oh shyt, Mike Rice is legit @Skooby
I'm believing this leads to another trade. I was hoping they would unload Turner or Leonard...but I'll take this even though it should have never happened. Should have never matched the Nets offer from last year.
Just for Nicholson :manny:

Im guessing crabbe is gonna start at the 3

@Serious @Skooby you're welcome :mjgrin:
Dude was overpaid for what he does. That said, he's a really good shooter. He just can't do anything else particularly well.




:picard: what that that tax bill was and the savings now

Cap move only. Wouldn't make since to then take on Ryan Anderson. Blazers have to be involved in some other way...I hope. If I had to choose though, I'd rather have Anderson on the roster than Meyers Leonard. Dude is literally worthless and I knew it as soon as he was drafted.

Can't believe they gave away Crabbe like that. Portland's GM should be fired for the deals he gave out last year.

Brooklyn's GM is doing work and de-valuing that pick Boston has.
Yeah, those contracts last summer were ridiculous. It's the reason why Dame and CJ have no help. But I think he saved his job by getting Nurkic. That was a steal.

well, the blazers do get worse at a team by sending crabbe out. thats one less competent offensive player available on a team that doesnt have much outside of damn, CJ and nurkic, in league where the best team puts up 115 in regulation just going through the motions.

if you can add andersen and get rid of one of the other bad contracts/useless players then thats a win.

also people need to stop acting like andersen is a scrub.

not scrub but he's a defensive liability and always injured for about 20 games in season every year. I saw an article that broke it down

do you think the blazers are a good defensively now ? do you think they would be significantly worse, vs the improvement offensively with andersen ?

I'm going be pissed if we lose mo harkless and crabbe, yet keep turner, leonard, then gain ryan anderson.....

Now someone needs to get fired from that move....

I'm looking at Ariza's contract now...

Exactly - Harkless and Crabbe were the two most competent role players on that squad.

Turner, Leonard, and Aminu the shyt that needs to move.

Blazers just got worse.
