    Agreed. You can't predict future performance on past results. Everyone's role will expand and these young bench players from other teams will blossom.

    I'd bring back Wright is he's interested in mentoring this group. We have a hole at the wing. With Dame, CJ, Hendo, Crabbe, Pat, Frazier I think we're fine in the backcourt. Give Wright a big raise and nonguaranteed in year2 for a trade chip.

    I'd actually do the same with Mo Williams if he is interested in watching young players. Great locker room guy. But if he wants regular minutes let him go elsewhere

    Pass. If he regains from he has limited value since his contract is so high. He will take minutes from youth. He would require a different gameplay than every other player on the roster

    DWright is my choice for a guy to sign who will come in and compete. I like his game and he's not super expensive, has a good leadership quality to help young guys and Dame love him

    I know the majority of Blazer fans hate him but I don't...Jamal Crawford is a lights out 3 pt shooter and a free agent. Multiple 6 man of the year awards and Stotts is a coach who could put his talents to good use. You want a volume scorer at the 2, he's that guy

    Not only does Neil have a plan, he's ready for 3 or 4 more contingencies.

    I'd try to get Terence Ross from Toronto since they just gave Demarre Carroll that fat contract

    I'd like to think Bird remembers how Olshey handled the FA period for Hibbert a few years ago and I'd hope Bird will want to only work with Olshey if Hibbert is going anywhere

    You know your roster is in trouble when Wright sounds good.

    Right now our starters should be: Lillard - Henderson - Aminu - Davis - Plumlee
    with bench of CJ - ?? - Vonleh - Leonard.

    I would hope for a chance to let Vonleh and Leonard crack the starting lineup asap. They need controlled PT, but as much as they can handle.

    Crabbe should get some good burn this year. Find out if he can be a bench player or not

    It's done. They are only sorting out the details.
