    According to Jason Quick, former NBA player, Suns general manager and current TNT broadcaster Steve Kerr, after being contacted by the Trail Blazers, has stated through his agent that he is not interested in filling Portland's general manager position:

     Kerr, the accomplished NBA guard and former general manager of the Phoenix Suns, said he is happy with his life as a broadcaster for TNT, which allows him to spend more time with his family. It is the same reason he gave the Trail Blazers last May when team president Larry Miller first approached him as a candidate to fill the vacancy left by the firing of Rich Cho.

    One year later, Kerr was once again the first call for Miller.

    “He likes Larry, and certainly isn’t closing any doors, but right now he loves his life at TNT,’’ said Mark Bartelstein, Kerr’s agent. “He will come back to the NBA in the future, whether it’s as a coach or in the front office, but that’s a few years down the road.’’

    Yahoo Sports is also reporting the Trail Blazers have contacted Noah Croom, currently a player agent, as another possible option.

    I'd bring Kerr off the bench. Can't have those terrible nights behind the arc continue into next season.

    First off Damian- Jack will make a lot more than 4 million next year. At minimum he will get a couple MLE offers starting at 5.15 million. Tony Allen will also get many MLE offers so to sign either will take at least 6 million probably closer to 8...

    Rookies are fine a team should be able to carry 5 of them easily. The problem with us last year was we had no depth in front of the rookies. Lillard and Leonard as lottery picks should have gotten lots of playing time, which they did. However, Bar...
