    I agree unless someone good is available we like for cheap - perhaps a team looking to get out of the tax as we now have a 20 mil TPE, a great pick and some young guys

    Interesting Blazers have not yet acknowledged the CJ trade on their instagram. They did promptly with Norm and Roco

    Because we’re getting jerami grant in the trade. It’s being expanded

    Majority of this place haven't made a rational post here at S2 in that timeframe as well. #BAM

    What's the rush. Better to keep the team weak and hold onto those draft picks until the draft.

    Be careful. I used the Ellis comparison a few weeks ago and some posters were shitting their pants about it. I agree with you 100% though.

    1) You were wrong on my first thought. Nice try!
    2) You commenting about me and not about the question says it all. It's ok to take an L on your CJ is an all-star talent and his contract isn't bad take. I've taken plenty of L's on takes.

    Ready to pay up on our wager yet?

    CJ is a good guy, I wish him the best.
    He should of been traded years ago.
    The value we got back wasn't great, just makes that clippers trade look worse and worse.
    This franchise is in horrible hands at the moment. Owner needs to sell as soon as possible and we need an actual gm ASAP. Incompetents leadership will never yield positive results and our ownership and GM seems amongst worst in the league at the moment.

    @BonesJones and @hoopsjock are my yin and yang. Torey's rage sessions is like half of my reaction to all this.... and Eric's sullen depression is my other half.

    Except his contract isn't bad considering the Pelicans actually gave up value for it. Also, there's no need for you to try to one-up yourself all the time.
