Trading Crabbe would be the opposite of "great." I feel like I'm taking crazy pills every time I have to defend the guy. I'd trade CJ first yeah I said it fuck you.

Seriously, you think Crabbe is better than C.J.? Or, do you just think we could get a lot more value in return for C.J.?

Personally, I'm just hoping we can find someone under the cap that will take on Crabbe's contract without having to give up anything of value (draft picks) to get them to do it. Something like Crabbe + our future 2nd round pick for their future 2nd round pick, but give the other team the option to swap the picks, depending on which one is better.

I agree. I'd rather move Turner, but I think it would cost the Blazers a lot more to move him.

Obviously CJ is better than Crabbe, I'm not stupid. I also wouldn't just trade him for anyone, but if Jimmy Butler were to become available, that's something I'd definitely be interested in.
 
Not my idea, but I like it and will borrow it.

Meyers traded for Anthony Tolliver. We my need to add a draft pick as sweetener.

Tolliver's contract only has one more season @ $8 million, but only $2 million is guaranteed.

We would save about $8 million in cap space next season, $10.5 million the next season and $11.2 million for the 19/20 season.

Cleveland’s pick could reduce the Blazers salaries by about $30 million over the next three seasons.

OK, but that doesn't explain why you want to keep Crabbe.

Dario Saric: A true facilitator. Very similar skill set to Ben Simmons.
Jordan Clarkson: Elite 6th man potential.
Mario Hezonja: floundering in Orlando. Still has big upside...

I'd love to get Saric over here, he's 22 & dude's legit! Dunno if Phi would part w/ him (I know he's a bit Simmons-esque but... MAYBE THAT'S why they would...?:dunno:)/not sure exactly what needs to happen/who would need to leave us (anyone except Dame, Cj, Nurk, Moe, Noah) to make it happen but... let's make it happen!:ygrin:

Clarkson would b a great addition.

I'd take a lil' gamble w/ Hezonja; if we don't have to give up much to get him... why not:wink:

I'd totally trade Harkless + MEM + CLE picks for Saric. He may be padding his stats on a team without other options right now, but he's already better than Harkless and will continue to improve. Mo has plateaued as a below average starting SF. He may someday get to average, but that's his ceiling. Saric is already an above average starter and will only get better. Plus, it would be a nice salary dump that would save us $6.5 million a year. PHI is dumb, but I don't even think they are that dumb.

I agree w/ all that you've said.

If it only took what you've posted to get Saric... I'd pull that trigger all day long!:smiley-beerchug: I like Moe but... IF that were THE deal... nice knowin' u Moe; good luck w/ wherever u land!:smiley-yippee:

TRUE. Phi IS dumb but probably not that dumb:wink:
 
..... or a slice of bacon. THAT is a trade, definitely in our favor.
 
I think Hayward, paul, griffin, and milsap change teams. Curry and Durant, and lowery and ibaka probably stay home. looks like a couple of restricted free agents might get offered the max this time around. detroits KCP is likely to get the same offer crabbe got from Brooklyn, noel, len and plumlee are all going to get paid dearly. the next tier down like last years parsons includes Galinari, wade, Teague and hill of Utah. Reddick waiters evans and holiday are available too. some older or injury prone names on the list might make AC's contract a more palatable option for someone in a trade but unsure we get value and cap savings in such a deal.

he is likely to go to boston and reunite with his college coach in stevens. young enough to get another max deal
after .

Kenneth Faried? Might be a good pick up.

he wont come here. he hates the blazers. remember getting the best point guard ever in nolan smith before him? he always has said that he loves it when he beats us.
 
What does everyone think of trying to get Draymond Green. GSW will have challenges trying to resign both max guys Durant and Curry, and resign or replace Iggy, Pechulia, Livingston and West.

They might look at our 3 picks (and Turner or Crabbe) as a way of balancing the checkbook!

Dame - CJ - Harkless - Green - Nurk!
