They got a mod over there named "brian" who is a proud husband and father, and has a very patriotic avatar. Hmmm.....
Do you really think our Brian would write this? We send out Meyers Leonard and Victor Claver and get back Paul George? Sign me up!
What's sad is that Pops would probably turn Meyers into an all star after a couple of seasons on the Spurs.
I do. He's been completely unreasonable before regarding trading LMA, and refused to budge from his opinion that LMA wanted out for sure.
So you think that one of the most analytic people from our forum would write a post about trading Claver and MyLe for Paul George?
I'm genuinely curious as to how BrianfromWA got under people's skin. I didn't think his arguments were too bad, or that he was too abrasive. But BF went off the handles with him, and you seem to loathe him. I'm just wondering, what did he say or do?
He was adamant that LMA was demanding a trade. He refused to consider that the reports of a trade demand were a media creation, and he spent the entire summer overreacting to it. This entire board was about trading LMA, thanks to NB3 and BrianfromWA, for well over a month. It was silly and tiresome, which is why you've seen more realistic posts this summer when some of the same people started in yet again with their Trade LMA!!! stuff. If improving the roster via a draft pick is the idea, Lillard is by far the more attractive player for a team in rebuild mode.
Apparently not, since you two were assuming that it was 100% that he wanted out. I've tried to save you from yourself this summer...
Maybe it was a 100% until they told him he would be playing for the Cavs or some other place far worse than Portland. Then he shut his mouth and things worked out.
