    Portland and Cleveland are in talks to send Varejao to Portland

    This would've been a great move TEN years ago.

    Because we would be paid a 1st-round pick to take his contract. Then Cleveland can afford a trade for Channing Frye...who loves Portland but couldn't get any minutes because Aldridge was here. Is history just a grand circle?

    Is this coming from the sources that flip flop every minute on Twitter? Only way I see this happening is with #1s from Boston and Love going to the Celtics.

    Didn't we get Sasha Pavlovic from Boston years ago and the deal include them paying his salary?

    Damn Sasha had the slowest release of any shooter I've ever seen.

    Old news? This was floated by someone assuming we would be involved since we have so much space available.

    Is there anything new to report? If so put the tweet here

    For a 1st round draft pick and not giving up anyone?

    Sure, why the hell not.

    It would have to be a great pick ...Andy V is owed 19 mil over a couple years I think. That's a price to pay for a pick.

    Well, I guess we should get him quickly for a 1st to trade him again at the deadline.

    If it's the Cavs pick no thanks. High second rounders seem to have more value than picks 25-30.

    And Andy would cut into cap space next year

    There is a massive thread where this very thing is being discussed. Nothing new here. Can you guys start merging threads? The repetitive threads are getting annoying

    I'm just waiting for actual news, none of the "Talks with". Basically just waiting for Woj tweets saying that there's a trade.
