    Nic is a career 6.9 scorer and a career PER of 14.6 in 101 starts in 116 games. He missed 45 games last season. Deng is a career 15.8 scorer with a 16.4 PER.

    And the contracts have to match. You haven't shown how Portland makes the deal and saves NOH over $52M (actually it's like $67M) over the next 5 seasons.

    Players traded in their primes:

    Charles Barkley

    Tracy McGrady

    Chris Webber

    Jason Kidd

    That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

    I really don't see Deng as attractive to NOH. Why would they want a David West clone with a big contract and a history of injuries?

    West is a PF. Deng played 38 MPG and 70 games last season, 17.6/7.3. He's back.

    Collision would have two pretty good forwards to feed.

    I laugh at the thought that Deng has any kind of trade value with his injury history and contract.

    Supposedly, Paxson refused to pull the trigger on a Deng for Gasol deal back when. And these days, the rumor is the Cavs would do an S&T of LeBron for Deng.

    Comparing career PER with Nic is pointless. He is 21, and just broke out last year when he had a PER of 17.3. Deng had a PER of 16.1 last year. And pointing out Nic's one injury as a potential deterrent for him is silly when you look at Deng's repeated bouts with various injuries.

    And and Oden/Joel/Nic/Dre for Paul/Okafor saves them 64+ million over the next four years. The Blazers package is a helluva lot more enticing than the silly one you proposed.

    They're both 6'9 forwards who love to shoot midrange jumpers and average under eight rebounds per game. Not exactly ideal.

    Didn't you want to trade Deng for an expring contract back in February at the trade deadline?

    Now he could be the centerpience of a package for Chris Paul?

    Deng is most commonly referred to as 'Dung' in the greater Chicago area.

    Quit churching up his value :lol:

    I could see a Deng for Gasol trade being possible, Deng had much more value back then.

    But Deng for LeBron is funny.

    Deng at age 21: 82 games, 18.8 PPG, 7.1 RPG, 18.7 PER
    Batum at age 21: 37 games, 10.1 PPG, 3.8 RPG, 17.3 PER

    So the injury bug has hit Batum earlier.

    http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/post/_/id/15881/lebron-to-the-bulls-3-gms-think-so

    One GM went a bit further in a phone call a few minutes later. "I think the Bulls are really going to go for it. Look for them to offer the Cavs Luol Deng in a sign-and-trade for LeBron. That will allow them to retain most of their cap space. Then they'll go after Dwyane Wade or Chris Bosh as well."

    Of course the Bulls would love to get a Lebron sign and trade which also allows them to get Chris Bosh.

    That has nothing to do with your statement that "Cavs would do an S&T of LeBron for Deng"

    And in the three years following, Deng has had PERs of 17, 14.7, and 16, while missing a total of 64 games.

    LOL @ the thought of him being traded for Lebron. Why the fuck would CLE accept Deng's huge ass contract, only to trade the best player in the league to a division rival?

    dont get me wrong. I really would like to see paul here, but for the life of me I cannot figure out how we could get this done. I would like someone to propose a trade for paul that works under the current guidelines......
