    So this guy's little deal basically hinges on the Pelicans trading Ryan Anderson for a protected first and the right to trade up 3 spots? Hmm...that's silly. To me, that would be like us trading Batum for a similar return.

    To simplify the trade above, would we give up Batum, Leonard, and 10 for Zeller and 1?

    Not sure I like the idea of the blazers turning down an offer such as that.

    I like the fact that at the age of 21 he's being introduced to hills. Man, he really is from Illinois.

    Such an offer would likely never be made.

    true but I meant that the individual who responded (I'm assuming) acted like he felt the Blazers wouldn't wnt to give up on Leonard. Thats the train of thought I hope they don't have.

    Especially when Washington can just be cut out of the deal. Pelicans give up 6 and Anderson for 3 and future pick. Why not just get #1, and ignore the future pick, since there's a good chance Washington can be a playoff team.

    Or vice versa, if you're David Kahn.

    Wait, then he couldn't GM. It's an infinite loop!!!!

    Fair point, but if he's like my teenage son, he's being introduced to "the outside".

    I was hoping for a poll where we actually get to rate Leonard.

    That would be: "People! Rate Meyers Leonard!"

    Because #6 is better than #10 and Zellar is better than Lynard? Just a thought. :dunno:
