My issue with this comparison is Houston didn't have a starting PG going in to this season, or a decent backup. It made sense to bring in a veteran to help all of their young kids. We have Ant, with Scoot backing him up, essentially making Brogdon 3rd string next season. With a very diminished role. Seems like an apples to pickles comparison.
 
I still believe that Ant doesn't fit as a pg, dominates the ball to much. Besides nscootnb is the future at PG, Brogdon would be a terrific back up. Anferno is a true shooting guard, but we have Shaedon for the future there. I believe we could acquire another young front court stud if we package Ant & some. Just my take is all.
 
Guru -- your right Ant is not a PG but that idiot coach Billups should be handing that duty and more minutes to Scoot so not Ant's fault Billups is stupid. Ant should be a SG who CAN handle the ball at times when Scoot and/or Brogs is on the bench and if Billups was smart that would be only 10 min or under a game . This all comes down to the fact Billups is too reliant on the vets cause a certain GM has it in his small pea sized brain at least that is the perception ( maybe fact ) that he thinks this team might be able to sneak into the play in tournament. I will admit maybe I am too hard on Cronin but until he proves me wrong I will continue to rip him to pieces when warranted.

This deadline Cronin should trade Brogs without a doubt to give Scoot the ball more so he can learn but Cronin should also maybe look to find a vet sitting at home or trade market who can play 10 to 15 minutes a game who can still be a mentor to Scoot but who will not really challenge him for minutes. I am not sold that Grant should be traded at the deadline unless it's a sweetheart deal cause not sure we can even get 75% value for him during the season. I also would not trade Williams unless its for a promising player who just needs minutes and 2 to 3 -- 2nd round picks but that is asking a lot for a player who cannot play again this season and is super injury prone. When Friday rolls around and if Brogs is still a Blazer then Cronin is a complete tool and should be fired plain and simple and if some fans do not get this then I am sorry to say your hopeless and your silly just like Cronin.


EDIT -- Sorry should not have said the last part I have changed it but the rest i stand by

I still think the rockets strategy is stupid.

The 11th place rockets is a model to build by?

Just paying attention to Jake this trade deadline and I think he and just about everyone reporting about us right now are carrying water for Joe who is likely telling every other front office that we're listening to offers but they have to really blow us away because we like what we have. I wouldn't be shocked if this wasn't posturing and Joe actually thinks this current roster makes sense but I lean more towards us moving Jerami and Malcolm after all of this posturing.

Just have to wait and see but I don't think Malolm and Jerami sit against Denver if there aren't offers on the table that Joe likes or just need a little more for Joe to like them... or the guys were honestly too injured to play.
 
RR7 -- your right I went a tad too far on the last sentence so I changed it but like I said I stand by the rest. If you want to debate me go for it but say that but just cause I got a tad out of hand does not mean you should have made your post either IF it was about me but assuming it was - LOL

Yeahhhh...saying that anyone who disagrees with a subjective opinion is objectively wrong makes one sound incredibly unreasonable.

Brogdon trade to Detroit for Joe Harris + Danilo Gallinari is confirmed.... Because if Malcom is still on the roster by Friday, then Joe and anyone who supports him are "idiots".
 
less than 72 hours to the deadline

my memory is kind of fuzzy so maybe I'm wrong about this, but is sure seems this trade deadline is completely dead when it comes to any believable rumors. Maybe it's a calm before the storm but I'm kind of thinking there will just be calm and no storm

We have already seen a few deals and do not feel like any of them were an overpay. Might be a quiet deadline.

For what it's worth, Cronin was at the Remix game Friday. He was not on his phone much.

The teams that would want upgrades don't have anything to trade. I don't expect much movement this deadline.

I don't understand this. Do they really think Brogdon will have more value this summer?

And the answer to "why" is not really that complicated. Scoot and Sharpe should not be sitting on the bench in a season when we will win 25 games.

I don't think Detroit got what they were asking for at the deadline for Jerami Grant. Wasn't it something like Josh Hart and a 1st round pick? I suppose it's all rumors.

But in the end it was the 2025 Milwaukee pick (and anything else?).

I would rather them trade Malcolm as well, but I don't want them to give him away for seconds if that's all they can get. And it's totally reasonable for them not to value a late 24 1st and see if they can get more stuff in the off-season. All the contenders that currently have nothing to trade will all have a 1st round pick open up - not to mention how much easier it is to make trades when you can carry 20 players on a roster.

And while I'd rather Scoot and Shaedon be playing - I don't think them playing 5 less MPG is going to hurt their development. There are just as many cases of guys developing into good players after spending time on the bench versus getting thrown into the fire for 35+MPG. I just don't believe that. Scoot is averaging 27 MPG and Sharpe 33 MPG, and we know all three of them (including Brogdon) will miss games down the stretch for various reasons.

Yes. They are saying there will be more opportunities for trades in the summer. As far as Scoot and Shaedon go, Scoot has been learning and improving his game just fine coming off the bench. I think it’s a foregone conclusion he’s going to start next season. Shaedon can’t stay healthy this season, but when he has been, he’s started and gotten his minutes. Keeping Brogdon doesn’t change that.
 
Seems weird that Brogdon was in the same draft class as Ben Simmons. He was 24 year old rookie.

so... the offer got worse. great analogy and very applicable.
 
The way things are starting to sound around the draft conversations is the Blazers should be going after picks in the 2025 and 2026 draft classes.

Yes - could have told you this 3 months ago
 
I think the argument that Brogdon will have more value this summer is bullshit. I don't even find it very credible his value will remain the same. I don't believe it

I also will need convincing there are more trades in the summer than at the deadline

and Marang's argument sure seems to hinge on the false idea that 2024 first's is all that will be available for Brogdon this week
