    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I would, and then I'd trade Curry for Lillard plus Aminu, and then I'd trade Klay for McCollum and Leonard and then I'd trade Kevin Durant for Moe Harkless, Evan Turner and Pat Connaughton and then I'd trade Draymond Green for Zach Collins and Caleb Swanigan. Finally, I'd trade Zaza Pachulia for Jusuf Nurkic.

    That would leave us a tidy profit of Nick Young and Omri Casspi to give us some shooters off the bench.

    Nurk is better than Towns. Either that I missed the game where Towns went off for 28/20/8/6.

    Ikr... This forum is full of delusional people.




    Nurk is obviously way better than Towns. "On the same level" ? Pfft. Get outta there.

    Nurk is a better rebounder, passer, shot blocker, gets more steals...

    Dame & CJ are both better. Butler's defense is better but offensive talent is me valuable individually. Individual players can control and carry on offense and draw attention away from others giving them easier opportunities, while defense is much more of a team oriented aspect.

    KAT is way more efficient and not missing games. Way more efficient with a 3pt shot. A year younger too.

    At the heart of this question:
    1. Are the Wolves better than the Blazers right now?
    2. Where do you see them in a couple of years?

    Right now I think the Blazers are better. Better defined roles, more experience playing together, and frankly a culture and coaching staff that's proven a lot more. And in a league where three point shooting is becoming more important Wiggins, Towns and Butler are okayyyyy (none of them shot that much better than Mo Harkless last year), Dame and CJ have a massive edge.

    I've drunk a giant gulp of Nurk and Swanigan Kool-Aid, so I'm actually more optimistic about the future as well.
