    we can't get him. Why would Detroit let him go?

    Pass. He will be 37 by next year's Playoffs. He defense will be even worse.

    We drafted him. But he was never a Blazer.

    For what position? A better SG? Doubtful. An athletic wing? We just got one. And we’re good at center.

    I doubt Melo would come off the bench in Portland, and if he did, I doubt terry would have the restraint to not play him 30 minutes anyway.

    Covington is a great pickup. One of the premier wing defenders in the league.

    We still have issues on offense in the playoffs. Can't rely on Dame to go super human every game.

    Been wanting RoCo for years.

    Like people said... that 2021 first needs to be heavily protected.

    But damn, finally a smart move.

    Yeah non lottery picks are extremely overrated imo. 90% of the time you just draft a role Player

    Wooow I really love this trade. And I’m usually very pessimistic but this is the type of trade other teams do and I go “wow why can’t we do something like that!”

    Great move

    I wonder where Ariza will end up after the Rockets waive him.
