    Is that trade on the table? If CJ sucks, why would they want to give up the "two way player" for him?

    A lot of players are better than CJ....BECAUSE IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT SCORING. I guess Ben Wallace was crap because he didn't score. #DPoY #Ring

    That happens so many times a game. When he gets the ball, players either stop moving or their cuts are lethargic because they know they aren't getting the ball.

    Put good players around CJ and Dame. Don't trade them. Or we could do like we did with Clyde and Sheed and send them to play with other players and win a title. You don't trade to Sheed, you try to get Ben Wallace to Portland.

    Good thing the whoreurs are trash, because we are going to need all the help we can get in the second half.

    This team looks so soft. I wouldn't be afraid of them either. Great night for a contender to rest some guys.

    Let's see if the Blazers can muster any testicular fortitude in the third quarter.

    You're cute. You don't understand basic concepts about value of a player and reasonable value in the market.

    CJ has a lot of a value. He sucks for us, but he could Oladipo for a team better suited for his ball hogging style. He'd probably be great on a team like the Knicks, Nets, Magic, etc. But then you have to think bout value coming back.

    I could go on for paragraphs, but you... much like CJ, have tunnel vision. Couple that with your black and white thinking, there wouldn't be a reason.

    We can't get Ben Wallace to Portland because we have nothing to trade for a player of that never except CJ.

    I would gladly trade CJ to CLE for the BKN pick and I'd hope CJ could win a ring with LeBron.

    So with those shooting stats, you're saying he is no Meyers. .667 FG% and .538 from '3' this season. :cheers: (Where is the green font button...)

    It doesn't matter if we put good players around CJ, he doesn't pass to them.

    Have you really not figured that out yet?
