    I would trade Damian, for Steph Curry, but that's about it. The list of players I would trade CJ for is considerably longer.

    Would you trade CJ for Nerlens Noel if you knew you could sign Derozan this summer?

    I'd rather have CJ than Derozen. Derozen really turned me off of him lately.

    And may I remind you, I was very pro- trade CJ. Sorry BGD, can't say I'm falling in love with players.

    That's a hard NO. Or should that be an easy NO?

    NO! Quit asking! We have the second back court in the league right now and they have not hit their ceiling yet. Adding one more piece via free agency will create matchup nightmares for every team for years to come. Stop the debate. This backcourt is Neil's baby and he is not breaking it up.

    Go look at DeRozan's playoff stats (especially the shooting percentages) and come back and answer your own question.

    Can y'all imagine if we actually traded CJ for a pick? Then that pick busts while CJ becomes an allstar as a 25/5/5 guy?

    "They passed on Jordan and Durant, and they also traded McCollum for a scrub"

    Looks a smidge better overall than CJ's playoff stats.

    DeRozan:
    19.9 ppg, .365 FG%, .174 3FG%, .430 TS%, PER = 11.9, -.2WS

    is better than:

    C.J.:
    20.5 ppg, .426 FG%, .345 3FG%, .513 TS%, PER = 14.1, +0.6 WS

    Really?

    And I really hope he does not read this. He does not deserve the criticism after what he has given this team, and four to five threads debating his departure from the team is insulting.

    Well, if he does read it, I hope he sees the majority of us repeatedly shooting down these ridiculous trade proposals.

    I get that it's officially the off season and there isn't much else to talk about, but there is a definite grass is always greener mentality here. The guy just won the MIP for god's sake and was THE biggest reason this team greatly exceeded expectations this year. Trading him for an older player, that doesn't fit our system that is SUCKING big time in the playoffs isn't just insulting, it's stupid.

    The guy is amazing. His ability to create his own shot and break down defenses is irreplaceable. He's only going to get better from 3 and the stress he and dame put on opposing defenses is paramount to out succesS. They have to pick their poison and good luck with that. Having harkless and chief can help shore up their defense efficiencies. If traded he would haunt us for years to come.
