with what Olshey said.

    My couple concerns is he doesn't seem like a Portland guy (much more of an LA guy) and is he really serious about Canales being coach.

    Overall, very excited to have him on board!

    My favorite words from Neil Olshey . . .

    "Last year we took a step backwards, but this year we can take a big step forward."

    Still can't get over Olshey mentioning Penn and KP in his first few minutes of the presser.

    Like it! I don't sense a Yes Man, and if it's Bert Kolde who made this happen, well, it's the first time I've thought positively of Kolde perhaps ever.

    clippers are kinda tapped out, blazers offered a chance to build from more or less the ground up, much more enticing imo

    The guy hasn't done a thing for Portland and Kaleb now looks like a possibility to be the head coach

    No, I'm not satisfied

    The Blazers offer a chance to build a legacy. Cap space, two lotto picks, and a chance to completely remake a team in his image. He can write his own ticket.
