Exclusive Blazer Trade Ideas From Other Teams' Forums

I got angry at first too. Then I just started laughing at his justification in the subsequent posts.

Portland is 5.5 games ahead of LA. We are 4th in the west, they are 10th.

We have two stars in their primes. They have one star who is 34 and at the end of his career.

Why would we be the team to blow up the roster? It should be LA.

 

Someone had lost their myopic mind.

 

STFU

 

Seems like kind of a whiny response.

 

Oh you too @e_blazer ????

 

Never could resist jumping on top of a good pig pile.

 

This is why I only jump if I can be on top.

 

Yeah, right after I hit the post button I said that one isn’t going to end well for me.

 

Yoooooo @Boob-No-More is posting in that thread. WTF. Come back, homie, you're missed here!

 

I noticed he hasn't' posted in awhile. Was wondering what was up.

 

He was a really good poster but if one guy having a crappy morning made him leave, he was going to leave eventually...

 

It's a bad risk. Plain and simple.

And I don't want either of those injury prone players so IMO, to choose between the two, especially at the expense of a healthy CJ, is a non starter for me. I'd f rather we not do anything than trade for either of them.

 

I just don't see this ownership signing off on Blake.

A shiny clean, fresh new owner may not care about Oden, Roy etc. But I bet this one is still gun shy on pulling the trigger with that much risk for that contract. Right or wrong.

 

I think Blake's price tag is the game changer...you can sign several great players for his 34 million or whatever he makes a season...to trade for a top PF the seamless trade would be for ….get ready...yup...Lamarcus Aldridge, Rolo....and Wes Mathews....almost zero adjustment curve going into the playoffs...and yeah..it'll never happen and Wes is not the same..but compared to what Blake gets paid..just trading for a .Vucevic and Mirotic or Randle would make us much, much better and fit the timeline...

 

I agree Blazers would never help the L@kers like that, but I don't think that trade is totally dreadful (aside from Ball going back to the L@kers first chance he gets.

Blazers get younger, you get a taller guard who defends better and runs the team faster, you get a couple more forwards with nice upsides, some potentially decent draft picks if LeBron gets hurt, and all this allows you to wait until the Warriors start to fall and LeBron ages.

PG: Ball; Simons
SG: CJ; Trent;
SF: Ingram; Harkless
PF: Kuzma; Aminu
C: Nurkic; Biebs

Plus, with the picks you have flexibility to move CJ and use Ingram, Simons or Trent to SG.

If Blazers don't win with Dame and CJ then some might look back and think this would have been a decent trade.

Sure, I'd rather have Dame and AD, but if I couldn't do that then . . .

How would you feel about that trade if they swapped out Dame for CJ? I would do that one yesterday.

 

I was researching a bunch of other team's forums and sites for any trade rumors involving the Blazers from the perspective of non-Blazers fans and I can't wait to share all the crappy ones with you fine people.
