The OFFICIAL You be the GM thread

Who are saying we should? I personally would get a guy who has proved he can hit the 3. Someone like Korver or Dunleavy.

 

Totally. Joel did have some good stints towards the end of the year though. If he became a consistent scoring option off the bench that would be great.

 

The poll that is live on OLive right now. It is like 80% for keeping him.

e: I'm sorry it confused me by putting the higher number first instead of keeping it consistent of yes on top no on bottom.

 

I think you are reading it backwards.

Edit: Nevermind, just saw your edit.

 

133 people need to have their heads examined. Babbitt is not an NBA player. I actually think he'll have trouble finding suitors in Europe too.

 

Next up is Nolan Smith. Last year's vote was 64% stay.

Should Nolan Smith stay or go? (This one should be a landslide) Maybe better question is does Nolan Smith make a NBA team next year or go overseas?

 

Next up is Sasha Pavlovic

Should Sasha Pavlovic be brought back as an end of the roster move? Possible veteran shooter off the bench? Or can we do better at a vet minimum contract?

 

Next up is Joel Freeland.

Should he stay or should he go? (This one is easy unless you trade him he has a guaranteed contract)

 

For me Joel finally showed enough improvement at the end of the season where I would have no problem keeping him.

If he was the missing piece in a deal to get a legit Center though then I would pull the trigger.

 

Next up is Meyers Leonard.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/trail-blazers-meyers-leonard-you-be-the-gm.html

Should we bring back the young big guy? Would you rather trade him instead of the 10th pick in this years draft?

 

It's a different question today.....

Is Meyers Leonard the Blazers' center of the future? Not should he stay or go. That makes The Dude think a little bit more about the answer.

 

OLive can term it however they want but there is always the possibility of a trade. That would be the "go" portion.

 

What a depressing thought.

 

Next up is Will Barton.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/you_be_the_gm_will_barton.html

Is he trade fodder this off-season? Could he be the backup SG next year?

 

Next up is Damian Lillard.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/you_be_the_gm_damian_lillard.html

Is there any realistic trade this summer that you could see him moved in?

 

No. That said, the "most" realistic I could come up with in the matter of a few seconds would be Lillard for Lin/Asik/draft picks.

 

I not saying there is a deal there but if there was then I think you would see LMA moved in that deal (they would have to add Terrance Jones and maybe something else too) instead of Lillard.

 

Next up is Wesley Matthews. Last year it was 88% Stay.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/i...azers-wesley-matthews-you-be-the-gm-2013.html

Is Wesley the perfect player for our team and should stay? Would you trade him in a package-deal this summer to get a legit Center?

 

Next up is Nicolas Batum. Last year it was 91% Stay.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/i...blazers-nicolas-batum-you-be-the-gm-2013.html

Is Batum going to live up to his contract? Should we deal him?

 

Next up is LaMarcus Aldridge. Last year it was 91% Stay.

http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2013/05/you_be_the_gm_lamarcus_aldridge.html

Do you see any realistic trades this summer where we should part with LMA?
