    I think we made a great draft but didn't make any moves in free agency. We could use another guard or an upgrade at forward and have some tradable players and the trade exception

    We have a Carmelo trade thread. The nba trade thread. Half a dozen other threads about moves we should make but...
    We need another trade thread because I say so and so there for I think it and so there for it's the truth.

    What tradable assets do we have to bring an upgrade at guard or forward?

    If you're proposing a trade with the Nets to get Crabbe back, we can't do that until December.

    Unless my sarcasm meter is too low, Crabbe plays for the Nets. Turner has a horible contract, and there is no reason to discuss the third guy. I assume you are joking, but there are actually some here who belive those guys have value

    Klay Thompson is starting to get in the trade rumor bracket. If Carmelo doesn't pan out I'm waiting on the CJ for Klay rumors to start up.

    Hey could you please try being positive every now and then? Your negative outlook on everything is really starting wear on people around here. Trust me, I've had people contact me that they are thinking of leaving S2 because of you...... not only that, I know some that won't even join because of your conduct.
    Try thinking of everybody else and this site for once and not just yourself. Thank you.

    First of all I WAS Thinking about all people on this site, most of which complain about too many threads of the same topic, merge this merge that, so My thoughts, unlike yours, were for the group and not just myself....

    Dude, do you really want to go there with me?
    My negative outlook on everything?
    Why are you trying to start shit with me again?
    I don't fight with gloves on, so if you wanna continue this, Lets go...
    I've got your number now....
    You are not funny to me, I get you are funny to most. I dropped our squabble in the midst of you continuing it, and proceed to take the high road and only speak to you about the Blazers, of which I thought we had moved on, but obviously not. Obviously you want to continue this thing because you have some fancy for me or something, but now you will reap what you sow..I got a couple suggestions/advice on how to deal with you.. I think I shall take one and run with it now...

    Good luck to you sir.

    We need to do SOMETHING. We traded Crabbe for nothing. We lost a lot of shooting. I would love to know what the plan is.

    Caution:
    There's about a 50/50 chance that any other trade we make is made to lose us another $5 mil to get us under the tax line. In this scenario, the trade is unlikely to be "exciting."

    I don't believe him and I are on any type of relationship to mess with each other.
    I think I've made it clear, all he has to do is let me know just once , but he never has, so All I can surmise is he is trying to make me eat my words... for some reason, continuing this stupid battle, but now I have something in the works. Just gonna take a little time to do the research, but i'm tired of his crap he gives me. HE should know by now, I don't care for his jokes, so why try to continue to poke at me? We aren't friends. I've never met him and frankly want nothing to do with him.
    I've reached out to try to be cool, but him and a couple friends tried to make me look like an ass for it.

    In the mean time, Ill check one of the other trade threads that we have on the first page here.... see if there is any new news there.

    You know, there's a really easy way to have "nothing to do with him."

    As long as you continue to read his posts, you have nobody to blame but yourself when they irritate you.

    I get what your saying, but I have a much better idea. I like fighting fire with fire.. not running away and hiding. ;)

    Ignoring is not hiding. When a chihuahua nips at my heels, though I could easily flatten it, I prefer to simply decide that it's not worth my attention.

    Great analogy... except this chihuahua followed me home and is hanging out now. wanting to force me to pay attention to it. I dismissed for a bit but now its time to call the dog catcher.

    Your choice and perspective, of course, but I firmly believe you're giving him much too much power over you.
