    This is almost certainly the case.

    But they'll find too much to keep him. He's as good as gone.

    Investigation aside, IMO, he should still be gone.

    • LMA leaving for nothing when so many KNEW he would be gone
    • 2016 Free Agency
    • 2017 Draft
    • Signing CJ a year before he had to
    • 5 1st round picks, Ariza and DJJ for Collins, RoCo and Nance
    He has been good with later picks in the 2nd round or late 1st round, but that doesn't make up for the rest.

    True - but Blazers would have to pay out the full contract.

    If they can fire NO 'with cause', Blazers could void the rest of the contract & possibly not have to pay it.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Nic Batum for Noah Vonleh. I don't necessarily blame him for trying to rebuild, but he managed to target a prospect that amounted to nothing.

    That is actually the most depressing scenario. If Olshey is their idea of a "good" GM, we are well and truly boned!

    The board was almost universally in favor of that at the time, as I recall. Almost.

    I've never believed that this forum should be GM, either.

    So not only is Olshey a shitty GM, he's threatening child abuse as well!

    He's been chumming it up with Cuban, eh?

    Sounds about right.

    I wonder if Texas has good enough valet for Olshey.
