I just dont get it? Our season cant get any worse? Why not take a chance on saving it? I mean i hope he reads this board so he realizes most Blazer fans think he's a pussy and over rated GM. Its always the same thing with him... "i like what we have." Well Kev... so does the rest of the NBA.... cause we suck. Anyway, did he have some tragic experience making a trade at some point? I mean its like hes scared to execute any kind of major move. Infact if you have ever seen the movie... THE WATERBOY.... KP reminds me of Coach Klein... remember how he was so scared of calling plays and he ran away anytime he had to draw one up? Thats how i picture KP when it comes to dealing with other teams? Anyone see KP? Wait he was just here a minute ago praising Cunningham. Now hes..... gone?
Why not like who we have? Maybe KP doesn't think the players are the problem? Maybe having 4 of your top 7 players injured is a factor? Maybe having a coach who is uber slow to adapt is a problem? Maybe having very young players who are still learning is a problem? Besides MIXUM in your infinite wisdom what kind of a trade could we make this year that would make sense and not hurt next year or the year after?
Give me three good trades that would work right now given injuries. I'm curious to see what you have in mind.
Why not just bump one of the 8 or 9 other threads that you posted in the past couple of weeks that say basically the same thing Mixum?
ive already said... get something for blake, outlaw, cunningham. it gets bayless in at backup pg...gets blake out. solves 2 problems in 1 move. everyone us happy except roy. its easy.... expiring contracts.... nba gm's like.... find a deal for a SF who can score its called being creative and selling to other gm's. its just too bad kp has no chance at doing either.
i just dont umderstand why hes so scared? gotta take gambles in this buisness. it doesnt count if you draft them.
How do you know he's not trying to work out a trade right now? Shit, it's not even close to the trade deadline yet. Relax.
Yes. Emphasis on what you've "already said" ... many, many times. Why don't you just e-mail KP with these suggestions on how to improve the team, because frankly I think you've got real potential as an assistant GM and KP would probably strongly consider bringing you on board with his staff. It's worth a shot right?
Dear Kevin Pritchard, I would suggest that you get something to help our team, otherwise i will TYPE IN ALL CAPS!!! MIXUM
gay, wallace, anthony randolph, butler, deng, gomes(reach but hes better then anyone we have) a good gm could pry one of those guys away. thats all we need
blake, outlaw, and cunningham... maybe a future 1st or 2nd rounder if its gay, butler, deng coming back. i mean if healthy... we are a playoff team so who cares about a late 1st rounder. kp cant draft for shit anymore anyway
I would like to point out that the Blazers made a move towards being more flexible to make a trade when they picked up the NBDL player. You cannot make a trade if it drops you below the available amount of bodies needed to play a game for a day or two while the trade is consumated. So getting another guy in was step one to allow some flexibility.
Give me three specific trades that realistically work. You can't really do a 2 for 1 or 3 for 2 right now because we don't have enough guys as it is.
