    I think the Blazers are up next to steal a coach from the Ducks.

    You can't say he's untouchable and mention that you'd trade him for other player(s) in the same post, but I get your point. It's fair to not want to trade him, I just think it's a bit silly.

    There are dozens of players I'd rather Sharpe for and that doesn't mean I don't like his game or his potential. The Endowment Effect is a real thing in sports, but I don't think overvaluing your own players is the best way to run an organization.

    Unless the team is a contender (they're not), I'm always open to trading any player who would move them towards that goal be it short or long term. Not make a trade for trading sake, but upgrade the team. I am impressed with the moves that have been made and am happy that Cronin is in charge.

    None of the poll options fit those thoughts so I didn't vote.
