The OFFICIAL You be the GM thread

[The Dude]

Next up is Meyers Leonard.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/trail-blazers-meyers-leonard-you-be-the-gm.html

Should we bring back the young big guy? Would you rather trade him instead of the 10th pick in this years draft?

It's a different question today.....

Is Meyers Leonard the Blazers' center of the future? Not should he stay or go. That makes The Dude think a little bit more about the answer.

OLive can term it however they want but there is always the possibility of a trade. That would be the "go" portion.

Is Meyers Leonard the Blazers' center of the future?

What a depressing thought.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Next up is Will Barton.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/you_be_the_gm_will_barton.html

Is he trade fodder this off-season? Could he be the backup SG next year?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Next up is Damian Lillard.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/you_be_the_gm_damian_lillard.html

Is there any realistic trade this summer that you could see him moved in?

Is there any realistic trade this summer that you could see him moved in?

No. That said, the "most" realistic I could come up with in the matter of a few seconds would be Lillard for Lin/Asik/draft picks.

I not saying there is a deal there but if there was then I think you would see LMA moved in that deal (they would have to add Terrance Jones and maybe something else too) instead of Lillard.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Next up is Wesley Matthews. Last year it was 88% Stay.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/i...azers-wesley-matthews-you-be-the-gm-2013.html

Is Wesley the perfect player for our team and should stay? Would you trade him in a package-deal this summer to get a legit Center?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Next up is Nicolas Batum. Last year it was 91% Stay.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/i...blazers-nicolas-batum-you-be-the-gm-2013.html

Is Batum going to live up to his contract? Should we deal him?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Next up is LaMarcus Aldridge. Last year it was 91% Stay.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/you_be_the_gm_lamarcus_aldridge.html

Do you see any realistic trades this summer where we should part with LMA?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

This one might generate some interest.

Next up is Terry Stotts.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/you_be_the_gm_terry_stotts.html#incart_river

Should the current coach stay or go?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Next up is Neil Olshey.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/i...d_you_grade_trail_blazers_gm_neil_olshey.html

Do you think Neil has the vision to improve POR substantially in the next few years?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Finally up is Paul Allen. Last year it was 61% Stay.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/you_be_the_gm_paul_allen_1.html

Is Paul Allen the right owner to get us back to a championship contender?

 

[jlprk]

Are you affiliated with the Oregonian?

 

[KeepOnRollin]

Are you affiliated with the Oregonian?

Nope. Other then some of us came from that forum over there. They have done this for 11 years and in the past it has generated quite a bit of discussion.

Here is the You be the GM: wrap-up

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/trail-blazers-you-be-the-gm-2013-rewind.html

Anything jump out at you? Looks like fans want Hickson back (slightly) but of course they don't have to sign the checks.

Aldridge at 83 is low. What's Barton doing at 90?

 

[jlprk]

When I start pushing, everyone's against me for a year, then I get half on my side. Pritchard, McMillan...last year I was telling you that Babbitt can't shoot while you all kept praising his shooting...I hated Bayless for his first Summer camp, which you all loved...

A year from now, Aldridge will be lower than 83%. Just watch. And Leonard really, really sucks at defense. It will take him years, not just 1 year. And Batum's not improving. Claver will be just as good in a year.

 

[KeepOnRollin]

What's Barton doing at 90?

Prisoners of the moment.

 

[Wizard Mentor]

When's the O going to have a You-Be-The-Editor-In-Chief, so I can vote some of their sportswriters off the Island?

 

[dviss1]

Aldridge at 83 is low. What's Barton doing at 90?

I don't think 83 is low at all. I also don't think Barton at 90 is too much of a stretch.

The skinny is:

We can get something for LA (Barton will net you a 2nd rounder at best).

Barton showed a bit of potential toward the end of last season and we have lacked at SG since Roy broke down.
