    From RealGM-

    KOC had this comment when asked if the Jazz would re-sign Fess:

    "He's next on the agenda," O'Connor said of the restricted free agent. "(We'll) go from there, see what happens, see if Portland has any more money left."
    Can't say that I blame him, but it's what you get when you allow your free agents to shop around instead of signing them yourselves.

    I'm sure he was joking, but as they say, there is always a little truth to every joke.

    How about YOU dictate what your players are worth versus having some other team set up some "toxic" deal for you to swallow. Can't wait to see how you handle Deron Williams next contract signing...

    Williams will be signed to an extension long before he is a FA. If they don't they are really dumb. As far as the comment, it's pretty childish, but funny. The reality is if Portland wanted to go into the Luxury Tax then they would have a LOT of money. They are being very conservative right now. So, my answer is "KOC, becareful what you wish for."

    This guy makes me laugh.  He should worry about signing the guys he thinks are worth it and not about what the Blazers are doing.

    Claver will make a great squad player when he develops his outside shot. His size is an asset because he can guard SF and stretch 4s. If he can be a better rebounder and add a post move to his game we could be looking at a possible answer to our f...

    Oden was definitely the best pick coming out of high school and arguably ahead of Durant in the 2007 draft. But the draft is art not science and we really needed a dominant center at the time. If we can get Oden for a short term low-risk deal. Lik...
