    Well, do you really think both Crabbe and McCollum will remain on the Blazers throughout there career?

    I think if this were the case, He would get Vonlehs spot. Its clear that Stotts thinks Vonleh is the better potential project or thier roles would be reverse.

    Exactly.

    Vonleh showed big signs in summer league and continues to give glimpses that he might be able to develop a quite sound and versatile offensive game. I'm not seeing limits yet.
    Alexander's only inside presence is crashing the boards. Think more like Davis. Alexander doesn't have an offensive game.

    Vonleh is an inch shorter than, and 5 lbs lighter than Plums. I'd consider playing him at C next to Love.

    Love has played C some.

    I think a deal for Love would include CJ, at least. The Cavs would be nuts to accept less, or even CJ straight up.

    Good. Because CJ is more valuable. I would take Love, but not for cJ. In today's NBA players who can shoot from anywhere on the floor are the most valuable. And to do so you have to be able to create your own shot. Stretch 4's cannot create their own shot.

    For their career, maybe not. For at least the next 3 seasons, yes.

    In other words, they will be untouchable for the next 3 seasons.

    Yeah, but I'd say CJ is probably going to get signed to a 4 year max, which means in 5 years him and Dame will both be Free Agents again. I don't think they are going to break up the Dame, CJ back court in 5 years unless there are serious problems. But CJ showed he can take apart the best defenses in the league last year vs Memphis.

    hehe, this discussion is still going on?
    We all know that Love doesn't want to be in Portland and even if he did he would take us nowhere fast, so why waste time on it?

    We can still get Markieff Morris for FREE.

    And that's still too high a price to pay.

    and interesting that they both have a standing reach a 9.0 ft and Plums has a 6'11" wingspan and Vonleh 7'4", at the combine Vonleh actually exceeded Plums "vertical" stats by one inch on each jump.

    Never acquire a player who looks like he should be in a pairs figure skating event with Chazz Michael Michaels.

    I might have to challenge that if Gordon Hayward was available! Also....interesting that you're probably the only one here that knows who Chazz Michael Michaels is...I had to google his name myself
