    Hes going to. Hes going to trade the exception straight up for Gordon. Then help facilitate a Melo to Houston deal sending out Hark, Meyers, and Pat( We moved Pats guarantee date to Aug 31st so we could trade him) for Anderson. Like it or not.

    So just a thought, but extending Pats deadline enabled Neil to make this deal and have time to complete the follow up deal. If follow up deal doesn't happen then the Blazers still have a bbackup SG yeah I know Pat is awful in SL but he looks competent in regular season systematic play.

    Because you opened this new thread instead of just posting in the existing thread about the trade rumor, N.O. saw it and decided to change his plans. You have single handedly saved the franchise. Good Job

    We will have Anderson, Biggie and Noah at the 4 Aminu will be back at the 3, but I think we may start Turner over him.

    I've been saying for months that Pat could grow into a much cheaper Crabbe replacement. He's basically on the same career arc. Crabbe saw a big increase in his role in his third season. This will be Pat's third season.

    I'm not concerned with his summer league performance. He was forced to play out of position at PG in an unstructured environment. Pat is more of a system player. He does better in a structured setting surrounded by good players. He knows his role in that system and won't try to force things.

    Worst case, he's a tradeable piece with a non-guaranteed contract.

    We'd be so far over the cap it wouldnt be funny. Plus we wont get Anderson and Gordon without Melo going to Houston. And as much as I would rather have Melo. Neil gave it the old college try. He rolled the dice and Melo doesn't want to come here. He can't be convinced. So, do the next best thing send him to Houston and make sure outside of their big three they dont have shit, but a bunch of cheapo contracts who will do little to help Houston contend for anything.

    Fine.....

    Dame/Turner/Napier
    CJ/Gordon/{PattyC
    Anderson/Aminu/Layman

    Ummm... okay,... not really liking this lineup. but if it allows us to sign Nurk and keep moving pieces around then so be it.
