Trailblazers did get good signings?
depth, yes, Keogan and Telf are ok, nothing else.
but talent? Between an undrafted rookie and Julian I have a hard time discovering any talent.
at least these guys will guarantee another high draft pick next year
My main target was Khoury, i wanted a good starting PG but still didnt want to overpay so i offered him like 10 mil for just 1 year, i prefer taking young players while rebuilding and older ones on only 1 year contracts.
Bernard i just took to fill roster spot and i knew probably no one else offered to him so he was a sure thing.
Telfair is Blazer legend, still good, hell probably start or be main backup now that all great PGs were taken.
Julian has great ratings and is young, but i didnt want to overpay a guy who still didnt prove anything. Im happy he signed tough.
Nolan will be a great backup for Hakeem.
Anyway all those guys are great fillers and on 1 year contracts. And ill see about Julian how hell adapt, maybe he is a bust, maybe he can become a great player, ill offer him much more after this season if he plays great.
We still have more money, to sign Phelps back and maybe Livy. We could be competitors immediately, but i believe we still lack frontcourt help, thereş just Hakeem and Nolan, no true PF but ill try to get one trough trade or FA 4'5.
PG could also be a problem this season, but well i wouldnt mind spending another lotto season and picking up a great PG or PF in draft or FA next off-season.
Anyway i already like this team a lot, and with another good FA, great pick and maybe some trade we should be ready to be one of top teams already next season.
