    I think we’re looking at this all wrong. We know we don’t have the resources to bring enough quality players here to win a title, but our current roster absolutely can win…if we take out some players on other teams. This is not new in Oregon where our own little golden girl, Tonya Harding, had a crew try to take out the competition. What’s Jeff Gilhooly, er, Stone or whatever, up to today?

    I used to dance with Tonya at the old Copper Penny many years ago. We hung out quite a bit actually. She was a blast back then.

    I highly doubt that trade will materialize as be part of Blazers luck. For years, we have heard Portland is not a free agent destination or trade market choice and your scenario is not a high percentage but the fantasy is cool .

    Realistically, with the assets we have, we have to hope for Chauncey to pull some magic to put us in a position to win a championship, regardless of the moves we make.

    Nurk is the weak link in your proposed “Title team.”

    trade Nurk + CJ

    and damn…we should have picked up Drummond as our back-up center!

    Not a Nurk fan? Ok. But a Drummond fan means you are out of touch with the NBA the last year and a half. He is garbage now.

    Super plodding now. Looks like he plays in slow motion. His career has spiraled downward.
