To me, the great disparity in perimeter shooting is a huge advantage to this trade. The Blazers need a major upgrade in perimeter shooting if they want to advance in the playoffs.

I'm not disagreeing with that ... it was all of the other stuff Beerboy was claiming that made it sound a little too much like he's Jameer's agent.
 
I don't get this deal, does it make POR better? Does adding Nelson suddenly make POR a more formidable playoff contender? negligible better? maybe, I guess?

and POR gives ORL thier #21 pick to boot? Sorry, but I think Miller even at 6 years senior to Nelson is a BETTER PLAYER.

So POR balks at taking on Jefferson to get Parker but makes this deal for Nelson?

Idiotic....

I'd balk at it too. The last thing this team needs is another overpaid, under-performing 2 guard with no contract flexibility in the short term.
 
I'm sure we'd all prefer a bigger upgrade, like Parker or Nash or even Billups, but if one of those doesn't happen I think Nelson would be a good move for the Blazers and would leave them other tradeable pieces (Rudy, Wes, Camby, Nico) to further improve the team.

WWBRD (What would Brandon Roy do?)

I think Nelson is a significant upgrade over Miller. He's a better rebounder, takes it to the hole and gets fouled, great FT shooter, much better 3 pt shooter, better defender, tougher/fearless, and has experience playing with a great big man, and YOUNGER.

Would you guys prefer we keep Miller for one year and then be in this same situation at the trade deadline or next off-season (without having Miller's expiring deal to use)?
 
I've been advocating this trade for a while. I think Nelson fits in better with our current core. Miller is smart basketball IQwise, but I hate his late game iso.

I disagree. He's at least as good as Miller at almost everything and better than Miller at something we really need... shooting! And he's younger and will be year for several years.

I havent heard anything about Jameer as a teammate, but he's gotta be better than loner Miller.
 
I don't like it. I'm hoping it's a smoke screen. Of all the point guards, Nelson is probably the least appealing to me. I'd rather have Devon Harris, and that's not saying much.
 
If I was on a team, I'd always want a guy like Andre Miller as my teammate
 
I am all for Jameer, but I want to keep the pick, maybe give them our 2nd? I don't know how realistic that is though. Maybe we could throw in a guy like armon and the 2nd. I would love to get Jameer to Portland, but it seems like a lot when we already have Andre and we could get a quality backup PF with the 21st pick. It is an interesting trade though. If we did this, I would love to see us swing a deal with the Bucks to get the #10 pick.
 
You people kill me with the Miller love. How many times has he been out of the first round?

Whisper on Miller and #21 for Nelson... Blazers would like to expand deal.

Which means that Crapzano will spin it that the Blazers could have gotten D.Howard also but the front office fucked it up. :devilwink:

Bass?

Anderson?

(As an aside: anyone still think Anderson was a throw-in on the Carter trade? I felt he was a better prospect than Courtney Lee at the time of the trade, and history has determined that I was right. For once. :) )

Hedo? Haha.

I would love to get Anderson, otherwise I think we're getting shafted in that deal, especially if they somehow turn around and deal Miller for Smith.
 
A funny thing about if the Orlando Magic used pieces from a trade with the Blazers to acquire Smith is that it's how the Hawks got Smith in the first place: it was a larger trade, but they got the 17th pick from Detroit in the Rasheed Wallace trade.
