    We get to keep Trent too. This is an easy yes.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Hard to take that seriously, when they weren't even able to figure out what the best trade package the Blazers could offer is. Imagine thinking that Simons (or, for that matter, Little or Collins) makes the package better than Trent does.

    I bet you anything Neil is lowballing the rockets for Harden and when he finally gets dealt to someone else everyone on this board will be like “What!? We could have beaten that deal! Why didn’t we beat that deal!?”

    Book it.

    This lineup with Stotts coaching style would be in contention for no.1 pick

    Blazers package aside, if Boston won't include Tatum, Philly won't include Simmons, Brooklyn won't include Kyrie, etc, all of a sudden, the Blazers don't seem as much of a longshot. Excellent audition by CJ in front of the Houston GM last night....well done.

    Not surprised, but this is going to make whiffing on Paul George pale in comparison.

    There are at least 30-35 players CJ should easily be traded for if the opportunity arises.

    oh great, now we're going to get a lot of bitching about CJ being untouchable. Reading the quote from Jason Quick, it sure doesn't seem to relate to this trade. More of a why he's rejected moving him in the past.

    Hood/Jones/Zach/GTJ/Kanter/3 1s ???

    Dame/Simons
    CJ/CJ2
    Harden/Nas
    RoCo/Melo
    Nurk/Giles

    Bench would straight up suck. Same with D

    Much better than the current team, but this roster could MAYBE get to the WC finals in the playoffs...

    Dude, Houston would never ever trade Harden for Hood, DJJ, Zach, Trent, Kanter and 3 1sts

    Say what folks will but CJ defended the hell out of his job against the Rockets!
