Merged: Portland Rumors, Served Hot

[BonesJones]

Perhaps on hold as Pacers shop it around and see if anyone will beat it.

is #15 and #20 more valuable than #27, #28, and Clarkson?

Probably. They'd have to like Harkless nearly as much as Randle.

Or we'd have to toss in a 3rd pick.

 

[GriLtCheeZ]

Yep, that makes sense if you don't have twitter. Didn't think of that.

I went to twitter typed in nba draft 2017 and it was the first or second one. Wanted to post it as quick as possible so I could be one of the cool kids, but now it looks like I'm getting my ask kicked after school.

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

Hoopshype saying Pacers/Lakers deal, Paul for Randle or Clarkson with 27th and 28th picks is at a standstill

Randle or Clarkson... smh... just offer both you thundercunts..

[BonesJones]

Hey don't you have a five team trade to construct or something?

Yeah, then I'll just create a fake Woj account, report it, and people will believe it haha.

 

[BonesJones]

Wait, it's Randle or Clarkson? We could beat that with #15, #20, and Harkless.

That's what I was thinking

If PG really is on the table for us, why are you stopping at 2017 picks? I mean, hell, 20+26 plus the Otis Thorpe Memorial 2019 and 2023 1sts unprotected may do something to move needles.

If you want to go "All-In for PG", there are some ways to do so. Sadly, may not be enough.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

Exactly what the thinking should be

It's risky though because George is being a Fucking diva and wants to be in LA, so why give up so much just to get a 6 month rental

My issue with Crabbe is his game doesn't improve and yeah yeah yeah great FG percentage, awesome but man I wanna see more with the ball in his hands, too many times he dribbles it out right back to dame or CJ. Great catch and shooter but for that contract he needs to be doing more. His defense is also very overrated

@GriLtCheeZ is this what you saw?

I just think he's an asset. What does JJ Redick do thats better than Crabbe? He's going to be making 15M+ and hes like 30

 

[H.C.]

Exactly what the thinking should be

can Crabbe even be traded?
He just had surgery. Doesn't that alone mean inorder to trade Crabbe it would have to be after he recovered via league rules?
If he can't be traded due to injury until he's recovered. ofc ET would be dangled more than Crabbe.
ET still the better player by a lot though.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I'm with you that it's risky. I'm even with you that I'm not sure PG is the best recipient of the Godfather Offer we may pull together.
I'm just saying, we're not stuck at 15/20/26+garbage. We can add future firsts

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Amick:

Kings will pick at #5 -- looking to move back from #10 for additional picks.

If we are really just aiming for Zach Collins, seems like this is the place to go.

I believe receiving teams can have the physical waived if they choose to. I could be wrong though, but injured players have been traded before.

You believe right

We're drafting 3 players aren't we.......

My issue with Crabbe is him not living up to his defensive potential, I think he has the ability to be solid.

[Haakzilla]

Ctrl + F5 works even better

 

[EGame]

Im ok with not getting George. Just dont see the point in trying to win it all in a year (which we wont cuz Warriors).

 

[Mediocre Man]

Having a nice slice of pizza, and heard Portland and Sacramento talking about 10. Portland trying to hold on to 15. No idea who target is. My own guess is Collins.

 

[GriLtCheeZ]

@GriLtCheeZ is this what you saw?

@Chris Craig This is the FAKE one I saw :
