Mundane Monday

Sounds like the Blazers may not use their MLE this year. I can't decide if I like that or not. On the one hand, I want them to be as good a team as possible this season, and a Mid-Level Exception could bring in a decent enough vet to give us a chance at being a better team. On the other hand, cap space is golden under the new CBA, and any financial commitments beyond this season directly impact our cap position. Quality free agents in the MLE range are slim pickings this off season, so maybe we're better off waiting until next year and going after someone like Desmond Mason. Assuming, of course, that somehow, some way, by some miracle, we can't pull off a Darius-for-Desmond trade. Let's keep our fingers crossed, shall we?
