    I have a feeling the majority of the GMs would not agree with you whatsoever.

    Be honest: After you watched Jake Layman's debut against the Warriors, did you think he was going to be the next Klay Thompson?

    So Alec Burks had 28/8 in 31 minutes last night. Is he better than CJ now?

    He'll win us a couple games on this big road trip and the haters will go back to wherever they were hiding during Game 7 against Denver last spring.

    Not a better player.

    But a strong argument can be had that Burks is better value on his contract. Burks makes <10% of what CJ does - while being at least 50% of the player.

    I have problems with the “Value to Contract” argument. CJ didn’t do anything wrong Signing a contract that was offered him. He loves it here. Wants to play for this team and these fans. His value is more than a bargaining chip for what his contract is.

    I can pretty much guarantee that if CJ McCollum decided he no longer wanted to be on the Blazers and asked to be traded there would be multiple teams in line to get him. It would be huge news across the league and there would be little talk about value to contact issues.

    Paschall may not be a "star", but I'd bet he is more than just a product of circumstances.

    I have to disagree. It is very rare that contract issues don't play a big role in trades. That is the way the league wants it.
