Ridiculous idea to think Deng will fix the Blazers at Allen Crabbe's salary....sheesh folks....let's get older, slower and pay more luxury tax eh?....Chief or Mo are younger and better than Deng at this point in his career
that is a great trade @HCP . Think about it, Lonzo already has had a triple double (granted not during the regular season)! Damian hasn't EVER had a triple double! DO THE MATH!

Of course that is not going to happen. Vets who get bought out always seem to chase the ring. So the usual suspects will get first crack.
Dang I thought this would work. Swapping rosters with somebody's favorite team. http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=ydymgqfa
Last year I would've said yes, but I like Turner more this year. Deng seems perpetually injured, too.
and he is not aging well at all and he's got two yrs left after this - he's one of the worst/hardest movable contracts in the NBA IMO
Deng is done. There's nothing there that changes this team's fortunes in the short-term and especially not in the long-term, and definitely not at his salary. All things being equal, this is trading nothing much for nothing much. I've gotta believe there's a better trade to be made if I'm Neil Olshey.
OK fair enough. You are all probably right....we can do better. However I doubt very much that some of you watched Laker games last January and February on NBA league pass...which was the last time he played. So I think most of you are guessing on whether he is done or not. I did because it is on the local cable station and I can watch multiple games at once. But did you guys really seek out that shtty team last year and watch them?
