    I envisage us treating him like OKC treated Al Horford.

    Maybe throw Little in the mix to Cleveland & bring back Boucher to Portland. Balances payrolls a bit better that way.

    Risk vs Reward.

    The risk of Dame getting seriously hurt isn't that high. Worst case, he stays on the team until next summer.... so what?

    Lets all remember, if Cronin works a deal with Miami, and they are sending Herro to a third team for a first, Cronin will evaluate which player(s) from said third team might be diverted to Portland. Maybe Cleveland would be interested in Herro for Allen. Just spit balling.

    Agree and I bet it will be both. However if for some reason we can only take one, I would slightly lean towards Jaquez. Jovic has loads of potential on offense, but Jaquez seems like he could be a good 2-way player.......assuming he improves his 3 pt shooting and I see no reason why he can't (he shot it well 2 years ago)

    Where were all the teams lining up for Durant before he was traded?

    Exactly. Why are so many people in such a rush to trade Dame? I don't understand that.

    That sounds great too. Would clear the forward decks for Murray and Walker to both get minutes.

    Portland could have gone full 2nd apron and jumped into the KD mix, but nooooo... Jody Allen wants budget baby Blazers, and we get to watch an exciting NBA training circuit with a Coach that can't draw up inbounds plays.

    I've seen no evidence that paying good players is a problem for this team.

    We typically have overpaid players...

    KD was as committed to going to the Suns as Dame is to going to the Heat. Even if the Blazers had had the assets needed to make a legitimate offer for KD, which they didn’t, there’s no way that acquiring him was an option. Blaming Jodie makes no sense.

    I'm not blaming Jody, or the decision to rebuild a struggling Blazers team. All the horsecrap the front office told Blazer fans during this teardown has been exposed, accepted, and is disappearing behind us.

    I just wanted to sneak in jab that Billups can't coach too good. Check out the inbounds play @2:35 of this video. Coach Billups forgot which basket he was defending.

    This is classic bs. Miami STILL wants to lower the offer. With this tweet, they want us to discuss if Jovic is better than Jaques and forget about Caleb Martin and Orlando Robinson.
    None of those 4 players is proven to be a prospect. They all can be busts.
    Miami "offer" is still really, really shitty.

    Sounds like Detroit is interested in Herro. Wouldn't mind taking a shot on Wiseman with a 1st round pick.
