    We should help him get burn this season by moving him to a team that has the minutes to give.

    Also guards aren't bigs, it doesn't take 3 years (especially after being a 4 year college player) to get acclimated to the game. It takes minutes and at best next year he would get around 15ish a game if he made a HUGE improvement, which I just don't see happening here.

    Toronto trying to pry away Taj or Faried...

    Clippers trying to land Wilson Chandler...

    Like the past few years I think this deadline will be more smoke than fire.

    His numbers actually aren't that bad. Though, he is putting up those numbers on the worst team in the league.

    Vet minimum? Sure, but It depends on what Neil does at the deadline.

    Meyers is rapidly developing at PF and T-Rob continues to rack up the DNP's.

    Taj over Faried? Even with his down year I think you easily take Faried over Taj.

    Unfortunately I don't think Faried is an option for Portland when you consider his contract - $2m this year, $11m next year.

    I don't think Portland could even trade for him anyway. Doesn't that "poison pill" part of his contract make him untradable for those teams over cap?

    cj'S TRADE VALUE RISING!
    we don't want/need a PF like Faried or Taj, another wing (2/3) S/B the target IMO

    I'd definitely take Taj over Faried right now. Faried's raw numbers are slightly better but Taj gets the edge because he can score one on one in the post (and mid-range), he protects the rim better, and he's bigger and can play at C for stretches no problem.

    Of course Faried is 25 and Taj is 29. And they're quite comparable. Its tough finding bigs who can score and defend the rim though. Taj isn't a star but hes competent at both.

    Yeah, a two or three is what they should be looking at.

    I'd make room for Amare in a heartbeat.

    Do a trade like this http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=pj6ml8h (Getting a 2nd from Chicago), then turn around and do this http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=odj2fwd (sending our 1st to Denver). Then give Francisco Garcia a vet min.

    Lillard / Blake
    Matthews / Afflalo
    Batum / Crabbe / Garcia
    Aldridge / Stoudemire-Freeland-Leonard (depending on matchups)/ Wright
    Lopez / Stoudemire-Freeland-Leonard (depending on matchups)/ Biyomba

    I worry Amare would hurt chemistry. Does he still consider himself to be a star?
