Boston contacted NY about their cap and M. Smart....

THAT'S the angle I'd work.

 

[HailBlazers]

Will someone tag me when something actually happens???

@Orion Bailey 18 pages of conjecture just happened. Tis the season.

 

[julius]

Your guy?

Not to be confused with your guy who said Damian drank like a fish.

 

[Strenuus]

Your guy?

TBPup has like 4-5 guys and hes been right about most everything hes talked about.

You have literally been right about nothing.

 

[Minstrel]

I don't see this going well for Portland. Let New York and Houston figure it out themselves.

I mean, sure, those two trades proposed where we get the only two valuable players and dump the bad contracts on New York were great (and hilarious realistic for New York) but I'm pretty sure Houston wants to add Melo to Ariza and Gordon, not give up even more depth to have 5 good players and 10 street free agent caliber players.

 

[Dougnsalem]

Right after BE's "piece"

Lol. Clutchfans were quoting BE earlier....

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

If we can come out of this offseason with: Collins/Swanigan/Smart I'd be happy.

How happy?

 

[TBpup]

Nets? Where'd they come into the pic?

They didn't. Was referring to an earlier post with a contact I have that is tight with the Nets and what he had hear about NY/POR.

Not to be confused with your guy who said Damian drank like a fish.

Not me. Different poster.

 

[julius]

Not me. Different poster.

Which is probably why I wasn't quoting you.

Not me. Different poster.

He was talking about BGD, not you. lol.

 

[BonesJones]

I bet Olshey is angling for lightly protected 2020 HOU Pick and 2020 NYK pick.

That's the summer we'll have a lot of capspace, and could use 3 firsts and the cap space the trade for a star. We could be players in 2019 free agency because ET AC, and Anderson would be tradable and the extra picks would help facilitate their cap clearing in case they do land someone.

What do you think of that as a long term plan @TBpup and others?

 

[TBpup]

He was talking about BGD, not you. lol.

Yep....I missed that and the gotcha police jumped my error right away.

A trade where neither team wins. These are hard to find.

 

[tester551]

The more I've thought about this, the more I don't like the idea.

Anderson for Turner, Meyers, & Noah would work for me though.

I'm sorry, but even sulky, butthurt and aging Aldridge is a vast improvement over Patty, Butters, and Davis. Huge win for us, and SA gets rid of a problem child.

Dafuq?

San Antonio clearly is getting the better player in Butters...

 

[Reep]

He's a role player, just like our guys. The Nets are desperate to acquire any young talent.

13 points and 6+ rebounds shooting 43% from 3 on 4+ attempts and 51% on 2s, while playing solid defense is much more than a role player to me. His offensive rating was 129 last year. My only complaint would be that he needs to shoot more.

While i dont disagree, the blazer FO would be totally against it

 

[Boob-No-More]

So let them acquire Crabbe.

We had our chance...

Am I completely batshit for thinking this could happen? And feel free to add in draft picks and/or money as necessary.

The thought of our starting 5 being Dame, Nurk, CJ, Hassan, and Harkless makes my nipples tingle.

Why do people keep trying to put Nurk next to other centers? That experiment failed horribly in Denver. That's WHY we have him.

Pull the tassels off. That should help.

.........you make a good point. I just thought he could play PF. But yeah.....you make a very good point.

Hmmm.....

Bro what???

In what bizarro world do you think that trade could actually happen?

 

[stampedehero]

I'm liking Ariza and Anderson in Blazer unis if we could ship out Turner and Meyers.

LOL, it's 10:30 at night, and I'm tired.

And now you see why I'm not a GM. Let us pray I never become one.

Oh I like that indeed. And Hark The Herald Angels Sing can stay here where he belongs.
