Those rumors about aldridge being extremely jealous and feeling underappreciated don't seem so insane anymore.

Those rumors about aldridge being extremely jealous and feeling underappreciated don't seem so insane anymore.

I wonder who he'll give the rose to. Because he's acting like the fucking Bachelorette.

 

[BrianFromWA]

I don't want to lose LA, but I could get on board if somehow we gained Whiteside and Winslow.

To make the money work for MIA, pretty sure they have to send Deng back in any trade (unless Wade is coming) and combine him with at least McBob, Chalmers or Birdman. Winslow would be nice as well.

 

[Scalma]

I mean what a fucktard. He wants to win but he doesn't want to share the spotlight. No wonder he loves robin lopez so much. Lopez does all the dirty work and let's aldridge take the credit.

I'll take Wade; he fills a need for our team.

Deng and Chalmers would fill out our present roster quite nicely, actually.

Getting McBob back would be fun too. Dunno about Birdman; we have an active child exploitation underworld here and he might get distracted.

Those are the players we agree to accept to clear room on the condition they also give us Winslow and Whiteside.

either one will do. but both will be better.

 

[BonesJones]

Whiteside, Winslow, their 2020 first round draft pick.

that wouldn't create enough space for them to sign him

 

[magnifier661]

If Aldridge goes to Miami, they would surely just give us an even swap for Bosh. The other players won't be included. We would do it too

Bosh probably couldn't pass the physical..Whiteside and Deng would be an option though

Bosh is plug-and-play with LMA... the playbook wouldn't change.

 

[BrianFromWA]

um, what?

I think they'd love to run a Dragic/Wade/??/LMA/Bosh lineup. If that means we get Deng, McBob and Winslow, I'm ok with that

 

[Boise Blazer]

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Bosh doesn't mind playing Center unlike LMA.

 

[riverman]

Riley always tries to get players to take a discount ..Lamarcus ain't taking a discount

 

[BrianFromWA]

he doesn't need LMA to. And Bosh didn't.

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Detroit signed Aron Baynes from San Antonio. Add him to the list of relocated players.

 

[oldmangrouch]

If Ole' could get Winslow as part of a package for LMA, I would take back all the nasty comments.

Never gonna happen - but it would be brilliant on his part. Winslow is the Paul Pierce of the 2015 draft.

 

[HomerLovesKoolAid]

LMA mindfucking the whole league, then back to business in Tualatin.

 

[RR7]

I'd do Deng and Chalmers if we got Winslow out of the deal, assuming he's leaving us anyways. I wouldn't do it for those 2 and some far off likely never received draft pick, though.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

I don't think they'd give up Whiteside, and they've already jettisoned an insane number of future 1sts, so I say Deng and Winslow. Let them find an SF somewhere else.

 

[Sedatedfork]

Where is Rebecca Haarlow these days? Maybe that will be a factor.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

Riley always tries to get players to take a discount ..Lamarcus ain't taking a discount

He's taking a 30mil discount if he leaves at all.

 

[BlazerCaravan]

She's with Memphis, yeah? I seem to remember she showed up in the playoffs interviewing LA.

Is he in the Federal Witness Relocation Program? He should have opted for prison.

 

[magnifier661]

Not possible. Aldridge will not play center. He will only go there if they have Whitside

 

[Rastapopoulos]

Agreed about Whiteside. But if they offer Winslow, then I really think we should do it. There's a big gaping hole in our roster for an all-round SF like Winslow.

Downside: THREE Dukies?

Rather have Chalmers than McBob; we need a backup PG. Deng/Winslow/Chalmers would be an insanely good return for LA. Which means there's absolutely 0% chance of it happening.
