Shams: Olshey being investigated for workplace misconduct

Wheels and the Mike's worked with McGowan on the business side, not under Neil.

 

whiteside is the hill he chooses to die on?

fuckin hassan whiteside?

lol

 

If healthy, Roy and Oden would have won many titles. No question.

Not sure if Aldridge would have stuck it out, but Roy and Oden were pretty much unstoppable when healthy.

 

I think Chris Haynes is the hill Olshey chose to die on.....whatever went down between them, it must have pissed Tone off!

 

Yeah....he lost me there. The rest may be true, but he didn't do much to give credit to his statement with the Whiteside bit.

 

If Nurk and Collins and Hood wouldn't have gone down, our bench wouldn't have been starting either....injuries seriously fucked a really decent roster...we've been starting bench players for the last few years...finally we have a fairly healthy roster and bench.

 

Even with those guys healthy I think we needed a second all star to get be serious contenders.

 

Won 53 in 18-19 though so close

 

It wasn’t whoopty doo me. Watching Dame hit another series winner, watching us win a 4OT game, beating Denver in Gm 7 on the road with CJ leading us. That was FUN. Losing in WCF sucked but getting there was fun.

 

Neil was so defensive after the sweep in 2018. Felt like he was yelling at the posters on this board.

 

It was fun. There just were no illusions that we would win a title that year. Neil has failed to put a contender around the best player our franchise has ever had. It is sad.

 

I got about 88k

 

Lots of mess up’s in his time in Portland. But, Hassan Whiteside? Dude hasn’t done shit since he left Portland

 

Neil deserves to be fired from the 2016 offseason alone.

A lot of his other failures and other criticisms are justified.

Only thing I strongly support him on is keeping Aldridge, the criticism he gets for not trading him is ludicrous.

I'm ready for a new GM. However the scary part is I have little faith ownership will hire an improvement. Will really suck if it's even worse.

 

Yea I didn’t understand what the hell Harvey was doing defending not bringing back Whiteside lol

 

Why shouldn’t he be criticized for not trading Aldridge? We knew years in advance that he wouldn’t be back.

 

Huh? We had like the 2nd best record in the West, up and coming superstar discovered as a sidekick for him, and LMA was pretty much all over the media saying he wants to retire as the best Blazer ever.

Once the trade deadline passed is when shit went south quick. So please tell me at what point do you trade him? Lol

 

There were rumors two years before that saying that LMA wanted out. The writing was on the wall. Plenty of people saw that he wasn't going to come back. His comments about wanting to retire as the best blazer ever were bullshit. He wanted to go to Texas. He wanted to be closer to his family. He never really liked Portland. He always felt like he was second fiddle and he had huge middle child syndrome. We should have dealt him.
