Daryl Morey is knocking...

SI (via RealGM):

"To win the title, you need to have multiple guys like Harden," Morey said. "Before, we had zero. The most important thing now is to get another foundation player. We have a lot of young players who could take a step forward [but] we are a step away from being a contender. We need to just keep being aggressive."

You have to assume he views LMA as a serious target with a "rebuilding" Blazers. You browse ClutchFans.Net and it's obvious who the fans want and it is LMA.

Though, they have nothing on that roster outside Harden that comes close to his talent. They dealt their picks to OKC and have a few 6'8" PF's they're willing to deal, one with a major anxiety issue to boot.

You have to like Morey's aggressiveness. But that doesn't give him the excuse to offer insulting packages. They don't have the assets to land another "foundation player."

Who would have thought that Kevin Martin and Jeremy Lamb plus some okay draft picks would be enough to get Harden though.

OKC will really be hating that deal when Martin is injured in a couple months.

I don't think they're loving it right now.

They aren't, but I think they'll be going into full meltdown when Martin gets injured..... again.

Fans over at Clutchfans.Net are orgasming at the thought of LMA on their team.

"They'll get Carmelo'd"

They realize that he isn't a free agent until after the 2014 season?
