Wilson Chandler to POR?

[Sinobas]

Every salary cap site I looked at has next year as his last year with a team option. But he was also reported to have signed a 5 year extension, and next year will be year #4. Just wondering why the Nuggests would want to trade him since he's basically an expiring contract. It seems that the 1st round draft pick would be their only incentive rather than a "throw in"

T Rob, Wright or cleaver and a pick for Chandler Then we sign Jermaine.

This is what I've wanted to happen. We get those two and were set to go deep

 

[Scalma]

The sooner we can get chandler the better. Give him as much time as possible to gel with the team.

I think Crabbe, T. Rob and the draft pick is what Denver wants. I don't think that's what Olshey wants though.

It's not what I want either; Crabbe's a keeper IMHO.

 

[Scalma]

Hopefully they like CJ too. I'd do cj, trob and a pick

CJ + TRob is like 6 million bucks... Wilson Chandler is 6.7 mil... hmmmm

How is Jeff Green gonna cost a 1st round pick and an expiring but Wilson Chandler is going to cost a 1st round pick plus a prospect or two? I think Green is the better player. So much talk about Wilson but Arron Afflalo is the guy I'd want from Denver.

And who knows. Maybe that is who Olshey is after. Woj is still butt hurt that Portland won't give him shot to work with.

Btw. T rob would be an expiring

What?

 

[magnifier661]

What?

Woj has had it out for Portland because we don't give him inside information.

 

[Blazersfan161]

We need bench depth and this helps. Anymore news on it?

Talk about nuggets firesale

There was no mention of any individual player involved from Portland's end. And Green/Wilson are very similar in terms of level of talent.

Portland can't absorb almost 7 million dollars without giving up something, so a player would HAVE to be included.

 

[Scalma]

Chandler is cheaper than Green, so you would think he would fetch a little more in a trade

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Remember she we could have dealt Rudy Fernandez for Wilson Chandler, but held out for more and then later just dumped Rudy?

 

[Scalma]

Has olshey made any trades or moves mid season since he's been GM of Portland? He better not sit still again. I don't care what our record is, bench needs help

 

[Blazersfan161]

So no new news on this

 

[BlazerDuckSeahawkFan94]

The first round pick is hard to swallow but his contract is team friendly at least and we wouldn't have to trade any major parts.

T-Rob+Claver+1st rounder for Chandler is doable. Might have to get a third team involved though because Denver has more power forwards than they can deal with.

We could then go try to sign O'Neal or whomever we like in the current free agent pool.

 

[MickZagger]

Its Paul Allen, he can always open the checkbook if there's someone we want to grab in the late 1st.

I would rather give them CJ but we have to remember that we are a win now team, not a rebuilding team.

 

[Scalma]

Cj WAS a lottery pick, maybe Denver values him more than Crabbe.

CJ would be giving them more. We would be losing more trading CJ away

They would rather have CJ than Crabbe. I don't like giving them CJ actually

 

[KeepOnRollin]

People wanted to strait cut Crabbe last year (look how that would have turned out) and now people want to trade CJ. Patience pays off with our young guys.

Only players I am giving them if I am Olshey is Claver and TRob. Take it or leave it. I am fine if you leave it.

 

[Scalma]

If were giving up a 1st, I'm pretty sure we wouldn't have to give up crabbe or cj as well. Dorell or Trob

This, with the exception of giving them our first rounder.

That's how I see it. I don't like CJ at all, and would LOVE to see us trade him. But even with my low opinion of him I think we can do better than Chandler - especially if we're include a draft pick of any sort.
Robinson, Wright, Barton, and Claver are all very easy to part with though.

Other than John Schuman, where is this rumor being reported?
