    Can just feel it. It's too quiet. I think Neil is working on something and he won't show his face until he can announce a home run. We have a ton of cap space. I think he's working on a trade.

    RFA and/or trade in the next week. I don't see anyway that PA will let Neil carry this roster and capspace all the way to the trade deadline.

    Or, he's not. I was hoping you had some info in here. Looks similar to "similar threads" below

    If we have to fill some space, it's gotta be a trade. An unbalanced trade. That would be my guess.

    Check your septic tank. With this hot weather, something bad could be happening.

    You realize that there isn't a finite number of spaces for threads, right? We can make as many as we want!

    I don't know if it's a home run, but I know he will surely do all his moves before he comments to the media again.

    I don't think there will be any info. The Blazers sent a pretty clear message to their employees by firing Hughes.

    And Boom goes the Dynamite on that! We've been very notorious of not showing our hand until it's absolutely certain its final

    "Pop goes the weasel" seems to feel that way.

    So anyway.....go check the outhouse then. (or do you just pee anywhere like Sly?)

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    You know what else feels too quiet? A GM who's basically done for the off-season. ;)

    I highly doubt that. I would be shocked if we are done for the summer.

    My guess is they're preparing offer for kanter, but they don't want it to leak and give okc extra time to prepare for it. And everybody is scared to leak because of Hughes. Hopefully not though

    If they are doing anything, they need someone who can take the ball-handling/creator duties off of Damn. Right now, he is it. CJ can but rarely passes. Right now if you were to play and they double-teamed Damian, the Blazers would be lucky to break 80 points.

    That may be true, but I still think there's a trade of some sort. I don't think Kaman will be on the roster come October.
