    If you think this:

    Dame
    CJ
    Moe
    Aminu
    Plumlee

    Is better than this:

    Dame
    Crabbe
    Moe
    Aminu
    Cousins

    You might be retarded.

    But hey, I'm just the retard that wanted us to get Whiteside, over a year ago.

    "He's a headcase"

    Nope. That's a win/lose, because adding Cousins would be a net negative for Portland.

    Blazers traded Jermaine O'Neal for all-star Dale Davis.

    Please stop calling people retarded. It's not nice.

    It's possible to disagree with someone without calling them names.

    Why do you assume Cousins is the ONLY trade option? What if we could get Whiteside without giving up C.J., or what if we swap Crabbe for Noel. A big 3 of Dame C.J. and Whiteside would be awesome, and unlike Cousins, all three are locked up long term. Even if we just got Noel withoout giving u C.J. or Harkless, we'd still have our our 25+ ppg leader, our 20+ ppg No. 2, a 23-year old 15+ ppg No. 3 and and an elite 22-year old defender.

    Your question (and insult) assumes our only options are standing pat or trading C.J. for Cousins. I hope Neil is a little more creative than that. There are a lot of other possibilities to improve this team that don't involve trading away our second best player.

    Love your posts, but you seem to be taking Nate too seriously, lately.

    I would love Whiteside, or Cousins, or even Noel.

    I don't see Miami trading Whiteside without giving up CJ. If I'm Miami, I'm trading Dragic, not Whiteside.
    If I'm Excremento, I'm worried. If they get nothing for Cousins and he leaves, they become Philly's whipping boy, and without the draft picks Philly has.

    No no captian hindsight please tell us more about how we didnt try to sign him and he went back to miami! Your brilliance is actually unmatched elsewhere and the blazers NEED YOUR HELP. I suggest you call up Mr. Allen tell him all of your great insights into how and which free agents to target (since Neil and company OBV isnt working out). Collective bargaining rules and luxury tax be damned only YOU can make this work!

    I don't have a problem with any of those scenarios.

    And it was directed towards cheeseburger. Because apparently, trading a "budding allstar" for a current allstar, in his prime, would somehow make us worse.

    It wasnt about that, being the only option.

    I'm talking about the response I got from posters on here, to my idea about getting Whiteside, about a year ago.

    Those responses about Whitesie, were very similar to the responses about Cousins.

    And look how Whiteside, turned out.

    Someone said that getting Whiteside in the offseason, would be the "Biggest mistake in Trailblazers history" or something to that affect.

    Multiple people said he sucked at defense, and was a loose cannon that couldnt be controlled on any team, and was a locker room cancer....

    I'm pretty sure all the people that said those things, had never even watched him play a game.

    I'm beginning to think the same thing about the Cousins, haters.

    If you consider that his prime, sure. 31 years old?

    Try again.

    You said he might be retarded. That's both an insult and a slur all wrapped in one. Compelely unecessary and did nothing to help strengthen your argument.

    Why is anyone who disagrees with your opinions labeled a hater?

    I've been labeled a Crabbe hater because I think he's grotesquely overpaid based on his level of production, but I've never once expressed any kind of hatred or dislike for Allen Crabbe personally. I can hate the contract without hating the man. He actually seems like a pretty good guy.

    You seem to have some need to label people who disagree with you. They are either retarded, haters, or both.

    I cant help you if you think the Harden trade of all things was smart. They never made it back to the finals after that year. We must live in opposite worlds cause that trade was and still is widely seen as a blunder.
