All you guys talking about Lopez and getting an athletic big to catch alley oops can't see the forest for the trees: WHAMS on the 2nd team all defense center. Lest we forget the dunk on Andre Drummond? Fropez dunks when he needs to. You cats saying you want a center who dunks more but cannot hit a shot outside of 5 feet are trippin'... Watch the Dunk on Asik @ :57. You know... they guy everyone in here was clamoring for INSTEAD of Fropez...
Dude... How about mentioning who we would get for Batum? Just shipping him is stupid IMHO. ESPECIALLY for a bench player...
Yeah, you would need to get at least Tony Snell back too and hope he could develop into a starting SF like next year.
You're simply wrong about this. Fropez dunks out on quality defensive centers. His BEST work has been out of the pick and roll. So much so we named it the Nick and Rolo. What made Joakim Noah a complete center? That's right his mid range jumper. Even Shaq had a good shot from 10 feet in.
idk who we'd get. We wouldn't get Taj though. It' be a trade centered around trading Nic to Chicago, Taj to a random team and we chose what we recieve from both
Its not about dunking on people, it's about having a wide range of motion above the rim to make it easier on the ball handler on the pick n roll, and harder on the defense. With Rolo if they cut off the pocket pass, then the whole pick n roll is ineffective. And hell, I couldve dunked on Bogut on that play.
1.) They're looking to change it 2.) If they pull that cap you just put in Meyers Everybody loved T-Rob. All he did was dunk, rebound, and brick free throws...
oh gotcha. I wold think we could flip those guys for something good. It'd just have to be better deal then anything we could get by trading Batum straight up
I wonder if a three way would be possible to do a "super deal" Blazers In: Joakim Noah, Doug McDermott Out: Nic Batum Bulls In: Nic Batum, Nikola Pekovic, #36 Out:Joakim Noah, Doug McDermott, Taj Gibson Wolves In: Taj Gibson Out: Nikola Pekovic, #36
I'd like that trade if Noah's healthy. Fans on the Bulls board have said he has no cartilage left in his knees, which after BRoy I don't want to deal with again I'll come up with my own supertrade soon haha
If Noah dons the Scarlet and Black, I'll actively root against them until he's gone. Unless they play the L*kers or the Cavs.
Nope. While I'm not a fan of a large number of players, there are only a handful who I dislike strongly enough to not only withdraw my support for, but also to actively root against the Blazers. Bry*ant, James, Noah, Felton, Anthony, J.R. Smith, Andersen, Hard-on, Turkoglu, Love... Okay, maybe two handfuls.
