Lets talk about it.......I can't wait for this season to be over and just move on to the off season. Neil Olshey plans to be aggressive in looking for ways to improve the Portland Trail Blazers this summer. The Blazers could have $13.1 million in salary cap space to spend on free agents. “We'll be very proactive this summer,” Olshey said. “What we've seen this season is that this team isn't very far away. We'll have the flexibility to make a move if we choose to do so or not, but it has to be the right move for the organization.” Olshey will have a decision to make on Eric Maynor, whose qualifying offer contains a $5.85 million cap hold. “At this point, we know where things stand with Eric and how he fits with our roster composition,” Olshey said. “Now it's all about how certain variables play out.”
