They don't state what it's for, so I'll wait before passing judgement.

If it is sexual misconduct/harassment though, it would be ironic having Jody's name on that PR.

Its scumbag hunting season and I’m loving it :thumbsup:

The NBA is leading the way of major sports in showing some accountability.. big props to Silver

That said, always thought Olshey was a good GM so hope it turns up empty/minimal.. but if he made his bed, gotta lie in it

Old rich white men treating everyone like garbage. Shocking.

Please avoid antagonistic racial commentary.

Neil Olshey wasn't viewed as an incompetent GM until this year

Seems like the Blazers ownership was aware of something unsavoury going on but were willing to look the other way until prompted by the Sarver story.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

Isn’t it a racist thing that investigations are only against white people?

This is a reminder for everyone to not make this thread overly political or antagonistic to other users. No Trump or Biden or left wing this or right wing that. No derailing or baiting with racial comments. No overgeneralizing and attacking. Etc.

I know these friendly reminders may make some of you roll your eyes but I think they are preferable to handing out strikes and locking threads. This is an NBA basketball site and this thread is about Neil Olshey and the Portland Trailblazers. Thanks!

Sooner there will be no one left to coach, manage or play... or breath at all.

Exactly. Why don't they just fire him instead of jumping thru all the hoops. It's not like Olshey is a team owner that needs to be removed by the league.
