    Lol, maybe you should watch less of the ball and more of the off-ball movement if you really think that's true.

    Everytime a rumour hit the medias, it's already dead. So I guess it's a good sign?

    The more I am interested in Jahlil Okafor, the more I think he could really be a nice get for us.

    I'm not really a fan but he definitely seems like a good buy low candidate, kinda like trob was couple years ago. His offense is kind of intriguing

    You know, if the Spurs did win the championship at least we can say the Blazers developed Aldridge.

    FWIW, I'd trade Turner for Ricky in an instant. I think it would help both teams. He'd be the perfect backup PG next to CJ for 25-30 mpg. And we can move him to defend starting PGs when they're going off on Dame. Annnd, Thibs apparently loves ET.

    Maybe incorporate Dieng in there for pick/others from our end.

    "The Hornets are going through a rough stretch right now and there may not be a quick fix available, but the team’s front office generally does well in trades, according to Rick Bonnell of The Charlotte Observer, who argues that there’s “certainly incentive to shake something up on this roster.”"

    I have always thought a legit second string PG would be something that would make more of a difference than most. Have dame and cj do the same rotation they are currently in but have the ACTUAL pg out there with cj so that he is playing his natural position.

    How quickly can we sign Steve Blake, and trade him for Rubio?

    So when will we know if we've traded for anyone? I'm not exactly sure how the "deadline" works. Are we okay to trade now, or would it have had to have been made before the deadline?

    You can start making trades now, but most teams wait until the 11th hour when they have multiple offers to mull over -- deadlines spur action. As far as getting the trade done, as far as I know they just have to have the trade call in before the deadline with the league office.

    So maybe a three team trade with Minnesota and Charlotte, give up Turner, Hark, Ezeli, and our picks for Rubio, Deing and a guy from the hornets, maybe Marvin Williams...minny and Charlotte swap some guys in it...idk
