I say we wait and see if we are involved what we actually get before we decide to have an opinion about the trade.

And could we please get a mod to delete the previous 4500+ posts in this thread and lock the topic until a trade actually happens?

If I did that, Denny would turn in to Gustavo Fring. I'm in the back of the car with a hood over my head, and I have Ermhantraut making a dry joke whilst pointing a gun at me.

I am not about that life, sir.
 
Another pie in the sky trade:

POR in: Love, Ariza
POR out: Harkless, Davis, Leonard, 1st round pick

CLE in: Melo, CP, 1st round pick from HOU
CLE out: Kyrie, Love

HOU in: Kyrie
HOU out: CP, Ariza, 1st round pick

NYK in: Harkless, Davis, 1st round pick from POR
NYK out: Melo

I like this deal really interesting thought experiment I think it's all pretty even that being said, every time I think about Ariza in a Blazer uniform I think back to what he did to Rudy and I cant help myself here but FUCK TREVOR ARIZA. I dont want him to EVER be a Blazer Eric Gordon or try and find another team that will facilitate this deal. FUCK TREVOR ARIZA.

Would/can HOU trade Chris Paul so soon after acquiring him? It makes HOU better long term, but they still don't have their Big 3 to compete with GSW's Big 4. It makes them worse this season (CP3 is a MUCH better defender and passer than Kyrie). Kind if depends on the priorities of any potential new owner.

OTOH, it unites LeBron, CP3 and Melo in CLE for one more crack at the Warriors. That team, is old as fuck and all 3 opt out after this season. If Dan Gilbert thinks LeBron is leaving next summer anyway, he might just mortgage their entire future for a shot at one more ring.

I also want New York to be sort of decent as I am going to NYC in January and want to go to a game, preferably I don't want them to be absolutely shit.
If you want to see a decent game, you may be better off seeing the Rangers or Islanders.... Lol
 
Ryan Anderson may not be ideal piece for Blazers to trade for, but it's better than not making any moves... Dame is 27 and the window is now... Ryno at the very least will open the paint for Nurkic, Dame, and CJ

Yeah... No....

Rudy was never the same after that. Hated Ariza for years.

Deal would be possible with CP 2 months after the LAC--> HOU deal was official, so AUG 27. He can be traded alone now I believe.
