There are some within the Blazers organization that believe the team may have ruined their reputation by issuing the infamous "memo" to the NBA's 29 other teams regarding Darius Miles.

However, one anonymous league executive doesn't believe that there will be "long term repercussions" for Portland.

"When you are an executive of another team, you are looking at Portland's roster and you are trying to figure out how you can get better. And I think on the margins there are going to be situations where people are going to be less proactive in dealing with Portland because of that, but on the whole, people are interested in their own deals they can put together.

"If they can find a way to make it beneficial they are going to do that."
