    IMO We aren’t getting Jordan, doesn’t make sense, we are not gonna make the team worse at the deadline, Dame would freak.

    I’d do that knicks deal. Turner is still a good player, just doesn’t fit Portland as much. Noah is useless but I’d do it if it netted us Lee.

    Can you imagine Noah in Oregon though lmfao! (DNP-CBD)

    The trade would likely be Shabazz, Nurkic,
    Turner, either Ed Davis or Noah Vonleh for DJ and Lue Williams.

    With the Clippers trying to be players in FA. There is zero chance they will accept Turner.

    That’s cool that after I explained why they wouldn’t take Turner that you went ahead with it anyway.

    Ed is solid. Lately whenever he goes in they increase or maintain the lead. He's too good for the money.

    There really isn’t anything Jordan brings that Davis also doesnt, except the ability to bang with traditional centers. but we already have one of those, who’s much younger. The more I talk about Jordan the more I want to bang my head into my wall.

    The only way I see us getting Jordan is if we can give away Meyers and maybe Harkless with it and then Jordan leaves at the end of the year puitting us well below the lux tax.,

    Sure, but they don’t want overpaid young players eating into their cap space.

    Not a chance in hell the clippers take on Turner. I’ll eat a shoe if that happens.

    It all depends on what lebron does.

    I could see lebron and Durant going to the clippers, but if lebron doesn’t go there this off-season, I could see the clippers blowing it up.

    So basically, if the clippers want to suck, they will take his contract.

    Clippers are set up to have a shit ton of cap space for the summer of 2019 when guys like Jimmy Butler become free agents. No way would they take on a contract like Turner.

    Our only hope for Turner is Minnesota imo.
