We got a guy that will push Ish and Bryce down in the rotation. We take it.

Bertans is owed 16 million next year, but only 5.25 million, if waived by next year.
Mann makes 5 million as well, so we take back roughly 10 million in salary for next year.

I think we might still need to get 1 more player based on trade machine failing the trade, not sure yet.

Dont know much about Tre Mann, but just looking at his stats he looks similar to last years version of Theo Maledon and hes already 23.

Idk, unless Tre Mann is actually decent or they are getting some 2nd rounders this seems like giving away Hayward for free.

Looks like Mann is signed for about 5 million for next year then is a RFA. Bertrans would make 16 million next year but only 5 million is guaranteed.

I liked Hayward but it just never worked here. Hopefully he gets a good playoff run in OKC.

nice to receive a young player with upside for Gordon

1 out 2 in will require waiving someone to open a roster spot, no?

We finally acquired a backup point guard. I'm guessing we see something in Tre Mann. He was really good as a rookie, but hasn't had much opportunity since then.

You either let him expire for nothing, sign him over the summer to let him sit injured while you make another go at trade, or you flip him into assets now. Happy we took the third option. Fine with this.

OKC just has a ton of good players, it's not like he was buried on the bench for the Blazers. I like the swing.

We send out 31.5 million this year only take back 20. So Mitch saved the new owners a ton of money here, cheaper then buying out Gordon lol.

That can't be the whole deal, more pieces have to be involved.

Disappointing lack of meaningful contribution. Surprised we got anything. Welcome new guys.

Would not mind seeing what Poku can do in these last 40 games. Can't be worse than Thor and Mensah.

I like the idea of Tre Mann. A good young up and coming pg who will get better with more consistent playing time.

I remember Lillard raving about Mann after he spent some time with him during the summer at his camp. We will see, it would be nice to end up having at least one contributor on the team from the 2021 draft.
