Blazers trade for Afflalo and Alonzo Gee

[BBert]

You do realize I can change your moniker to BieberBert, right?

LOLOLOL

Irrelevant. Alonzo Gee doesn't take enough 3s to even matter. Other teams don't care if he shoots. Even if Batum is shooting bad this year he's still a threat.

Nic is not a threat. Teams are leaving him wide open daring him to shoot. Its having an impact on our court spacing and opportunities for other players. Thats the main reason we've gone from one of the best offenses in the league to above average. I think it was a strong factor in the Afflalo trade as now we could play him in crunch time if need be.

Where's Blazer4ever to piss on our parade?

I mean, we did just lose two young studs with endless potential, after all.

There has to be someone who hates this, right?

Let's hear from the Loyal Opposition. I'll even buy them a beer.

if Nic keeps shooting this bad don't be surprised if his minutes go down a decent bit with Afflalo taking those minutes

Great, another mid-range jump shooter.

Dwight Jaynes is taking a crap on it.

Except once again Olshey just traded away Lillard's closest friends on the team.

I hope Lillard never becomes friends with Aldridge.

Blazer doubters usually only post threads after a 3 game losing streak, then disappear when we start winning

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Rice can pronounce 'Gee'.

Mike Rice loves to say "Alonzo Gee" so I hope he stays.

Sessions going to WAS for the Professor. George Karl is doing his damndest not to tank.

The Professor is toast. Think George wants to get the team passing and learning from Andre but he won't win them any games. Might help them keep their protected pick.

OMG, HomersLovesBieber..........

Have I mentioned what a great job you're doing lately Sly?

Only two reasons to hate this:

1. It's arron not aaron so we can't pronounce his name a-a-ron

2. If you're a fan of players who are flashy

exactly, Afflalo has a deadly mid range game and is also a good 3 pt shooter, who will Stotts rather have n the floor a good bit of the time? Afflalo or a 27% piece of garbage 3 pt shooter "this yr" in Nic

 

[rasheedfan2005]

Ill miss the thrill and truck but saw something like this comming and glad we got a decent rotation player for them. I think im most sad we may not get sabonis now.

 

[BBert]

Dwight Jaynes is taking a crap on it.

Haha. Awesome.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I don't want to head back into the morass of the Official Thread, but I'm looking for BGD's Jaynes multi-player trade quote of "you can keep stacking garbage higher, but it's still garbage".

Our garbage heap just got us a legit 6th man.

I wasn't talking about Afflalo, I was talking about Gee. Gee isn't going to play, at all.

Haha! You made me look to see if he actually changed my name!

This one is apparently a good mid-range jump shooter. Not like that other guy.

We were talking about Gee, not Afflalo. Are you even following?

Shocking news.

we were at first, it changed, please follow

Gary Neil would be a nice 3rd point. He's likely to be moved today.

That dude is not a PG and is a headcase/locker room cancer...

 

[SlyPokerDog]

This trade will open things up so Meyers can play a little point guard.

Wes and Afflalo can start making crushing smaller guards on the block a POR staple.

 

[TBpup]

Anayltics are such a big part of the game and Portland uses them a lot.

Wes and Afflalo can start making crushing smaller guards on the block a POR staple.

Reminiscent of Smitty and Bonzi.

Man, my biggest fear is chemistry. If they're both satisfied with their respective roles, we'll be golden

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Wes and Afflalo can start making crushing smaller guards on the block a POR staple.

Reminds me of back when JR Rider posted up guards like suckas in 1998-99.

I'm not even arguing against Afflalo, just Gee and his crappy shooting. If you're going to try to hold an argument you can't change the subject halfway through.

Did this trade kill the S2 servers? I'm seeing database errors left and right

I know this was posted before but for those that missed it
