    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I preferred being bored to this. If this goes through, Olshey has given up on playing defense--let Nurkic play defense until he fouls out and otherwise try to outshoot the other team.

    Oh well, the Blazers weren't winning the title anyway. Shootouts are, at least, a fun way to lose.

    The could do a dog's shock collar around his balls and zap him with a remote. Just trying to think outside the box a little.

    If this goes through ther are going to be a lot of high scoring games this year. No defence maybe but some 136 to 135 games. Win some lose some!

    So sounds like this trade is def going down between Knicks/Rockets. Whether Blazers are that third team remains to be seen. For the record, i wouldnt do Hark/Meyers for Anderson (even with a pick attached) AND i fucking hate Meyers (as a bball player)

    It not saying Anderson will be starting Stotts might bring him off the bench. Turner might be starting at SF and bringing Aminu off the bench.

    Seriously, we have so many bad contracts and are considering trading one that is actually decent for another terrible deal?

    It's going to be very difficult to get out of this mess. At least with Anderson he can shoot and would kind of fit.

    Defense optional for the foreseeable future ... Ya know, just like normal.

    I can't disagree with that. But Harkless isn't a whole lot better. I like 3 ball handlers on the floor. So I guess we start ET at SF. Not a bad option actually if we had Anderson at PF spreading the floor.

    From what the guy tight with the Nets indicated, (posted earlier) Portland wasn't high on getting Anderson and would rather have other pieces. If it is RA, they want a pick to go with it.

    FWIW.

    I hate that reasoning. If you don't like a player, how is a draft pick going to change anything unless it is a unprotected high lottery pick? Same reason I thought it was ridiculous to think we would try to dump one of our bad contracts by adding a simple draft pick.
    Either you want the player and his contract or you don't. A draft pick should not change things, unless we are talking about a one year deal.....which we are not.

    I agree.....but they are trying to get rid of some other contracts they want as well so if they can pick up a future asset for their trouble, I'm guessing that is what they are thinking.
