Thomas Bryant is off the board.
That's ok, we're looking for a better big man.

Shoot, that's too bad. Would've been a nice fit.

I wouldn't be shocked if Brad brought Enes back on a vet min deal. At least he knows Enes and knows he's a good locker room guy.

Guess the Blazers don't plan on contending this decade.

$61 mil per year is crazy.

$61 mil per year is crazy. He's already 31 and showing small signs of decline. Glad we're not in their shoes.

The 17M TPE is going to expire and disappear in 9 days if not used.
Our roster is pretty full, and there aren't many good free agents (we're looking for a defensive wing and a big man).
I think we're either going to make a trade (rather than acquiring a free agent), or Brad is going to let the TPE expire.

I get the sense he's going to let it expire.

Yeah, same here.
Although one advantage is to trade for a guy who has a year or two left on his contract, and later use him as a salary matching piece at the trade deadline.

I think they'd look at doing that if they weren't already deep into luxury tax territory.

Brad must not let Matt Ryan go. He needs to sign him to a 2-way. His sharp shooting is needed on the team.
***Edit*** Matt Ryan hits a game winning 3.
I've seen enough. I'm liking him more than Hauser.

Now that we have signed Danillo with the mid level I don't understand how we're supposed to add another guy like hypothetically Dwight Howard. Are we supposed to sign them into the trad exceptions we have and eat more tax?

Are we supposed to sign them into the trad exceptions we have and eat more tax? Probably trade for an underrated big man who's not making a whole lot. Maybe Richaun Holmes?
