    Noah doesnt' make as much sense now that all of the good pfs are off the market anyway.

    Wrong thread ABM. That has been mentioned in a few of the GS threads and Mr. PG said he approved of it.

    I'm guessing we're talking about Chicago because it's one of the few threads the last two days that wasn't posted by some guy sporting a chub, and it pertains to basketball. Plus, Denny continues down the road of posting increasingly incoherent/irrational posts involving the Bulls.

    Yeah, I posted before that I wouldn't mind that deal. I think Barnes is a steal, and I was wrong about him during the draft. He'd be a solid bench player the next few years.

    the other thing is ... i would not accept Boozer in such a trade. he's overrated. Noah is good and a menace on the court, but he won't stay and i'm pretty sure he's as close to untouchable that the Bulls currently have on their roster.

    If Noah leaves Chicago, it will only be for LA, Miami, or NYC. He's as cosmopolitan a player as there is right now, considering his upbringing. I just can't imagine him enjoying Portland.

    Noah would be the only piece i would want included in such a deal. i don't think he'd be happy here (other than playing with Nico). i would nix such a deal if i were GM.

    Strawman.

    Just in case you don't get it:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Straw_man

    You to a "T"

    I suggested Deng, Boozer, and Taj. Maybe. You argue Boozer vs. LMA.

    You asked if Cleveland offered #1 and #19 for Boozer. Just wow. I have no idea where you get that sort of thing.

    However, the Cavs seemed to have been interested in the #1 for one of those other guys I suggested, Deng.

    http://nba.si.com/2013/06/24/nba-draft-trade-rumors-luol-deng-paul-pierce/

    The Cavs apparently have interest in Deng and he certainly would be a terrific role model and leader-by-example for a young squad; the Cavs also have a gaping hole at that position and if they have interest in vying for a playoff spot next season, a rookie out of this draft isn’t going to move them appreciably closer. That said, there is skepticism that the Cavs are actually serious about parting with the No. 1 pick because they keep asking for assets as if it were the first pick in next year’s draft.”

    I'm getting at that Noah would not need to stay in Portland, nor would he want to stay in Portland, after his most recent deal. The team won't be good enough to compete for a title. I wouldn't be surprised if he went back to Chicago somehow, and teamed with LMA that way after two years.

    It's Imaginary GM Land stuff, anyhow. I prefer it to reading some of you clown yourselves over a new poster, though. :cheers:

    I see what your up to Denny. Make a couple of very provocative comments, let the posters go off about how ridiculous said comments are, come back a few pages later say some other stuff and soon there are 80 comments in a thread that should have 12.

    Denny, you are a mad genius.
