Regarding Quick's report about his conversation with Nurk in which he was told about a conversation Nurk had with Cronin in which Cronin supposedly said that he wasn't planning on trading CJ or Nurk and was planning on building around Dame, CJ and Nurk. I'm just hoping that the conversation with Nurk went something like Nurk asking if Cronin was planning on trading him or CJ and Cronin telling Nurk that along with Dame they are the current core of the team and the plan at that time wasn't to move any of them... just standard GM spin keeping morale where it needs to be with a player who has shown his game to be very affected by how valued he feels, a guy who pops off at the mouth and could totally poison the locker room if told something like "every option is on the table".

Cronin was probably just managing players like he should be but there is also the horrifying chance that Cronin and Olshey have been of the same mind about that trios potential all along. For the record even if they aren't traded now, I very highly doubt that Cronin's evaluation of the viability of this core is as dogmatically positive as Olshey's.
 
Look Neil is a moron. Lets no the do what ifs.
 
Keep an eye on Utah here with Roco. Just lost Ingles to a nasty knee injury, might be for the season.

They don't have a first to trade until 2026. Also with all of the teams reportedly interested in RoCo I think his value is a little higher than a late first.

He's expiring, so a 1st is likely the best we can do. And only playoff teams would be interested, so they'll all be later 1sts.
Although, I do agree that I would prefer one sooner than what they can offer.
 
Trent is averaging 17/3/2 with 2 steals while shooting 38% from 3 on 8 attempts per game. Fuck you Neil.

Well, Norm is averaging 18/3/2 with one steal a game and shooting .392 on threes. In about a minute and a half less per game. However, Trent's advanced defensive statistics have improved a lot since he went to Toronto and are a lot better than Powell's . Maybe if we had got a different coach sooner, we would still have Trent,

Give me Trents age and height all day long.
 
Joe Ingles went down. Utah could be desperate for some help. I wonder if Roco + Mclemore could tempt them to move Clarkson (with us re-routing to a third team). I don't think they have much else on their roster that is interesting and have already traded a few future picks. Being over the tax and old, their future looks kind of bleak.
 
Utah's season has really turned sour

Their record was 28-10, which is a 60 win pace that had them at 3rd seed. They have now lost 11 of their last 13 games and then Ingles gets hurt. They are only 1 game ahead of Denver and Dallas and could sip down to 6th seed in the next few days

Yeah it seems they cannot handle at all missing Gobert or Mitchell. Normal to a point, but they have been worse than expected.

Utah looks to be mired in the same kind of mediocrity that Portland is, only a higher level of mediocrity. That is to say they are a much better regular season team than a playoff team. They have made the playoffs 5 straight years but their playoff record is 19-26. Worse, is the 3 times they advanced to the 2nd round their record there was 3-12. They are a pretender, not a contender, at least they have been to this point
 
Gotta get value for CJ from some of these desperate teams. NY and NO, I'm looking at you!

The model of consistency even after his collapsed lung. He's been hovering around these same numbers for 7 years now.

Uncanny stability. No deviation whatsoever over his career.

Fournier, walker or burks, and their 1st this year

Hart, sato, Murphy and their 1st

I believe both get us out of the tax, get an ok rotational player, and a pick. Then we try to get them to bid against each other

i have less than zero interest in Fournier or his contract. Or Kemba's contract for that matter. Randle or bust from NY.

the article is a bunch of speculation and reiterates his nonsense claims about CJ being a negative asset. It also says NY will be Dame's destination if he doesn't get extended this summer.

not buying it. NO's interest in CJ might be real, but the rest of the article was bullshit.
 
Pincus also mentioned that we are shopping Nurk/Roco and notes that NO can simply absorb them into a TPE without giving back Portland anything in return.

Alright then.

lol this guy.
 
Dort is a tough defensive player but isnt a good shooter. And he's 6'3
If we trade CJ either solo or in a pkg we want someone 6' 8-9 for the front court. And of we do bring in another guard lets get one over 6'5 with long arms and good d skills.
