A couple All-Stars tell Aldridge they want to play with him, Lillard in Portland

Re: A couple All-Stars tell Aldridge they want to play with him, in Portland, at the

Durant said he wants both Lillard and LMA with him on Team USA this summer.

Durant/LMA/Lillard isn't a bad big three.

Trade Batum to OKC as a part of the Durant deal, because Durant doesn't want to have to carry his team like this every year.

Plus, there is the LMA/Durant Texas connection. Although they didn't play together as Longhorns, LMA did play a big role in recruiting Durant.

The green font runs througheth.

Wall just signed a huge contract, Irving hasn't.

 

[BigGameDamian]

Off season move: Carmelo for Batum and Mathews? I'm sure the two players are Carmelo and John Wall. Carmelo wants to come to Portland to play with Lillard and Aldridge!

 

[BigGameDamian]

I could see Kobe landing here. What would it take? Just us willing to take that contract??

Oh that would be very interesting to say the least. Kobe is a renaissance man though. I don't think Kobe would come to another team for a championship he just wants to kill them. Thats the difference between him and a player like LBJ.

Barton for carmelo
Crabbe for Durrant
Leonard for LeBron

Everyone signs for vet minimum because its all about keeping Portland fans happy, not money.

Dude..... those are all small forwards. Who plays center?

Lillard and rolo get the start Aldridge or melo comes off bench. I think melo would be the 6th man as he can just carry then bench offensively. Genius plan, why am I not gm?

Way to hold it down for the rest of the totally unrealistic Blazer homers.

unlike you cmeese who if I remember from the old fan site wanted to trade LaMarcus for Jimmy Butler or Harrison Barnes? (cough, cough) Now those were some reality checks right there!

Carmelo makes sense as a guy who would maybe want to come here. Wall doesn't to me. Washington is a team moving in the right direction. I suspect the other guy was a guy who has been talking Damian up a bit the last couple months. Kobe.

That's a name that popped in my head as well.

Kobe has been talking up Dame. Kobe wants to win another championship. He won't be able to do that with the Lakers. It makes sense to me.

If Kobe comes here, we won't either.

That would test the intestinal fortitude of blazer fans.

Not saying it will or should happen, just saying that the name makes sense if you're tossing out All-Stars that might want to come here.

Or, it could just be the media trying to create hype with no real names or sources, because the team is faltering.

One of the two.

I have traveled this country far and wide, from sea to shining sea, and the one thing I have learned is that every NBA superstar wants to live in Portland, Oregon, where the state motto is either "The Union" or "It flies with its own wings" or "She flies with her own wings" or "One flies with ones own wings."

Please remind me how much is Kobe getting paid each of the next two years?

We aren't gutting our team for an old over the hill injury prone Kobe Bryant.

I hope to god.

Or you should just get on the bandwagon that clearly every All-Star wants to come here.

As well they should. Now, If there were some way for Kobe to renounce his ridiculous contract and come here for the $5mil we have to offer, I'd be listening.

I'll just throw this one out there.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

“I know all the positions on the floor, especially from the 2 spot. It allows me to not exert so much energy dribbling the ball, especially at the top of the key.”

Irving said the players go through drills every day at practice where he is playing off the ball.
“Me being at the 2 spot just opens up the lane for our bigs and our shooters in the corner,” he said.

Turn in your Blazer fandom card. Don't ever mention that rapist fuck and our team in the same sentence ever again.

Repped!!

The only thing Kobe ever raped was our defense and title chances.

Obama's talking about raising minimum wage.

I see this thread taking a new detour.... by the way, you ever read the statement that Kobe gave to police?? not very exonerating...

This might be the one move that would make me turn in my fan card and start watching figure skating.
