    I don't recall rookies being traded other than on Draft night. Isn't there a rule about it or something?

    Huh, OK, good to know. So just so we don't trade Scoot tonight, doesn't mean we won't trade him what, by the end of Free Agency is that when the summer trade deadline is?

    Just the reports that Cle is looking to trade him to regain draft capital from the Mitchell trade and their desire for a wing.

    Trading scoot would be the most Portland move of all time, and not in a good way

    That’s the point…put a god damn team together. You think scoot and shaedon have us in the playoffs in two years? I don’t. That totals up to zero playoff wins

    Ed O -- with all due respect how is this not trying to do the same thing -- HELL he is smaller then Ant and CJ so how --- explain this to me cause your wrong just plain wrong

    I have no problem if fans just want to move on from Dame but if these same fans think Dame AND Scoot can be a winner together then your insane and that is a fact and this is a hill I am willing to die on.

    If we don’t make the playoffs then we have two more lotto picks. The world isn’t ending in two years. The team goes on.

    I don't think Portland is done. The Dame-Scoot-Ant-Sharpe-Thybulle back court is way to crowded, and Ant is the square peg

    and it's really obvious that the Blazers have spent the last 2 months seriously shopping Ant and Nurkic

    IIRC, the rule is they can't be traded for 60 days AFTER THEY ARE SIGNED

    Aren’t you tired of being mediocre? Or just bad? Dame is a top 75 player of all time….scoot hasn’t played a minute and shaedon had 12 good games at the end of the season. I think we win two of those games.

    11 and 13 worth keeping an eye on for me. I know now teams are calling about Dame though

    Agree that Scoot and Dame are not going to be a championship team. Trading Dame is the next step here. We all love him and will adore him FOREVER but Dame Time = Trade Time at this point.

    Westbrook and Harden made it to the finals. Paul and Harden and Gordon won more games than any Rocket team ever.
