MAILBAG: How Will Chauncey Billups Be Judged This Season?
MAILBAG: How Will Chauncey Billups Be Judged This Season?
Questions about Billups' future with the Trail Blazers and Jim Moran's departure from the Rip City Remix in the final mailbag installment of the dog days.
If you missed the first three installments of our latest mailbag over the last two weeks as they’ve rolled out, catch up below.
The final one covers a couple of coaching-related topics. One of them comes up a lot—Chauncey Billups’ future as the Trail Blazers’ head coach—and the other just came up recently: Jim Moran’s departure as head coach of the Rip City Remix.
Next week, the NBA is slated to release the full schedule for the 2024-25 regular season, so we’ll have some actual news to cover. There could be some other things coming down soon, too. But in the meantime, thanks for all the mailbag questions and be sure to become a paid subscriber if you want to participate in the next one, likely closer to the start of training camp.
What is the result the front office wants to see from Chauncey to preserve his job? Is there a number? is it just development from the young guys?

What would it take for the Blazers to extend Chauncey Billups' contract? (number of wins, pushing for play-in, nothing?)
Conversely, with a few blurbs coming out this year about how a young team isn't what Billups signed up for, what would it take for Billups to be interested in being extended on a very young team?
