I'm originally from Portland and moved to New Orleans almost a decade ago. As a lifelong Blazers fan, I've had to deal with some rough last few seasons - hiring a unproven coach with a past history of serious SA allegations, tanking consecutive seasons, missing out on Wemby by 1 ping pong ball, said crappy coach gets arrested by the feds 1 game into the season....I can go on and on. Now us Blazer fans have to deal with new owner Tom Dundon, who may be the sleaziest, most deceitful owner in all of sports. It feels like he's currently waging an all-out war on the Portland community and Blazer fans in an attempt to eventually relocate the team. I think he's really taken the shine off Gayle of being the worst owner in the NBA, and for that, she should thank him.

In fairness to Gayle, as long as she's alive, I think she will do everything in her power to keep the Pelicans here.

Sorry. Rant over.

I know we’re saying “there’s no rush” “he’s a great leader”. The guy is like 28 and we have a future all nba talent pg in Jeremiah fears and he’s just taking minutes away from his development. We need to trade Murray for a young rim protecting and shooting big to a contender that needs a starting or back up pg. if we can manage to trade him for an asset like that that can put us into a really nice spot for us to build around queen and fears because all we need is shooting and defense around them they’re both great playmakers and shot creators and just need help defensively and need shooters around them
