    Then he’d be traded. Better players are coming in.

    I think after this win Joe might think we need to get worse for the rest of the season. Hopefully a horrible trade isn’t coming tomorrow.

    Hmmm I wonder if we're interested in Holmes. Early in the season, he was playing like an All Star.

    Not much left. Either....

    1. Another small cap-space move
    2. Trade involving Nurkic
    3. Waiting to help facilitate a multi-team deal

    I think Joe would like to get into option #3, but he doesn't have control over that, and just has to be ready to jump in quickly.

    Jeram Grant? Bledsoe?

    You don't think there's any chance of using the Bledsoe contract in a deadline deal for a legitimate player?

    It's certainly possible, but as of now, Detroit wants a lot more than just Bled's contract. Seems like the Blazers want to hold onto the New Orleans' Lottery pick for something else, and don't really have enough other pieces to get a deal for Grant done.

    Unless they want a baked potato for Jerami, the pistons are gonna end up saving Cronin from himself on that deal

    I think the 'effort' was made to let Dame know they were giving it a shot, but when it became fairly obvious that wasn't going to work for now, it was put on the back burner. Unless Detroit just wants cap space, there are much better deals they can make from an assets standpoint then what the Blazers can provide them....unless you move Nurk.

    If there was a tax team with a huge crappy expiring contract it would be a good match for us in a Bledsoe trade. We take on salary now providing tax relief and they take on $4 million of next years cap.
