    They got Bazemore and dumped Harkless, so that's a wash. Whiteside is a better fit in Portland. It's not impressive but it has been positive.

    Maybe Freedom Day is when a big trade is coming.

    Paul, capela, and FRP for brown, smart and Hayward.

    To be fair they HAVE been doing business can't you see they locked up House to 3 years and Rivers to 2 years at vet min? Solid offseason so far just need to use MLE on a backup center and Rox are the best team in the league.

    You are right about the first part though Rox need to shut up and stop overhyping things every summer

    Portland has not acted like they were going to do something, yet they've had a quite impressive off-season so far. Aminu is the only real loss.

    Portland made the WCF.

    They had guys that they knew it would be hard to retain.

    The made preemptive moves to ensure that they didn't take a big step back and added some new variance.

    After we were inches from winning the West, Morey and Tilman screamed Run - It - Back into a microphone like Leonardo DiCaprio to a room full of investment bankers while letting a key part of our success for the previous three seasons leave and letting Luc walk over a few hundred thousand and a fear of dipping into the MLE that we never used.

    Fireworks. LOL

    This offseason wasn't all that terrible except the fact they keep running their mouths. Please stop that nonsense.

    Adebayo, Winslow still, right? And both of the incoming deals also expire after this year. Getting rid of Whiteside is a net positive, especially with a younger, still gives a #×&=, version of him still on the team.

    You all think the Heat laugh and hang up at a Gordon for Winslow swap?

    If I were Tillman, I'd let it go one more season. If no improvement or regression next season, I would fire EVERYONE.
