Feels like the Gasol ship has sailed and if it hasn't it should. If he hasn't accepted by now he's not hot for the idea. Hope neil focuses on trades because there's not much left on the market as far as bigs are concerned.
 
If Neil can bring Nikola Vucevic for anyone not named Lillard,CJ or Davis then he would be able to call this summer a success.
I really like Vucevic, he would help complete a nice offensive trio.

But there's no way in hell...
 
How pissed is this board going to be when the Blazers match on Meyers? I think Neil has to match on our Rfa's. Obviously, cap space doesn't do much for us. Having young players under contract that other teams want is the way to go when looking for upgrades.
 
Biyombo got the same deal from the Magic that Evan Turner got from us.

Signing and trading the great white myth is the only way to go
 
Also McLemore can probably be had for cheap right now. Would be a Olshey type move and give you insurance in case some idiotic team maxes out Crabbe.
 
A little Clutchfans to help you relax (thread on Ryan Anderson, a little over half of them don't like the move):

No one wants anderson. No one wants bev. No one wants Ariza. No one wants brewer. No one wants DMO.
I mean... not only are the all mediocre players... but they aren't that fun to watch. And frankly, they aren't that likeable as people.

To which pippendagimp replied...
no one wanted d'antoni either..

That's kind of what I was thinking, except the "trading" portion of that might be in a few months. Whether it is a sign and trade or a sign and a trade later, it allows us to not have Meyers and get an asset for him.
 
That would be great! works well for both teams too imo.
For real. I'd rather Dieng than Monroe or Vucevic. He shoots over 70% at the rim and has range out to the 3pt line on his jumper. Plus, he's a good, sound rim protector. He's only 26 so he fits are age range and he's an Olshey type of acquisition.

If we could sign and trade Meyers for him then we'd have $13M left in space afterwards to continue to add. It'd be easy to go after Gasol or trade some capspace for Millsap.

Is sign and trade even possible nowadays? don't you need to wait till December after you re-sign a player?

No.. that's only if you sign them and don't trade them immediately. The sign and the trade is basically simultaneous. That's how it works.
 
Has anyone else seen the backlash from Nfl writers about how much Nba players are making this summer? I can't believe someone needs to explain why to them like this

 
Shit man I guess times haven't changed as much as I thought. Really thought we had a shot at landing Horford when I heard that Boston and Washington were our competition.
