[Danny Marang] Interestingly enough – the Clippers can’t find a trade for Norman Powell anywhere. I wonder if the “Blazers got fleeced” narrative changes at all as folks look at how contracts are viewed.

The Blazers did well enough on that trade. People just don’t understand how nba contracts are valued.
Lue also basically cut Covington out of the lineup entirely as the year went on even with all the injuries on the wing the Clippers had.
At least as couch GM’s we don’t get fired.
Tbh, why did Danny tweet this? Just let it go… who cares if people perceive us to have been fleeced on pretty inconsequential trade from over a year ago.
No one is seriously gonna go “time to change my mind about the Blazers/Clippers trade”.
Edit: and as others have said, those who actually paid attention knew why we did that trade in the first place. Idk, NBA discourse is so weird now…
“Fleecing” aside, I just always liked Norm, loved his vibe on the court. Still rock my shirt from when he collab’d with Powell’s Books
There could be many reasons why the Clippers aren’t finding trade partners for Norm. What is Danny trying to imply here? Norm sucks?
Hmm I dunno? I’ve been told a bunch that Powell is the perfect SG to pair with a superstar guard and on a good and definitely not a bad contract
Norm balled last year and his contract is great WTF is he talking about 🤣
Anyway we could trade for him? Hes a better fit then simons if we are trying to win games.
People keep saying we did bad but Norman and Covingtons contracts were so ass.
Covington was horrible for us too and basically got cut in LA.
Dafuq dude.
We got Keon, Bledsoe and Winslow
They didn’t even use lube
This is kinda what everyone was saying at the time. The dude is just revisiting a topic that is several years old xD
This will not age well if they trade those guys for harden lol. Though harden is harden so maybe it will
I wonder if he’ll still be saying this when Norm gets traded for Harden
