    Batum needed to be traded either way. We got an upgrade for Lopez in plumee. Wes, the injury thing.

    MM will finally add a D to Leonard's last name now. Could you imagine Leonard becoming a 20/10 player?!

    Would you rather have him said, "I'm not sure if I will return." Which would have been the truth. Regardless, Portland still would have waited till free agency and tried to re-sign him. So either way, it would have been the same end-game.

    Do you actually think part way through the season or before last season he would have said "Oh yeah, I'm definitely not coming back to Portland, they should trade me."

    the only one who "bolted" was Aldridge, I think mgmt knew that was likely and they chose to trade Nic and get some value back, Wes was easy to let go after the Achilles injury and given how much he got paid and for how long, and Rolo is just not that good - especially for 13 ml per when we get Plumlee for 1.4 mil per

    Leonard will be a 15/9 guy next season imho. With actual efficient shooting and effort on defense.

    I'm sorry but Aldridge is better than Splitter and Bellinelli. It's not even close

    I don't blame him for leaving come on Duncan, Leonard, Green and Parker now Aldridge best starting 5 in the NBA easy. Plus, they also have a nice 8 million dollar trade exception from trading Splitter that they can use to add even more depth.

    Olshey couldn't even hold Buford's jock

    Adding Aldridge isn't enough.

    Yeah I suppose you're right.. We didn't show loyalty (rightfully so) but that might have looked bad in some players eyes (LA)

    We will see. Look, I'm really salty that Aldridge isn't a true leader too. But he's one helluva Robin.

    I wish Aldridge would have done what he's going to do in Portland, but he doesn't have the mental capacity to do it on his own

    I'm not a huge Blazer fan like most of you guys here. I'm more of an NBA fan than a Blazer fan, but they are the team I root for since I moved to Portland 7 years ago. I can see why most Blazer fans are angry, but from an outside perspective it makes sense. He's chasing a championship. Whether you want to hear it or not. He wasn't going to win shit in Portland.
