    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Advanced stats suggest that Irving's a winner and a champion while Westbrook's a choker.

    That's just a bold faced lie.... they won't trade him his dinner...... it's provided by the team... gratis.

    I am, and I wouldn't trade those 3 either. Apparently Neither would Neil, otherwise we'd have Griffin on our team.

    We have a logjam in the frontcourt. A consolidation trade for Griffin would be great.

    i dont know what up with all the plumlee hate though. dude played his ass off last year and is a class act. i like him on my team. doesnt hurt to have back up for ezeli just in case. plus everyone crying about rest and heavy minutes, why not have a 3 center rotation to keep the big guys fresh and less likely to get injured? hell one night sit ezeli next night sit plums next fiz ed. keep those legs strong.

    3 good players who seem to have bought into this system > An All-Star PF who could very well jump ship in FA.

    If he was willing to stay it'd be great.

    I wouldn't trust him as far as I could throw him.

    Plus, Griffin brings a new demographic to be racist against:

    Black Ginger.

    There's only one dog on this forum that triple dog dares anyone to wear heels, and it's because he's a filthy filthy old man. :grin:

    I don't think anyone is hating on Plumlee - I'm certainly not, even though I'm advocating for trading him. I quite like the guy and wouldn't mind keeping him. I just think the chances are high that he'll get an offer too large to match next summer. Maybe I'll be wrong this time around, but if it were me - given the bigs we have under contract - I'm not taking the chance. Of course, I'm not trading him for peanuts, either.
