    I actually don’t. But at the same time Neil shouldn’t need to talk to Terry to understand what this team needs. None of us talk to him yet we all know the deal.

    That's brutal IMO. Ugly, dangerous trade.

    This is our one shot to land a top 5 player. Take all his injury history into consideration and get him here to run with Dame!

    I'm surprised how little attention that aspect has gotten. A one-on-one meeting that no one else in the organization knew about until after the fact? Allen isn't much for going to the press, so that doesn't leave many options for who shared details of the meeting, if indeed any of the report is factual.

    I would gut this roster of anyone but Dame and Nurk for Kawhi.

    CJ would probably like playing in Cleveland, with LeBron, as he's a Browns fan.

    Not that it will ever happen (as I doubt the veracity of the rumor, nor do I think the Spurs would take anything that Portland would offer back), I would trade anyone not named Damian for Kwahi Leonard.

    Take on Gasol as well.

    CJ, Aminu/Ed, and our first round pick for Kawhi and Gasol. That’s the best I got.

    Throw Zach in too. CJ/Zach/Aminu/pick for Pau and Kawhi.

    Do that today.

    They'd probably make us take Aldridge back as part of the deal.

    C.J, Nurk, and who ever else for Kawhi. It's not happening, but it's nice to think about it lol

    I think Olshey is in trouble after reading the article. There really isn't much he can do at this point. You don't make a trade just to be making a trading, it has to have a purpose. His trading of Barton looks really stupid now. And Aflallo was a big mistake. HCP has mentioned that Aflallo is a dick. He probably didn't mesh well with the locker room.
