Lillard makes for an intriguing trade asset--discuss

IF you trade him you don't do it until draft night.

You don't trade him unless you have a replacement - Fultz/Ball/Smith.

 

I don't think people WANT to trade Dame or CJ. However, some people think that it is going to be very difficult to get very far when both of those players that most of us really like, are so poor defensively and both undersized. Also, neither of them is that much of a play-maker. Since both of them struggle with many of the same things and would also bring back the most for either of their services in a trade, that would seem like a logical place to at least examine.

No hate.

 

No hate. All logic.

 

When you have a sprang ankle you don't get any lift in your shot. Dame shots been coming up short alot lately. 2 things that can be he is tire or he not getting know lift. So his injuries has alots to do why his shot been off. Yes sometimes he had took bad shots that doesn't help neither.

 

Alright man. Whatever you say. Your "never trade Dame" attitude is a bit shortsighted in my opinion and you defend it to the death, my bad for poking the the bear. Apparently that makes me smug, lame and I shit on the team. For the record, I don't wanna trade him either, but speaking the truth about someone isn't slander.

 

You're missing the point. We already have his replacement

 

Ya because assists makes people better

 

No it's not

 

Yeah but like I said in my last post, last year the "next rookie of the year" was Kris Dunn. I really don't want to trade Dame for someone who is not a sure thing. Fultz can't guard pac 12 player how he he going to guard an NBA PG? You think if he was that great the Huskies would be at least mediocre, instead of pathetic.

Ball I really like. He seems to have the intangibles. But still at this point he could be a flop too.

Smith I have not seen play.

 

Lillard is shoot-first, not pass-first, as we often see early in the shot clock. When he missed some games this season, McCollum was better than him and the team was better.

 

And how many times a game does he shoot too quickly? 3-4?
How many possessions are there in a game?

 

This brings two words to mind: "bull" and "shit".

Dame's making 5.8 assists per 36 minutes this year.

CJ is at 3.7 assists per 36 minutes.

I would trade Dame for very few players in the league but those trades just aren't possible. No you just wont admit it. Saying you tried to get me to go off is a bit retarded, like you were looking for issues. That comes off as smug and pure lame. Trying to get somebody going. Yeah that's real tight. Real dope thing to do in life just for kicks. I spoke the truth. I said what he was bad in. What more do you want

 

Yeah it is. He made CJ better, plumlee better. Can't make the others better because they simply aren't good shooters. Aminu isn't making wide open threes, Harkless isn't, Crabbe is inconsistent. It's the talent the two are surrounded with

 

The assist argument is comical.

Who makes their team better, the one who starts the offense and gets everyone involved leading to the defense being off balanced, or the guy who dominates the ball and passes to guys at the end of the clock?

The last guy would have more assists

 

Ok, fanboy

 

That's all you got? legit response
