    You think we got near all-star value for CJ?

    I appreciate your opinion of what I do or don't need to try and do with myself. I will take your advice under serious consideration as soon as I get that mouse pad. :cheers:

    It's now been roughly 8 hours and change since this trade hit and unless i am mistaken neither the Blazers OR New Orleans have confirmed the deal -- I know i am harping on this but like someone mentioned when the blazers did the 1st deal a couple days ago the they had it announced within a few hours but it's silent as can be.

    This has to me more is going on and this could turn into a 3 heck at this point would not surprise me if this turned into a 4 team trade the longer this silence keeps going.

    However with the Blazers playing tonight don't they have to announce something like CJ is being held out pending a trade or something ??

    Lmfao we traded CJ and Nance for ONE pick and Josh Hart? Cronin is fucking garbage. Holy shit lmfao! We should have absolutely done CJ plus 3 first and 3 swaps for Simmons during the summer. What a fucking fleecing by New Orleans. Good news our cap is wide open to absorb a second tier star if we are crazy lucky and completely the opposite of Portland FA signing history. Our cupboard is now bare. I guess we kept Nas and Ant so thats something I guess?!

    The first trade was fucking garbage.

    This one, at least from a rebuild standpoint, makes more sense.

    That first one though, have mercy.

    If CJ is traded by all star weekend I wonder if KingSpeed can sub in for him?

    I guess we can still do the Grant trade but it's not happening anytime soon.

    But in all fairness now Zeller once healed can sign with a contender and the Blazers get jack for him -- you would think they MIGHT be able to get a 2nd rounder for him he is a solid big man -- but maybe i am wrong
