    Neil does have a relationship with Demps and made his only big trade to date in his career with him. Hopefully Dell does us a solid after we let his team steamroll us last year in the playoffs.

    I sure do...and he's stated as much...he has his own team..his own brand...he's stated on record he's not a ring chaser and wants to make his team the draw. I don't think AD will get traded to Portland anyway....never did. I don't think playing on Lebron's team is everybody's cup of tea

    Or we trade for AD, he and Dame convince LeBron to come here. We draft Lebron James Jr in 2024. We win 10 straight championships.

    If they take JR off our hands that would offset the downside....

    "Listen, would Anthony have been a great acquisition, of course. We'd did our due diligence in respect to looking into the possibility of trading for him. New Orleans wouldn't give up a 1st with Davis, so no deal."

    Well Id agree with you. I just dont think anything all that specials going to happen for Portland in all of this. Least we got Dame though he’s fun to watch.

    The Lakers are essentially the Wolves, but with LBJ. What I'm trying to say is, they don't have many good trade pieces to make something work. Basically Towns/Wiggins = Kuzma/Ingram? Yes, KAT > Kuz, but broadly speaking those two groupings are equally crap...and they represent each team's most valuable assets.

    Lebron is looking old. Dragging broke ass teams to the playoffs really has taken it's toll.

    I just hope the Pels wait for the better offer and deal him to Boston in the East. As far as I’m concerned a Lakers loss is a Blazers win.

    Plus if they miss on Davis who are they getting? Kawhi looks like if he’s playing in LA it’s gonna be for the Clippers. What does that leave Lebron? Kemba Walker lol? God I hope that happens.

    A couple of sites I've never heard of are reporting that Blake Griffin has also privately asked to be traded.

    He's more healthy than it looks. Played 75 games last two seasons. He just gets hurt a lot during games and seems kinda brittle. Prolly cuz he's such a freak of nature. But I agree with the general sentiment of being aware of his health. We should all be as Blazer fans.

    Also I remember reading somewhere that the Pelicans don't really have a dedicated bball medical staff and they use the Saints'??? Seemed absolutely ridiculous to me in the current NBA.

    This is more of a reality for us, if true.

    The recent Medical staff has done really, really well! I mean besides Moe I guess... The Blazers have done a good job of being healthy the last couple years though.

    I don’t feel like going through 10 pages of posts, but I’m assuming it’s been discussed that Lillard has talked openly about wanting to play with Davis before, correct?
