Blazers Offseason Natty Thread

Shitty expiring contract for shitty expiring contract. Baze fits better in the Blazers’ rotation though -
Huge upgrade

Not me...

Simons and Baze on the second team to replace Turner+Curry

Seeing that trade kinda opened up my eyes to how well Atlanta has rebuilt. They’ve got a ton of proven and promising young talent... Trae Young and John Collins are legit, and they just drafted Deandre Hunter and Cam Reddish. Add to that, they’ll have $50-60M in cap space next offseason.
I could see them being a go-to free agent spot next summer -
Blazers made this trade so that their young pg that dropped 30+ points in his starting debut last year could get ~25 minutes a game next year.NEsnake12 said:Seeing that trade kinda opened up my eyes to how well Atlanta has rebuilt.

They'll also be in a position to shed a ton of their cap for next offseason or even the trade deadline, with a superior player in Baze instead of 2 2 2 or whatever pathetic stay line Turner drags with him. -
Why would the Blazers need cap space for free agents?haie said:

Same reason Toronto needs space to sign Kawahi as he's checking out billboards by Staples...PurpleThrobber said:

I heard Toronto is such a superior city that they have nothing to worry about. -
