    We've got Hurrican Nurk and Slight Breeze Leonard.

    Nurk is the Best!!!!!


    Actually, I'm a bit worried. It seems like every time something good that should logically happen, doesn't:

    We kick ass, then next year we re-sign our guys to big contracts, then add a player (ET), and we suck.
    We admirably make it through a tough stretch of schedule. We SHOULD kill the bad teams on the following schedule, but we go 3-7 instead.
    We have Zach Randolph, Greg Oden, Brandon Roy, and LMA - we should be a dynasty. Instead we Die Nasty.

    Is there any case that we won't be able to match offers next year if we are in luxury tax or whatever? Or we can match up to whatever amount we want?

    I saw this tweet the other day and I'm not sure about the rules

    Watching that assist video lets me know we've got to keep Harkless. He benefits the most IMHO.

    If Nurkic wins MIP that would make Stotts the 2nd greatest coach in Blazer history.

    1 ROY

    2 MIPs

    Meyers is a Tropical Depression, in meteorology terms.

    Depressing isn't exactly the same thing. He's more of a cumulonimrod cloud than anything.

    Totally agree. Of all the guys Neil signed to contracts last off-season, he's the one who's most living up to his end of the bargain.

    Ok, is Meyers the red part or are you saying he should be a weather guy? Both are probably correct

    Meyers should be a weatherman so he can screw up the green screen shots like this. I think he would be good for some really great gifs in that line of work.

    One would think you'd need a bigger screen because he's tall but he would probably stand 25 feet away just like he stays away from the hoop so it wouldn't even be a problem.

    Is there a way to pump fake the weather report?

    For the 2016–17 season, the salary cap was set at $94.14 million and the luxury tax limit was $113.29 million
    113.29 million over the soft cap in taxes.

    Chills.

    We haven't had a passing big man like Nurk since Sabonis.

    Jack Ramsey approves.
