    Again, if they move Batum for 38 year old Steve Nash I will flip.

    agreed. I'd like seeing nash play here. I think it's extremely short sighted and just stupid to make a 1 year push and give up your best future asset for it.

    It looks bad, but what if we got Phoenix's protect first rounder? What if we trade Crawford to Minny for Utah's first rounder and Ridnour?

    IF we got an unprotected or lightly protected pick from Phoenix, then fine. IF we get Utah's unprotected pick from Minny then fine. However if we trade Batum for Nash then fuck the Blazers. If we trade Crawchuck's sorta expiring for Ridnour's non expiring then fuck the Blazers

    Dont get your panties in a bunch. No way we trade a young potential stud like Batum for Nash, even though he is a current All Star. We all know Nash only has 2-3 good years left. Batum has 10+ good years.

    Yes, the Blazers have never traded away a young stud for an aging vet.

    Come on, get Rondo!

    We need to rebuild but if we landed Rajon it would make that process quicker.

    Nash is a stopgap PG due to his age.

    This is as obvious as the Faried/Smith pick. :hairout:

    Why? He's an undersized PF who can't play SF or C.

    By making that move you either piss him off even more by bringing him off the bench (on his hefty salary) or you play LaMarcus out of position at Center.

    We need help at PG. Desperately.

    They should go Batum/Felton/Pick for Rondo.

    Then G. Wallace/Matthews/change for Josh Smith.

    PG - Rondo
    SG- Crawford/Williams
    SF - Josh Smith
    PF - LA
    C - Who gives a fuck

    Yeah you're probably right, but I really think LMA can play center and would do well there.
