    Did it? Wes got a max contract while hurt. Maybe Dallas will sign him to replace Dirk.

    As much as I'm over Leonard, if we can get him for a couple more years at 7 million or so, do we do it? Probably.

    Wes was a proven commodity. Meyers is most certainly not.

    Wish the best for him personally. Hope he is on a different roster next year though. It's been so awesome watching Harkless starting and Ed Davis paired with other guys off the bench.

    I think he should go to a team with great defensive guards who can't shoot. Orlando or Milwaukee would be good.

    That was my reaction. Seems excessive for a dislocation.

    What are the chances he takes the QO to be an UFA the year after?

    He bet on himself once; didn't win.

    Double down?

    I would suspect it has a tear and they need to remove bone spurs or debris from the joint. Seems to me a tear would require that long if repaired..something is causing it to dislocate easily..probably need to rehab the muscle around the shoulder to support the repair..most of the time would be rehab for strengthening I'd think

    In my opinion if his price drops considerably, he does win because he stays a Blazer at least for a while longer. Give him a chance to build his value again. He wouldn't lose much to sign a one year qualifying offer here,,(riverman gets booed out of the forum in one...two..three...)

    I think it's a lock that he takes the QO.

    Unless Neil offers him the same contract that Meyers turned down last summer.
