Blazers losing the "Arms Race"?

Aaron. Afflalo.

Aaron. Afflalo.

That would be my dream scenario. I don't know why he would be available though.

Well we sit and watch other Western conference teams get better, Memphis gets Jeff Green for a worthless expiring Prince and a highly protected first that may do nothing until 2019, Brandan Wright goes to Suns for similar. We have these type of assets to use in a trade, I would like to add a piece before the trade deadline - what to you say Mr Olshey?

I don't think this team has to make a move. They still have yet to max out what they do have. Until that happens, I don't see it being essential to do something.

I like him over Chandler.

I would openly welcome a solid rotational player to sure up our bench. Our bench is still not up to par and with all of these injuries it sure would help.

And I don't think chemistry will be an issue with this team. We have our leaders in LA and Dame and no player coming in will affect that.

I don't think olshey will trade for anyone with a contract past this year. My guess is he'll go after oneal and maybe allen if he decides to come back.

Ask Indiana how trading away Granger for Evan Turner worked out for them last season.

Or adding Bynum

 

[KingSpeed]

Our bench is more than Blake and Kaman. We've had Aldridge, Batum, Freeland, and Lopez miss multiple games and we are 28-8. Our depth is underrated.

 

[MickZagger]

Mid-season trades are really hit and miss. Sheed to Detroit worked. Shaq to Phoenix didn't.

Those were huge moves. Were just looking for a little bench upgrade.

Pretty much anybody that's been traded this season would be more productive for us than CJ - JR Smith, Waiters, Brewer, Green, Wright, shit, even Prince. We still need one more major bench player before heading into the POs.

Brewer and Green were worth our first round draft pick. (assuming it ends up in the late 20's) But that is about it.
