All of them are telling me. The Blazers are the best team in the league. They should win it all.

I can't believe it!
 
Lakers are kicking the Warriors butt without Kobe....
 
Zach Lowe said we could win the championship on his podcast with Bill Simmons. They both think we should add one more scorer though like Jeff Green or Wilson Chandler.

...I think Jeff Green would mesh well with this team/chemistry, get it done Neil!
 
It would take a 1st round pick, + 8-9 in salary (Trob, Claver, and Wright) I would do it for that.
Would really hate to see Robinson go though.

One thing I would be worried about is the Lillard factor. We know he is tight with Wright, and I assume TRob as well...do we get rid of more of his buddies? We need him in the right frame of mind. The NBA is a tough business, and hopefully he would realize they might all be gone next summer anyways. But to me those three and their salaries are the ones I would part with, mostly because as I said they could be gone this summer regardless.

Would you guys do McCollum, Meyers, and Claver for Jeff Green?

Yeah it diminishes our back-court. But Green can play 3 or 4, Batum can play 2 or 3, as can Barton.

Would love to keep T-Rob just for the different tough dimension that he brings, but that may be why he has some value too. I'm not sure those other guys have any at all.

Lillard/Blake
Matthews/Barton
Batum/Green
Aldridge/Green
Lopez/Kaman

with spot minutes for T-Rob at 4, and bench time for Wright and Freeland.

Looks like a championship contender to me.
 
Personally I would not include McCollum in a deal unless we were guaranteed to re-sign the player. Green is pretty damn good so I think he may opt out of his contract and demand too much for us to pay him this summer when we have so many other players to also re-sign.

Yup. I'd do pretty much any trade that brought Green in as our 6th man. Just wouldn't trade any starters or Blake/Kaman (unless we got a good PG/C coming back).
