Future of the Blazers

[sammichoffate]

Just came off their best season in 20 years, here are the contracts they can use moving forward:

Evan Turner: $18m expirer
Nurkic: $12m 2 years
Moe Harkless: $11m expirer
Meyers Leonard: $11m expirer
Aminu: $7m UFA
Zach Collins on rookie deal

I think they'll have to resign Seth Curry, Hood, and Kanter. Possible moves would be something like a sign and trade for Tobias Harris or Kelly Oubre.

Blazers would benefit from having Aldridge again. They lacked offensive firepower to compete with the elite teams.

[Uncle Drew]

They won’t go anywhere with the Trash Bros of the West.

This kind of comment is really stupid. They've just made it to the conference finals, which is farther than other 26 teams.

Houston is better than them, Denver will be too going forward. It's not going to be a surprise if they don't make it past the first round.

[DCL]

they're not a "championship or bust" team.

making the conference finals was a grand achievement for them.

Without their starting center no less

And they're lucky to get that far. They got the easy side of the bracket. They'll never go anywhere with Lillard and McCollum in their backcourt, just like the Raptors didn't go anywhere with Lowry and Derozan. They'll win a series, then fizzle out like they've done so many times.

Aldridge did say he wud be open to playing there again this year, although idk if they could cover up his defense. He's getting up there in age.

They need to bring back Hood, Curry, and Kanter. Fortify the bench if possible. Get some better shooters. If they could turn Aminu or Harkless into a better three and D combo that would help.

I'm fine with keeping everyone and just running this back with Nurkic. I could watch that for the net 2-3 years while Collins and Simons develop.

[NBAGOAT]

the next couple years might be their window. Dame is rumored for a 4yr 191mil extension.

Go after Draymond. He would be perfect for them.

Lillard
CJ
Scrub
Green
Nurkic

Warriors 2015 2.0

That would elevate Drays legacy even more if he wins with Portland
