Jabari Parker

Welcome to our community

Be a part of something great, join today!

He'll fit with the Blazers perfect. We just love getting questionable young talent to develop!
 
Still saying Leonard, Harkless and protected 1st for him. Play him at backup 4. Worst case scenario, it's a salary dump of those 2 guys when Parker walks.
 
and who would run the offense on the second unit? Parker? That trade doesn't make us better and it adds money to our payroll tax.
 
Flame away:

(A writer from TheAthletic Chicago)

Jabari for ET straight up? Why would Chicago do that?

If they wanted ET + some combination of Swanigan/Trent/Aminu/Future 2nds, I'd do it in a heartbeat and just cut Parker.
 
That just means you fucked up badly earlier. So you should still be fired.
If Olshey pulled off Turner for Parker straight up then it is Chicago's GM(s) (GarPax) that should be fired. I'll resurrect a statue for Olshey on that one even though you're right that Turner is his fault to begin with. There is some value in being able to fix your mistakes.
 
You're ignoring potential financial reasons for doing so.

So losing ET and then cutting Parker improves us this year how? Sounds like a definite trip to the lottery and then we lose a tradable asset as well. Turner may be over paid, but he is producing pretty decent this year and runs the second unit. I doubt we win last nights game without Turner.

See this is why having multiple threads of the same topic is stupid.
 
He suggested Parker for Turner and a second. I’d be all over that but I think Chicago would ask for more. Still think they’d be more interested in Meyers and Moe.

I would be all for any combination of those if we didn't have to give up a 1st.

Heck I would give up a 1st if they took all 3 for RoLo and Parker. That basically allows us to re-shape the role players this off-season.
 
ESPN RPM-wise pretty much the worst PF anyone could find.

Year +/- Rank at PF
2018-2019 -4.17 93rd of 93
2017-2018 -2.88 78th of 89
2016-2017 -0.78 38th of 67
2015-2016 -3.19 54th of 56
2014-2015 -4.34 43rd of 45
 
I know, I wasn't aiming it at you it's just that all of this has been discussed already as to why.

Well you responded to my post and i'm not going to read tthrough various threads and posts for an answer. If you don't want to answer that's fine but then just say so.

You are proving my point, if this discussion was all contained to one thread we wouldn't have this problem.

I am on record as saying that if we can get an expiring contract for Turner or Leonard (and maybe Harkless) without giving up a draft pick I will take it no matter who the player is coming back. I don't care if it makes us slightly worse this year (even though it probably wouldn't) because it would force Stotts to give developmental minutes to the younger guys and I believe that would suit this team better long term instead of trying to make ET fit in a system that doesn't play to any of his strengths. If he only played with the 2nd unit it might be different but then he'd only be playing 12 minutes a game and making $18 million next year.
 
Parker is a very talented player who was on a rise in Milwaukee till the injury derailed him. Chicago was a bad fit, but he was playing OK, even though the sitch in Chicago is unraveling by the minute, and a total clusterfuck. I would welcome his talent, and see if fresh air and playing with a top notch leader is just the medicine Jabari needs.

Curious as to why these guys arent getting slammed by the same people who slam KS aNd others for doing this.
Surely the posters here are not biased and are fair right????

FAMS!!!!
