    I think they will want more than we can give them. Someone like Crabbe will almost certainly not interest them.

    I feel like we are in the offseason again just waiting on moves. Watch one never be made...

    Would they like Harkless?

    I'd really like to get Whiteside without giving up Harkless. If we trade Harkless then we improve at C but take a huge step backwards at SF, which is the hardest position to find talent at (along with SG).

    Eek. I might get ridiculed, but I'd be hesitant to spend all those assets. It that's what it actually took, I might do it - but that certainly wouldn't be my first offer. My first offer would be Ezeli, Plumlee, Meyers + ours/CLE's 2017 picks.

    Yeah, first glance, I don't love it, but then I try to think of it as a Miami fan. I dunno. Plumlee rfa status is tough on them. Harkless locked in relatively cheap. Vonleh still with upside to try out for them. I dunno.

    Whoever made the Lillard for Giannis trade idea, please stop. CJ for Jabari and Henson? once again please stop with these really terrible ideas. That is insane

    I got a better trade idea though. Package both Lillard and CJ for Jeff Withey. OMG BEST IDEA EVUUUUUUURRRRRR

    I would give up literally anything for Whiteside if it meant keeping CJ (and dame for you smart shits)

    If we get Whiteside to team up with CJ and Lillard, we could have dunleavy at SF and still win 50 games.

    I strongly disagree. You will need a better than average defender first in that position( I think Hark can become one). You will need someone who cna stop some guys from getting to the lane, so Whiteside isnt fouling out in the third quarter every third game.

    If we trade for Whiteside and keep Dame/CJ, then we also need to keep Harkless & Turner, or replace them with an elite defender.

    Who wouldn't look at a deal for Whiteside for either Dame or CJ?

    You have to give to get. Their not going to take Pat and a 2nd. We would certainly miss either one of them for sure. But we always overvalue our players in a trade. I know I do.

    Giving up dame for basically anything realistic is just foolish.

    I would hate to give up either one of them, unless we had the chance to become a contender with that trade.

    Whiteside would make us a contender within the next season or so.

    If we had to trade either Dame or CJ to get him I strongly disagree. Even with Dame/CJ/Whiteside I think we're a dark horse at best.

    I'd only do it (CJ) if I knew I was gonna package my two picks for another young stud to pair with Dame/Whiteside.
