    Why would I know what 28 teams are willing to part with? I do know that CJ, a second year player who hasn't shown any growth from his rookie year, and a late 1st round pick are not going to get you Anthony Davis.

    Make them up. Bet you couldn’t come up with five that are objectively (important word considering your take on CJ) superior, and also make sense from a financial, and technical (team) point of view.

    Since I doubt we will get AD I'd seriously consider Meyers for Randle and Mo for Mirotic

    So if we traded for him he would have to turn down 1 extra year and 50ish mil more money to leave correct? That’s some cheddar, and Cali has one of the highest state income taxes. Hmmm, fuck it, trade the house for him.

    Why would I waste my time with that? I have no interest in making up hypothetical trade scenarios on the internet, I'll leave that to you professionals. B-Roy just gave one that's clearly better and you didn't think it was...

    Barf. Only think enticing there is the draft pick.

    Then keep your two cents to yourself. It’s easy to criticize. Anyone can do it.

    And no, that deal is not better. Not by any objective measure.

    Wut?
    I can share my opinion, fuck you.
    You're right about one thing, it is easy to criticize. It's easy to criticize the general manager when your wild fantasies don't come true. Anyone can do it.

    And that deal is better. By every objective measure.

    AD will go where he wants to go. And that isn't Portland.

    Whoa there, everyone has a right to express their opinion as long as it's within the rules as laid out by Sly.
