Re: David Lee

Hmm. Blazers making a push for Wallace.

Joel and Travis? for GW

Then get Lee in a S&T for Blake and cash


Run Rudy, Roy and Bayless at the point for a year to see if it can work.
 
Re: Quick on 1080(take it for w/e it's worth)

I wouldn't mind trading Rudy in a deal to get him. But we need to keep Nic if Rudy goes. Nic can play some 2.

Does Rudy and Travis work for Wallace?
 
Re: David Lee

if we sign Lee.. I would think that Joel would be included in a package. Cause it would be pointless to have 4 people man that two positions making that much money.
 
Re: Quick on 1080(take it for w/e it's worth)

Outlaw + all of this years draft picks FTW!
 
Re: Quick on 1080(take it for w/e it's worth)

I'd really hate to lose Batum, but I just might pull the trigger on it. 50/50 right now.

Batum is such a good defender it's just hard to lose that. And as a rookie, wasn't half bad at all last year.

Ughh

beat me too it MM.. it would have to mean Joel is going somewhere.
 
Re: Quick on 1080(take it for w/e it's worth)

Batum is more valuable than Rudy IMO since we're going to have to get past Kobe and LeBronze if we want to win rings.

but what would it be? We don't have that big RLEC to trade anymore? Would we take back Nazr still?

We have cap space. We can absorb. We're all good.

In fact we could potentially send just Rudy to Charlotte for Crash.
 
Re: Quick on 1080(take it for w/e it's worth)

Say it will take Rudy and Batum for Gerald, what would it take to get Charlotte to add Gerald Henderson?

Not really. If you think about it, what's your real goal for Batum? IMO, if he turns out as good as Wallace, we would be extremely fortunate. So when it comes to making the decision, if that is what it would take, that is a no brainer. Pull the trigger.

I think it's a little bit harder than a no brainer for KP and the gang since they value Nicolas a lot, IMO. What's going to be the difference for them from the trade deadline and now in their value of Batum's potential versus Wallace now?
Is KP feeling the pressure? I mean, I'd give up Nicolas in the right deal but we're just fans. I'd love to have KP answer that question of what the real goal for Nicolas is.

But he is a poor 3 pt shooter?


C'mon people, stick to your guns damnit.

Not really great. He averages about 1.5 taken per game, which means he plays inside out. So I don't see it being a big problem. For Andre Miller, I would see it as being a problem.

If the plan were to deal Przybilla (with or without Outlaw/Webster) in order to get Wallace and then they signed Lee, I'd consider that a pretty brilliant off-season.

Wait, I have more

Joel and Travis for Wallace

Blake and cash for Lee

Webster and a pick for Sessions

Sessions/Bayless
Roy/Rudy
Wallace/Batum
Aldridge/Lee
Oden/Lee
 
Re: Quick on 1080(take it for w/e it's worth)

I'd offer:

Rudy+1st Round Pick+Euros+Cash

Or

Batum+1st+Euros+Cash

Or

Any combination of Outlaw/Webster/Blake+1st+Euros+Cash

Do we really want to lose Joel?!

no.. but I highly doubt that we would be a S & T route for LEE.. so if we got Lee and Kept him.. I would rather use an asset to shore up another need.

He was being sarcastic.
 
Re: David Lee

I wouldn't do it if it meant losing Przybilla. Joel is too valuable as long as Oden remains foul and/or injury prone.

I like all those players.. however our Shooting would be atrocious with that starting 5. Aldridge being the 2nd best perimeter shooter would scare me..

I'd have to think long and heard about trading Rudy in a deal for Crash. Would much rather trade Outlaw, Blake, Webster, and all the cash Bob Johnson desires ($3 mil, max).

Me too. I'd much rather deal any number of Blazers, but they're going to want someone cheap and skilled. I'm not giving up Batum and we have a real need for Bayless at this point and I believe Batum will be as good or better than crash.

I agree, but I have two concerns:

1) Joel is still badly needed if Oden continues to progress slowly.

2) LA would take a beating at center and he'd be pretty darn unhappy about it. Plus, he scores a lot from the outside and we wouldn't want our center that far out.
 
Re: Quick on 1080(take it for w/e it's worth)

Wallace would be with the Blazers for at least 3 years and not count over $10M against the cap until year 3. Such a good deal.

UGHHHHH
 
Re: Quick on 1080(take it for w/e it's worth)

Rudy, Outlaw, Cash

DO NOT TRADE BATUM.

Milwaukee would have to be colluding with Portland in order to do that deal. Absolutely awful trade for Milwaukee.

Yeah, I agree. I added a pick to it. I think that might fly. Sessions, Ridnour and Jennings? That would be odd to go into a season with. If Milwaukee can get a cheap contract and a 1st round pick I think they might do it.
 
Re: Quick on 1080(take it for w/e it's worth)

stupid question - since we can offer unbalanced trades, how unbalanced can they be?
