    And a defenseless 'big', to boot. Pass.

    I actually think that's debatable.

    I used to agree, back when I thought we were getting Chandler instead of Afflalo in that Denver deal a few years back. Now I'd much rather have Chief.

    None of them will be available. Well maybe CJ Miles at best.

    Denver wanted two first rounders for him so we went the cheaper route.

    I'd trade CJ for Doncic (draft choice) for the chance to reset and be better in 2-3 years.
    Obviously, some fillers (Parsons, etc.) would have to be included to make trade work.

    Dame, SG, Doncic, Collins, Nurkic is looking really good in a few years time.

    I do not want to trade Dame.

    But one of the problems with building a team around him that will compete with the Warriors for a championship is.
    He is about the same age as the Warrior's star players. His career is on a similar time line as the superteam.

    I do not see a ring for Dame, anywhere.. Unless he can become part of a superteam.

    But I repeat, I do not want to trade Dame.

    He didn't. Their headlines tend to just include everyone mentioned in their article. The Blazers part was just about our Simons workout

    We definitely don't need a rookie who thinks he's going to lead the NBA in points and assists -- as a rookie.

    No, but I bet even you’re not mad trading places with a philly fan right about now. I hate this argument that because you’re drafting in the high lotto that your team automatically becomes sac. You’re team could also be Boston or Minnesota. Both of those teams look wayyy better than Portland.

    The Portland Process would be a nice era in Blazer History.

    Maybe, but he should already know the general targets.
    How does Minnesota look better? There are already reports of disfunction, they have an outdated coach their franchise player hates, and they’re paying a complimentary player the max.

    There will be no trade of significance. Expect improvement through organic growth.
