    Now that is the $64 question now isn't it. There are other quotes in the thread that are bringing up the trade deadline.

    One thing i think that might be getting in the way here? Was this thread "Merged"? I actually don't even recall a lot of the conversation on this that has gone on here?

    Own being wrong when you brought up Pippen? WTF man? Get outta here. Like i already did. just the first page has multiple topics about his offense and that is just one page. Then you jump in here and bring up Scottie Pippen and think someone ain't gonna call yer shit? Plaese....See ya. Yeah i'm tired of this shit too.

    Fuck it man. I'm done with you. Forget it.

    You didn't read, listen, or absorb a word that I said and never cared to answer my question.

    Jesus, no one was comparing Aminu to one of the 50 greatest players.

    This whole conversation with you is just dumb..

    Who would like to answer this simple, straightforward question, while also knowing I am in no way comparing Aminu to Pippen?

    Have a good day dviss1. The kid is playing in Beaverton this weekend. Figure eventually i'll get to shake your hand when you are an official. Thanks for taking care of the kids.

    I'll admit, when I go round and round, and it's obvious I'm not being listened to or someone didn't read what I wrote, it gets frustrating... My bad.

    But I never once compared Aminu to Pippen and you should've known that I was comparing their defensive roles. I said this multiple times and I wasn't listened to.

    Did you miss the “Aminu sucks” in a post on this thread?

    In 2017 playoffs, Kerr said his defensive strategy was to stop the non-stars like Aminu.

    I happen to not agree at all with that statement. It certainly isn't something i would post. Somebody saying "He Sucks" i would think is talking about his ability and not "Hate" of the man himself. I am not a fan of the player on the team the way he is being used. But in no way do i think anyone on here actually hates Aminu. Hate gets thrown around a little too easily these days.

    I havent read all these posts but I think theyd have to hope that Harkless is healthy, and has no lingering problems. He’s the only guy besides Aminu I think who “could” do it.

    It doesn't say anything about Aminu, but says everything about our roster. Across the league the most talented players on any given team are generally swings/wings. With Harkless out, Aminu is the only player who we could conceivably put on the other team's best player. It's not because Aminu is a great defender, it's because the only other guy who could theoretically match up with them is JAKE LAYMAN. Aminu is a versatile, but average, defender. There isn't a player in the league who is concerned about being defended by him.

    He's shooting like Andre Roberson.

    It doesn't help that he's also getting absolutely torched lately as well.

    Aminu is by far the most underrated player on the Blazers. He's our second best defender and, yes, our 3rd best player. Losing him would be a big mistake. Almost as big a mistake as it was to acquire Evan "Turner's Turn" Turner . "Turner's Turn" refers to the times that ET routinely decides it's simply his turn to shoot this time down the floor.
