    Not at all. We just have to realize that these smaller non impactful trades need a shot to confirm one way or another.

    It's ok for me to say it b/c it's not like I'm going to jinx it...and since Magic's running the L*kers it'll never happen.but...

    I've already expressed my feelings about LeBron and especially "Old LeBron". My trade deadline would be complete if Magic was like "this dude wants me to trade everything I've built up for years, including a promising head coach, so he can hook his buddy up and show that his agent has all the power in today's NBA. Eff him...'Hey Boston? Tatum and some 1sts gets you LBJ'."

    Personally I just wanna see the lakers chemistry fall apart. Losing streak. They turn into a trash team. Lebron hates it. The young guys hate it. No playoffs. Burn it down. As a blazer fan that’s the hate I have for the lakers and their fan base. I will enjoy watching it too.

    Neil is trying to make another trade. I'll be more interested in evaluating the Hood trade after the next one... assuming it actually happens.

    Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if we ended up with Marc Gasol.

    Toronto made that move because they saw themselves as one big move from the finals and had a chance to swap a good player for a better player. That is NOT where the Blazers are at. The Blazers are at least 2 steps behind that. Furthermore, it is highly debatable if AD is an upgrade over Dame and Leonard (IMHO) is a selfish dick and not a leader.

    Lebron is the worst. It’s amazing how beta he is and his influence has shaped the climate of today’s NBA, where taking shortcuts is encouraged, and disguised under “doing what’s best for me.”

    I talk a bunch of shit about him but I also have respect for someone like Russell Westbrook, who didn’t run the first chance he got. Lillard is in the same boat, but guys like that are becoming the exception and Lebron is the main reason why. Fuck him. Can’t wait until he’s gone.

    I would have been open to Evan if not for the Hood deal but now that would be a redundant trade since they are very much alike. The idea of getting J. Green from Memphis intrigues me he can bang a little and would finally replace the hole left by Davis to a degree.
