    In my opinion, he stays. I am 100% certain of it.

    Ya'll can bump it if he leaves, but it doesnt take away the fact that at 7:35 pm on April 22nd, 2015, I have 100% confidence that LMA will stay.

    I just hope he agrees to a sign & trade. No way do I want him for $127M or whatever it is.

    That would negate the staying part, blue9! Damnit!

    He's earned every dime of whatever money is owed to him.

    If LMA gives 2 hoots about winning - he walks.

    Why would he stay? What does he have to look forward to?

    He doesn't live here in the offseason.
    He goes into the playoff with a squad, they all get injured, but no one else shows up.
    He plays through a fractured thumb and the rest of the team plays like fucking bitches.

    I guess he can be the Blazers GOAT. That and the wheeling and dealing and the winning mentality of Neil Olshey are the only positives right now. Olshey is the type of GM to swing for the fences and get shit done.

    Disagree. There aren't ANY current PFs that deserve a $127M contract. PFs (that aren't Tim Duncan) don't lead teams to championships.

    Of course he'll stay. HE HAS ALREADY SAID HE WILL STAY. He is playing thru a thumb injury because he cares about the team.

    If he stays I have to pay $20.

    If he goes I get $200!

    Win/Win

    You can go back on your word. Guys do it ALL THE FUCKING TIME in this league.

    If he leaves, I won't blame him, unless he goes to the L*kers, then I'll burn his fucking jersey.

    Didn't Lebron say he was going to stay, too? There's been a precedence of players saying they'd stay and then bolting.

    I don't think LMA is that type, which is another reason why I made this thread.

    Is that legal? Not that I think it would happen, I'm just curious if two players can be signed & traded like that.

    And yet curiously, Popovich is looking to lure LA to San Antonio by offering him a max contract to replace Duncan. Guess Pop doesn't know as much about PFs as you do.

    Oh HELL no.

    I'd get sick of Kevin Love, and then the nauseating homegrown angle we'd hear all year. In that order.
