Me too. But, if Bibby returned to form (rejuvinated by the young guns), he would be a mature leader with lots of experience that could run things until Sergio was ready. And they only have to pay him for two years. If he worked out and you could use the #10 + some second rounders to move up a bit, Pritchard might be able to get the SF prospect he wants and the PG leader they are also looking for.

Re: deal coming soon

This, has to involve Zack as MM is sure that he is gone and he is so excited about this. Must be Zack and Jack for ??????

By the way if we have to wait for more than a couple of days I will start an "ignore MM" for a year for all Blazer fans on this board. Anyone with me? ha

Re: deal coming soon

I've been checking other NBA team boards for a similar "deal coming" leak to try to connect the dots, but so far there's nothing. Maybe other teams run a tighter ship in this respect.

Re: deal coming soon

There went my afternoon productivity.

Oh, and by the way, don't expect to get much info on Courtside unless the TEAM is ready to leak the information. They are Blazers employees and can't say anything that isn't pure speculation.

SOME GMs use these kinds of things as a "last call" of sorts for best offers from other teams.

Yeah, I've been doing the same thing. Good intelligence work there.

Although if I find something from another team, I think I'd rather keep it on the downlow than cause any sort of damage.

As long as a RFA or UFA isn't involved, and the deal doesn't involve CLE or SA, you can.
