Notice Olshey's Top 6 Keys

[BonesJones]

Well, Green would be the player replacing Batum. I would suspect a 8-10 mil offer for him.

Isn't he only like 6'5?

6'6" but is long like Batum.

Yeah I don't think Green and Wes playing together would work.. They're the same exact player. I think if you traded for Green you wouldn't sign Wes and you'd go and sign a SF

Everyone has to go sometime right? I like Wes but it sounds good to me!

 

[BonesJones]

A SF that could drive to score and kick it out to Green and Lillard would be the perfect fit. Problem with Nic is he can only drive to pass, if he gets by his defender at all

 

[Blazinaway]

Would anyone be opposed of Portland trading Batum to SAS for a resigned Green and Patty Mills?

why?

Then try to trade Nic for Tyreke Evans, he plays PG/SF/SG

That's silly. Of course they can play together. Why wouldn't you want all that intensity on the basketball court together? It would be amazing.

I would look for better options. But, No.

Because if one of your stars is struggling, they'll key on the other one and shut down the offense. Its extremely easy to only key on 2 guys anyway, but you will have nothing offensively of one of them struggles. Green and Wes can't create their own shot or for anyone else.

I've never been a Tyreke fan.. Seems like a bad locker room presence and has never been a winner.. His skillset would fit those guys well though
