BRING PORZINGIS HOME

Fine with moving Harkless if he brings something of value back....but he's certainly not 1st on my list of players to trade.

In case no one wants to click

Talks between New York and Portland are believed to be in the early stages, but at least one scenario discussed involved an additional player from Portland being sent in a trade, according to sources. Portland's Moe Harkless is one player who was discussed in a possible trade scenario, sources told ESPN.

It is unclear which players outside of Harkless have been discussed. It's worth noting that the Blazers have nearly $133 million in guaranteed contracts on their books for the 2017-18 season, so they may be looking to shed salary in any transaction involving their first-round pick.

Harkless isn't an untouchable of course but beyond Vonleh he is probably the one I would most like to keep after our big 3.

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

Hernangomez!

Picks/Mo for cap space and mediocore talent (KOQ) is trash.

 

[PDXFonz]

My theory regarding trade rumors is even more meaningful under Olshey: If you hear about it, it probably isn't happening.

 

[julius]

As with all trade rumors, other then it being probably made up, it depends greatly on who they get in return.

 

[Scalma]

Hernangomez!

Picks/Mo for cap space and mediocore talent (KOQ) is trash.

Hernangomez is part of their core, I think.

Harkless and a pick is a pretty valuable package. KOQ is worth maybe the 26th pick.

 

[Strenuus]

Hernangomez!

Picks/Mo for cap space and mediocore talent (KOQ) is trash.

THe knicks are trash, so is Hernangomez.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

So what I get from that is that we're trading all our picks to get teams to take the players we signed last year off our hands. Yay.

 

[Scalma]

The Portland Trail Blazers are willing to trade away one or more of their three first round draft picks if they could land a proven veteran or other valuable assets, a league source told The Oregonian/OregonLive. Despite a large payroll heading into the 2017-18 season the team isn't interested in a simple salary dump.

For you accountants.

Hernangomez is not trash. He was a double/double machine when inserted into the starting lineup.

Neil used the Sixers to play the Nuggets.

It sounds to me like maybe we're using the Knicks/Nets to play against each other.

Of all the contracts we handed out last summer, Moe's should be last on the priority list to move.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Of all the contracts we handed out last summer, Moe's should be last on the priority list to move.

Absolutely agree. Problem is that his is the only one that probably looks good in other team's eyes.

I personally don't think Turner's is that bad though. I could see teams wanting him without us having to give up picks.

 

[Scalma]

Of all the contracts we handed out last summer, Moe's should be last on the priority list to move.

Unless of course, as reported above, the team isn't looking at salary dumps, and just wants value in return. Then Harkless is one of the first on that list.

 

[Chris Craig]

Knick get:
Allen Crabbe
Meyers Leonard
Moe Harkless
15th pick

Blazers get
Carmelo Anthony
Kyle O'quinn
Willy Hernangomez
Future 2nd

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

If you can get Hernangomez - the 15th will likely go - and grab Jordan Bell with either of the picks we have left.

 

[Scalma]

Trading any of our firsts for Hernangomez would be a steal for Portland. If New York really is that dumb, wow...but I'll take it.

 

[Shaboid]

Knick get:
Allen Crabbe
Meyers Leonard
Moe Harkless
20th pick

Blazers get
Carmelo Anthony
Kyle O'quinn
Willy Hernangomez
Future 2nd

Not a huge Melo fan, but I'd be okay with that. I might even throw in pick #26. It would definitely make things interesting in our division, not that that even means anything.

 

[Rhal]

This sounds to me like NY has a leaky front office, i'm shocked by that, and they want Mo.

 

[Trackjack]

Trading any of our firsts for Hernangomez would be a steal for Portland. If New York really is that dumb, wow...but I'll take it.

Yea that would another steal for Olshey. We be set at center for awhile with Nurk and Hernangomez.

 

[Mediocre Man]

This is not a rumor. It's an assumption from the sn article which mentions Harkless

Don't need to. The "source" is assuming.
