    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.

    Time will tell. As it is well known round these parts, I do not have much hope for athletic big men. (JJ Hickson doesn''t count).

    He''s too big to be a SF, to big to be a PF, so Centre.

  4. Roster Ideas?

    Henson and Harkless yes, Nicholson, not really.

    Started by Aaron Childers on 05/16/13 at 8:17 PM

    Okay, I''ll admit it, I like Asik better. I definitely think they will both have very good careers. And finally, someone who agrees, that Ibaka is a  shot blocker, not really a great defender.

    Magic have a center and tons of young talent, extra picks and a future with a lot of cap space so yah the MAGIC.

  7. Rebuild Diagram 2.0

    Started by cmeese47 on 05/17/13 at 2:53 PM

    Henson will be solid down the road but his ceiling is more like Taj Gibson. He is a great role player but not elite like Sanders and Ibaka could be if people were not so willing to shoot on him.

    Here''s my best Mock Draft scenario for the Blazers:

    Trade every pick we can to get a starting defensive Center.
