Sean, just wanted to say you are one I always look forward to getting some email news from! Thank so much for all you do to keep us in the know and share with us! Take care.
Also about the WNBA, how do they start a team from scratch to get the players? Some from draft or how does it work? Really excited about this for Rip City!
Sean it seems like we need to make decision on Ant, Scoot, and to a lesser extent Shae this coming summer. It feels like this comes down to Scoots development (outside of Ant taking an all star leap). What does Scoot need to show to make the FO comfortable that he’s the guy going forward
If you had to predict, who do think will surprise us this year in terms of jump or impact? I know a lot of us weren’t anticipating Toumani having the success early he had so just curious if you think more might click for Scoot in year 2 or maybe someone else. Thanks for the off-season coverage.
Sean, David Thorpe has some pretty negative and pointed feedback on Scoot based on what he saw in the Summer pick-up league down in LA. How concerned are you about him and his growth going into the new year. Should we be worried that the Blazers FO has blinders on with Scoot?
I get the whole team strategy of rebuilding by losing a lot of games to gain better draft position, calculated trades of your remaining veterans, and playing the young guys, but I wonder if the Blazers will try to sell that strategy again next summer if they don’t get one of the top 2-3 prospects in next years draft?
Everyone loves the idea of having the next big superstar on their team, but is perpetually waiting for that unicorn really better than having a team that is competitive even if they don’t have a chance to win a championship?
I just hope the strategy isn’t to drag this on until you land the next LeBron, or else this could get real ugly.
Looking ahead to the end of the season, what do you think are good player comparisons for Scoot at the high end and low end of his possible development?
Do you have a sense of a timeline of when the new WNBA team will start hiring personnel?
What are the odds we see a trade before the start of the season?

Any updates on Shaedon Sharpe injury will he be fully ready for camp.
What would Chauncey Billups need to do in order to keep his head coaching job?
Who do you think is going to be the biggest upside surprise in camp and for what reasons?
Of Ant, Grant, and Williams, who do you think is going to be the first to be traded and when?
