    Is there any way to get Blake Griffin into a Blazers uni without giving up Lillard, McCollum or Plumlee?

    No, but I would be fine with a C.J. for Griffin type of trade.

    This moron recently broke his hand beating up a supposed friend. No way do the Blazers need to take on this kind of problem, I'll pass.

    I don't like Griffin at all for non basketball reasons but I'm pretty sure Olshey does..wouldn't surprise me if he's on the phone with the Clips right now

    I'd tank for the pick. And offer the pick and any combination of all players including plumlee, aminu, Vonleh for Blake griffin.

    Probably wouldnt work though.

    I wonder if a lotto pick and plumlee back to the nets could get brook Lopez

    One would think it is doubtful but what would LAC get from Denver unless it was Gallinari? Perhaps due to his fight, he can be had for less. Yes he had an incident but it sounds like this is a one-time thing and there hasn't been an issue with this type of behavior before. I would try to keep CJ but if that is what it cost, I'd do that deal. Griffin is only 2 years older and it would give Portland so much more balance and a major impact player coming back.

    I think he did, if not it was Dunleavy but pretty sure Neil was GM at that point

    Yes he did in 2009 and that seems to be a theme with him is acquiring players he has a past with.

    I love me some Crabbe legs. Dude gets around the court. I don't want to break up our 3 guard rotation. I'm confident in 2 years ,we will have the best 3 guard rotation in the NBA.

    So you'd willingly root to lose in hopes of landing Blake Griffin?

    Jesus Christ Almighty...
