    WTF? I said the same thing, technically after you, but before reading you, so it counts. Guess I'll rep you for your obvious genius.

    Probably won't happen, but which need are you talking about? Everyone seems to have a different opinion. Mine is a wing who can score in the paint and finish on the break. We need more easy baskets. My one question about him is......how are his handles? That is another need for our wing.

    I think a bench scoring wing is a bigger need than improving our starting SF position.
    Derozan is a slasher and that's great and all, but he has a higher usage rate than Lillard does. Nic fits so well with our starters because he ISN'T someone looking to score most times he touches the ball, and sometimes that's needed more than just 5 scorers. Derozan is a high usage scorer who seems to have learned a lot, maybe too much, from his time spent with Rudy Gay. I don't dislike him as a player. I just don't see a straight across swap of him and Batum being beneficial to our team. With the ball in Nic's hand, he's looking to kick to Damian, hit Rolo on the PnR, or swing out to Wesley. Derozan with the ball in his hands is looking for Derozan. I'd like that sort of guy off the bench, which is where I think our need is, not so much in the starting lineup with Damian, Aldridge, Wes and Rolo.

    A chucker that gets to the line, and shoots 44% from the field and over 40% from deep? Give me that chucker!

    It might be entertaining to see the other 3 players play keep away from kaman and martin, but that is about it. Martin is worse though... Kevin Martin is where offense goes to die in the NBA. Anyone who hated Mo Williams and calls for KMart is a freaking clown (not accusing you, but those who fit know who they are).

    The problem with Mo was that he was a SG in a PGs body with PG responsibilities. I'd take a bigger and better version of Mo any day off our bench right now.

    Don't understand why we'd want Chandler over Afflalo. Arron has been an elite shooter (though he's dipped this year). He seems like a much better player than Chandler.

    JV could be had.

    A ton of talk today. Sheridan is dropping woj-like rumors.

    Younger. More size. More versatile. Better contract situation. Wouldn't get in the way of Mccollums development. But mainly contract IMO. I know I wouldn't give up a first round pick for a two month rental. If olshey can get him without giving up a first, I'd prefer that to Chandler who will no doubt cost Portland that pick.
