I will, thanks. It doesn't make you mad they won't even consider the buyout market? Nope, it's me. Fuck Olshey! Am I welcome in your club? It's not because they didn't go my route it's because there is NO direction at all! Get out of the tax? Nope Make the team better this year? Nope Make the team better long term? Nope So 3 goals he could have pursued yesterday and he failed to achieve a single one. To top it all off he stood up there and contradicted himself.
Mad? Nah. Bummed? Sure, but I can also understand why they will stick with Simons through the failure. I’ve always advocated for letting young guys play through it, so it’d be hypocritical of me to be mad when they actually do. And besides PG, I don’t really see any other urgent needs, assuming Nurk returns relatively soon.
Your rage has consumed you into irrational thinking. We got better by making a trade for Ariza. Obviously the goal was to reduce the tax burden not necessarily get out of the tax completely and do you know if they tried to do other deals to get out of the tax completely? Make the team better long term? Is the long term here already? I always though it was a process and next off season we might re-sign Whiteside, have around 10 mil to sign another player as well as some of the exceptions and several contracts that can be moved if a good deal comes along. Instead all you do is fuck this and fuck that. Not a real mature way to act.
Yup, we aren't trying to field the best possible team in Dame's prime because of less than $2 million.
True. The injury was an issue, obviously. I just thought he was a bright spot early in the season. I thought he showed enough to have faith in him and invest in him. I do think it is made worse by having Swanigan on the court.
I'll use your buddy wizen's rationale. Swanigan has out rebounded, outscored and out played Skal since he's been a Blazer during that stretch. See how easy that is to do.? I liked Skal and thought he filled in nicely, but he was going to be a free agent and with Collins, Nurkic and the possible signing of Whiteside leaves Skal down the pecking order. It's the reality of the NBA.
