You people have NO faith in NeO at least the one's who think NOTHING -- you guys realize he has to do something or better then even chance Dame is GONE within a year ish -- even NeO is not that stupid . Now what he does might fail miserably but i do believe he will DO something.
If Neil does nothing Dame will demand a trade between the beginning of the season and the trade deadline. At that point Olshey will be fired and they'll bring in someone else to handle the rebuild and make Dame wait until the off season. Neil's job and reputation are on the line. He has to do something.
Dallas gets CJ for Porz Sign Powell to 27m py 3 year Leaf stays Melo Kanter gone Sign one other bench vet
That is an accurate statement, and a reasonable position. He hasn't really done anything to give us faith. Why have high expectations when past performance suggests the opposite is more likely? If Neil pulls off some significant trade, I will gladly give him all the credit he deserves. I won't even make any comments about him only acting because Dame boxed him into a corner, or that he was 3 years late making big changes. But I'm absolutely not going to set myself up for disappointment by expecting him to do something that he hasn't done in his entire tenure.
I mean NeO didn't even sign a backup PG last year. How can I have any confidence that he can do what is needed for the team? He is/was too arrogant to admit that Ant is a pure SG and will never run an offense.
He will find his way into the Draft and we will hear about it tonight/Tomorrow. Hopefully we get high enough to land Moses Moody. That's the dude i want.

He will have his valet drive him around, not talk to the press unless it is a controlled press conference, and be snarky with his answers. Not really going out on a limb...
That's a pretty big overpay for Powell, all of the analysts are saying that 20M py is what his value is so I thought we could win any bidding with 22.
It is but I think he will be coveted by a few teams and it will drive his market value up. I certainly hope im wrong.
You're probably right because one of the teams interested is the Knicks and they can pretty much spend whatever they want on him under 30M and have another 30M+ for another FA. Just hoping that it's an overpay we don't have to go that far on. If we trade CJ like you have up there, then this becomes a much more attractive place to stay for Norm.
Superstar potential and Dame was just reported as saying after watching Giannis and playing with Bam he wants to play with an ultra athletic big.
To me the money is crazy, but the NBA is a machine and the owners wouldn’t pay it unless they saw a return..
Dumpster dive is what he’ll do for the 9th consecutive summer. He’s proven that he’s more than comfortable squeaking into the playoffs again.
