    "Twat Takeover" LOL. Is that an X-rated comedy spoof?

    too much whining over a guy who is not very good, hopefully a sign of upgrading the bench and overall talent

    They released Knox and Trendon, okay, but why on God's Gray Earth is John Butler still on this team? Trade filler?

    Maybe the plan is to get smaller.

    Watford being released means the Blazers are tanking summer league.

    He’s actually a restricted FA. We gave him the qualifying offer yesterday

    I hope this is setting up a big move, but I'm not ruling out the possibility ownership is simply being cheap and making the front office decide between the Rupert and the 2-way guys or Watford.

    He's over 7' ..good shot blocker and good 3 pt shooter. I think he's a big they're bringing along slowly that will be better each year..we'll see. Needs to bulk up. His shooting makes him able to play the 4.

    What a pathetic management and pathetic decision. The guy was MVP of summer league a year ago. I wouldn't be surprised if Lame the GM is behind this

    So, that means we can't sign him as a 2 way again or Butler who we also have a QO?

    I wouldn't blindly put my faith to anyone except Jesus.

    What has Cronin done to warrant putting my faith with him? Now draft picks I'll give him that and basically am with the Murray/Rupert picks. But trades and free agency signing? I have justifiably no reason to put faith with Cronin and he needs to earn some faith by making good moves first. If anything I'd say he deserves to have all his trades and signings further questioned, as the majority of them have been poor moves.

    Plus the whole cheap Vulcan/Jody dynamic, which this move screams of.
