    Considering how close a 3-or-4 team deal supposedly was and how NY wants Harkless, you'd think it'd be done or at least there's be more momentum in the media if he was willing to come here.

    I think it's gonna come down to if he'd rather play for PDX or NY.

    Houston nor the Cavs have anything to offer.

    We have a couple pretty impressive rookies one by performance and one by potential, Harkless, etc.

    You guys give this Kat way too much credit and are reading into it more than maybe you should. When he finally does something that makes me say "Wow". I might join in but until then. This stuff just makes me lol.

    now were going somewhere

    youre right, hes had 20 games as a Blazer, but how did he played in those 20 games... I have a feeling theres POR fans who think he isnt that good, and that those 2o games were a fluke, like honeymoon phase

    I know him, I watched him while in Europe, and I watched like 90% games while he was in DEN, so I know what he can do right now, and what he can add to his game... I know he has high upside on offense and I dont want him to get diminished in that regard

    hes already like TOP 10 C in the league, and I say he can become TOP 5 C in the future, but he wont if you dont bring the best out of his offensive game... hes by no means finished product, thats what people need to now, and if he was in POR those three years, insted of DEN, well, hed be even better player know

    This makes sense. New York would be able to create a bidding war between Portland and whichever team Houston can find to buy them a Melo.

    Nobody wants Ryan Anderson...... so I don't think they will find another team.

    Yeah, it was a joke--like they'd need to find a team to buy Anthony for them as a gift.

    Personally, I feel like jokes get better when explained.

    Getting Nurk and a first round pick for an expiring Plumlee didn't make you say wow???

    Well, I'll say it for you...

    Wow, you're a tough man to impress.

    Sometimes I think CJ comes off a little too desperate with players who are somehow rumored to Portland.

    Tweets won't convince anyone. It's backroom conversations.

    No trade with the Knicks unless we can include @HCP.

    The tweets put images and ideas into the minds of those in the back room conversations though...

    I like this as a fun way to dump a few years worth of salaries.
