    Good question. I'd have traded him for a 4 years younger Paul Milsap, but at 30, probably not. Maybe Brook Lopez, Marc Gasol, Karl-Anthony Towns.

    I see that about finishing at the rim and drawing fouls. Remember though that Lillard used to be terrible at the rim as well. He can improve. And I am not thinking cj for president either. I just haven't personally been impressed with any of the realistic ideas. And trading just for the sake of it is dumb and counterintuitive.

    Wiggins didn't jump out at me offensively or defensively tonight.

    I know he's young but I really dont think Wiggins will ever be a top player in the league. Don't get the hype.

    Wiggins face looks like he's 6 years old. No.

    I think he will/should be a better version of Harrison Barnes.

    I totally agree. I just see him on the Rudy Gay level. Fine player, but not in the top level.

    I'd trade him for Brandon Roy with good knees from 2008...

    Outside of Stars like George and Cousins, I'd think about accepting something like Avery Bradley, Jared Sullinger, and Brooklyn's first round pick for CJ.

    Ever since the hoop summit I've thought wiggins was another batum. All the talent in the world, but lacking that killer instinct to make him great. He's a role player on a good team.

    I never understood the T-Mac comparison. I always thought of him as a Gerald Green with his head on straight.

    He is the only low post player in the NBA that can absolutely dominate anybody offensively. He needs a change of scenery desperately, he was a headcase coming into the NBA and was drafted to the least stable team in the league possibly. Portland would be fantastic for him, it can hide him from the media and he will have stability and a couple locker room leaders in place, he won't have to be the man. He will get to be the #2 man he really is meant to be in today's NBA.

    I don't want to watch Lillard pound it into Cousins 25 times a night. That's boring-ass basketball. If Cousins was really that good, Sacto would be winning more. Kevin Love put up big numbers on a bad team too, now look at him.

    FUCK COUSINS I'D NEVER TRADE ANYONE FOR HIM.

    I don't think that would be the gameplan at all. We would have a lot of movement, it wouldn't be like Sacramento where Rondo dicks around then drops it into him. Would be a lot more like how Detroit utilized Rasheed.

    I don't think u read the entire question/post: "...who would you REALISTICALLY be okay with trading CJ for..."

    I like CJ a lot & he's very good but... for Marc Gasol (even CJ for the other Gasol straight up is questionable) or KAT...? KAT's pretty much a lock to b a Hall of Famer, u think CJ will ever b close to even consideration for HOF?o_O
