Compared to younger me? Yes. Compared to these 20 year old skinny jeans wearing packs of 150 lb boys I see at the gym? Not even close
Probably a handful of ways to get it done. If we're slightly under the cap, we could use that room, a pick or young assest, and a S&T Whiteside on a one year deal. Spurs do it to get out of $50m of LMA over 2 years and start their rebuild. Portland does it to try and salvage the last couple years of Dame's prime.
I’m still very very salty he left us hanging. Don’t know how I would feel him coming back to Portland.
Dame had taken over the Blazers twitter yesterday and said that. Prolly can't do that from the main page-- hence the takedown.
I'm fine with it. I think he'd be good as a third big behind Nurk/Collins. I'd rather have him than Whiteside. Now if he wants so many touches or guaranteed role then pass. I think at this point he is over himself and knows he's past his prime. If he has a better chance to win on Dame's team than in SA he'd be up for it.
I’m just hurt badly by him hosing us. Almost unforgivable imo. Don’t worry, if he does come and helps us win, all is forgiven.
With how aloof LMA is, he'd be the perfect teammate in this social distancing era. No one can get close to him!
Dame CJ Ariza Aldridge Nurkic That’s a beautiful five. Making a trade might require a third team/gymnastics, but it’s a players league...they usually get what they want. Spurs should probably be looking to retool, while Portland needs to make a serious push while they have their best players locked up. I will say this though, id probably wanna take a longer look at the Collins/PF experiment before pursuing Aldridge. We may get that chance once the season resumes, but I also wouldn’t mind waiting another season.
I like the idea of Zach as our third big man, and he can come off the bench in a pinch. Nurk at his peak here still only played 29 mpg, and Aldridge in the low 30s the past few years. Plenty of minutes to go around for all three and good versatility of skillsets. Is it bad that I totally forgot Ariza was still here?
