    This trade will open things up so Meyers can play a little point guard.

    Wes and Afflalo can start making crushing smaller guards on the block a POR staple.

    Anayltics are such a big part of the game and Portland uses them a lot.

    Reminiscent of Smitty and Bonzi.

    Man, my biggest fear is chemistry. If they're both satisfied with their respective roles, we'll be golden

    Reminds me of back when JR Rider posted up guards like suckas in 1998-99.

    I'm not even arguing against Afflalo, just Gee and his crappy shooting. If you're going to try to hold an argument you can't change the subject halfway through.

    Did this trade kill the S2 servers? I'm seeing database errors left and right

    what you have not acknowledged is Nic's horrible shooting all year and how teams are just laying off him and it's hurting our offense

    and if you think Gee's shooting is "crappy" what adjective would you use for Nic's 27% for 3 pt range and 37.5% overall? Craprtastic? Horrific? Fukkin awful? Downright shitty?

    I can't believe there are folks in the world who don't love Afflalo... how on earth could he be underrated?

    Shockingly, Afflalo has had a better Drtg than Wes every year. How reliable is this stat? Can someone explain it?

    Yeah I wouldn't blame him either. Who knows, maybe Olshey is just feeling out the options. I like that he's taking a "pro active" approach
