    The power of the post? :cheers: If that is the case, we should all post varying threads about how Neil won't do anything substantial. Wait, that has been going on for years...

    Well it's obvious that the reason players don't sign with Portland is because of how fans are on this message board, so anything is possible.

    IFFFFF somehow NeO could pull off getting AD, I'd be almost as excited to see who would want to come play with the 2 of them.

    I still maintain that the owners of the Blazers and Pelicans should get together and toss a coin. If they win, they get Dame. If we win, we get Davis. Either way the players win.

    Does it even matter though? I mean, say Neil calls them up and offers CJ, Zach, Simons, and 3 #1s. Do they even consider it? I doubt it.

    In the theoretical world where they decide to trade him? Yes.

    Yeah we're never going to get Anthony Davis. But now that there's a thread on here (even if it has no fiber) some people will start to get their hopes up and then when it doesn't happen they'll inevitably blame Olshey for not getting it done. As usual.

    I wonder if the people not wanting to trade everything now and in the near future for Davis are the same people who think Melo is a good idea?

    And 2 #1s to the Pelicans. If they decide to trade him I’d think that gets us in the conversation.

    This trade gives the Pels a new skeleton to build around. Ingram\Kuz\Hart are all ~23.
    Zach is not that good and will never be a star, CJ is a bit too old to build around. They need like 3-4 years to stink while they accumulate enough stars around that skeleton.

    Watching the Pels. Man how the hell did we get swept by this team just 7 months ago?

    We thought Dame had no help, but AD needs to be superhuman for them to win.
