    Trent/OG for Jrue works. Don’t want Trent but…

    just a hunch, but i feel like we never were interested in OG given his FA status.

    Do any of these teams mentioned for Jrue have any good young prospects? No, Jovic and Jaquez are not it. I'm talking about prospects that COULD be starters ala Mark Williams in Charlotte or another former lotto pick.

    Totally agree, I think we can get a decent return, and it definitely feels more exciting than trading Lillard, because that just had the depressing feeling of the end of an era.

    The market for Jrue appears massive. There's very obvious momentum given the competition. I don't think we should wait.

    Windhorst also threw out GS as interested in Holiday. It would be hilarious if we get some of their youngins+ CP, and keep Paul as a Scoot mentor.

    CP loves Scoot and they have some relationship already. But the problem with CP is his expectation for minutes and every team he's on wins more than it should in the regular season.

    Plus I'm not sure reuniting Ayton and CP3 would be a good idea.

    We only need one. It's going to be hard to develop everyone at some point. Get one and a 1st or two.

    I've never seen anybody call Chris Paul CP....it's taking me a sec to realize who he's talking about.

    Why do you think I haven't seen anybody call him CP? Think about it angry guy.
    No different than the people that type "LBJ" for LeBron.....because nobody calls him that. No rocks here.
    Example.....can't believe we traded DL today. See it just doesn't work.

    Another example, say in the Around the NBA thread you randomly typed.....CP looked great tonight. Or if you typed CP3 looked great tonight......guess which one works? I'll give you a sec......still pissed at me?
