One last Pritch slap before going out and making the Blazers brass look like a bunch of douches.

This is **** terrible. Webster isn't even worth his contract and we give up 16 and gomes' valuable deal? Fire Kahn, fire the whole front office and hire the mailroom guy for the thunder.

Kevin Pritchard's been fired and he's still fleecing us. Can't kick the habit, I suppose.

Ya, we're still hearing that it's Webster for Gomes and Babbitt here in Portland. Not here to gloat, but that seems like a pretty solid deal for the Blazers, not so sure about it for Minny.

I think Webster can play both wing positions and this team has immediately improved the wing length and ability to provide excellent floor space. If they can get either James Anderson or Hassan Whiteside at 23 i'll be much happier with the makeup of this roster.

You guys may bitch but going from Gomes and Wilkins to Wes Johnson and Martell Webster can completely fix the SF position which to me was the biggest problem a year ago.

You spouted the same stuff about Sessions and Flynn completely fixing the PG position, our biggest problem the year before and thus improving the whole team as a result.

Fool me once...
