    We need a consolidation trade but could be simply trading a rotation big for a backup SG. We need to be able to sit both Dame at CJ at the same time

    Don't we have plenty of back up SG's? (i.e Crabbe and Turner) or did you mean back up PG?

    We need 15 players and we need depth. How does a consolidation trade fit into that?

    What makes you guys so sold on Harkless? Other than he's been in a Blazers uniform for a couple years now.

    Umm... because he was actually a reason we did good in the 2nd half? I don't know, watching the games? I mean, these are all things you could have seen.... We don't need to help you out with -everything-.

    Come on he was the catylist to our success last year! If he steadies out his jumper like aminu has since becoming a blazer watch out cause he's already our best athlete his rebounding and defense are on an elite level oh and did I mention he's fucking 23! A good 4 years from his peak there really isn't a reason not to be excited about the kid.

    Lemme guess, by Sportrageous? Or the Patent Herald? Or another fake BS sight where the writer passes off his suggestion as a "rumor"?

    Crabbe, Harkless, Plumlee, and two future 1sts would be the only possible middle ground.

    A couple years???

    You're just not trying hard enough.
    • His jump shot is below average
    • His handle is suspect at best
    • His motor is inconsistent
    • He disappears on the court at times
    • He's somewhat of a 3/4 tweener
    If you make an effort, you can easily find a reason to not be excited about the guy.

    I prefer to ignore those reasons and be excited about him anyway.

    Yes. He's been here multiple years (according to dog years).

    Couple of years? This is his second season as a Blazer...

    And there I was thinking you actually watched Blazer basketball.

    He is also the player everyone is raving about how much he improved so.... these may be weaknesses that have diminished greatly

    I am excited about him because he seems like a gamer. Some people seem to shine when the chips are on the table, others - not so much. That kid seems to have this quality in him. Also, if you are not excited about that, you are harkless. How can you be so harkless?
