    This.

    If Roy struggled with having Greg and Dre in the lineup with him, how will he perform with yet another player that wants lots of touches? Hopefully, he would figure it out, but if he doesn't, that's a mess.

    Absolutely! I'd be in favor of taking a half-step back this year, even, if it helped us next year and/or farther down the road.

    If this team makes the playoffs it will be a minor miracle, and I don't see how Blazers fans could be upset with the team or organization if we fail to make the playoffs this year.

    I would be MORE upset if we make a trade to make a push for the rest of the year (at the expense of part of the future) when there's almost no deal out there that will drag us to contention this year.
