Neil Olshey asks for trust By nate092979 on Jun 30, 2021, 4:28pm PDT + Neil Olshey said something that I noticed throughout the press conference. The words "trust me" came out of his mouth. It seemed to be the main theme of the press conference. The things that have struck me about the press conference and about Neil Olshey himself throughout his Blazers tenure are that he tries to keep a lid on things, he evades responsibility for the specific actions that he takes, he blames others for actions he took, and he insinuates that other people are the decisionmakers when he was the one making the decisions.
