Kat available?

It would likely have to be a boat load with multiple 1st round picks. The question then becomes does he provide enough for what it would cost and pretty much every team will likely be monitoring the situation so a team will likely have to pay a premium. I'm a Dallas Cowboys fan and loved Herschel Walker but what the Vikings gave the Cowboys made them a 3 time super bowl champion and Vikings in mediocracy for awhile.

You would def. trade for KAT. That's a no-brainer IMHO. He has MVP potential. Strong potential. I love Nurk but they aren't in the same category. Give them anything but Dame.

How far would a Kat and Dame team go with very little depth though? An example would be New Orleans with Davis and Holiday.

He has MVP potential like Shareef Abdur Rahim did.

If KAT becomes available what would you be willing to give up? Simons and Collins?

If i had the uncomfortable position of a GM?

Whatever 2-3 players they want.
No 1st round draft picks.
If they want Dame they can't have Simons.

Look at what LA had to give up for Davis. That would be similar.

Simons,Nurk,Nassir and 2-3 firsts must be the minimum we ll need to give up.

I suppose the would also like CJ to get assets by trading him
 
doubt they would be in the cj market. expiring whiteside, simmons, collins, little and unprotected first. or drop one of the three on rookie contracts and three firsts with protections.
nurk, bazemore, ,collins, simmons, little and 2 unprotected firsts for KAT and dieng. personally not liking this second scenario, but minnesota probably bites on this package if they are set on trading him. Kat is under contract for 4 more seasons. vanterpoole is their coach and might value the relationships he already has established with everyone outside of little and the expiring bazemore. all except bazemore are former 1st round picks. so 1 late lottery, 2 late round firsts and the surprise that is the unprotected firsts, and cap relief for KAT and the additional years and salary of dieng

No, he doesn't play defense, he's weak mentally and he's not a winner. Price tag is way too high for someone who wouldn't make the team better. Comparing him to AD is ridiculous.

i agree with your assessment and am just trying to be realistic concerning what the acquisition cost would likely be though, as he is a young allstar signed to a 4 year contract. i don't feel that in a vacuum, his addition to our current team, would make us into annual title contenders against the super teams of the west.
 
I hate to sound like Olshey, but...
There aren't a lot of promising,physically gifted and supremely talented players available out there and if they were - they wouldn't be available to us. No one is making Luka Doncic or Zion available right?

If you make a decision to do a rebuild, there aren't a lot of players as good as KAT to start with.
 
Can't imagine why we'd want him.

No way he fits here, or most teams for that matter.
 
The Blazers are not a good team. I'm not the biggest fan of KAT. But, anytime you can acquire star or superstar level talent, you do so without thinking twice.

The assumption that the Blazers can't use a player of that caliber because he won't fit in is complete and utter nonsense. I'm the biggest fan of Nurk ever. One of my favorite players ever. You still find a way to get KAT if you can.
 
There is a "rumor" that KAT & Booker want to play together. The Suns probably have enough assets to make the trade.
 
Not happening. Kat will never be a blazer
 
No thanks. All offense no defense. I’d rather stick with Nurk.
