    I hope TRob doesn't let the door hit him on the way out.

    I wish TRob well! Hope he lands where there is ample opportunity to grow as a player. He was treated well here and earned my respect for his unselfish energy. Just not a great fit. Coaching mismatch. TRob needs a simple playbook like Orlando or Detroit uses to utilize his style of play. I feel the same about Barton. Two east coast guys. They would both play minutes on a lot of eastern conference teams.

    He needs to be in a situation where he can get consistent playing time, and a coach who'll let him play through his mistakes.

    Unfortunately I don't think Denver is that place with Faried/Hickson at PF and Nurkic emerging. Not to mention McGee is finally back.

    I hope we keep Vic, I've always had a soft spot for him. being behind one of the best power forwardsin LA and Batum who never takes a break is hard for development

    I'm still surprised Brian Shaw has a job. I predicted he'd be the first fired coach this season. Denver is now the bus station of the NBA

    Victor is a photo negative of TRob as a player. High hoops IQ but will never make a highlight reel.

    @TheAmySchwartz: Even though everyone practiced, we did not see Thomas Robinson or Will Barton and they were not available to media after practice. #Blazers

    What's with you
    I like him too. And hope that they can get him. Love the fact he creates his own shot and he is def an adequate replacement if Wes leaves. Which I dont see happening

    Once I heard we had a chance to get Afflalo, I don't even want chandler. That wouldn't be a good get knowing what we could have if we can get them to bite on it. I have always liked Afflalos' game, and think he just needs to be in the right situation, which I think we can offer.

    I do too. And I always thought he was a better defender than some in this forum was crediting him for. At least with what I can remember under George Karl.

    To the best of my knowledge, you've never pulled down 10 rebounds in an NBA game and yet you bash Aldridge all the time. :smile:
