“This is why I hate being in Portland,’’ Aldridge said during the last week of the season. “You can’t do anything.’’
According to the report, Aldridge would not only welcome a trade from the Blazers, but he hopes for one, believing the city is too boring and small

Trade Asik + T.Jones + T. Robinson for LMA.

Did you read the article in question?
http://www.oregonlive.com/beavers/index ... out_sports

The reason why he said that is because the reporter was harassing him over and over again with the same question?

"Are you happy? You're staying or not? Why did you not re up your sponsorship deals this year? Why are you cancelling a lease on one of your condos? Are you trying to make a clean break from the city?"

He asked the question multiple times, he dug way into Aldridge's personal business. That's why Alrirge had his response. He's a big enough fish in the town where everything he does is up for judgement by the public.

Honestly, I just thought the reporter was an ass to Alrdige until he got a quote.

That rumor was proven false right after it came.

Anyways hate the idea because we fix one problem and create another. If by some miracle we get Aldridge I rather give up Parsons

so the quote about him hating being in Portland is not a real quote?

First of all - boo for using Trade Machine instead of Trade Checker.

Secondly, if we pulled off that trade, we would still have cap space for Dwight Howard. He would HAVE to be completely enticed to come to Houston to team up with Harden and Aldridge, with good role players in Parsons and Lin.

Sorry dream. I actually did use TC first but then checked it with TM since it has the salary totals.

You forgot the DPOY Bev, Terrence Jones, and #BeWell.

He included Terrence in his original trade proposal. I would hope they would be able to include Royce White in the deal to get him off our books, even if it means including a future 1st. If we could then round out the roster with people like Jose Calderon and Tony Allen, I think we are favorites in the West.

Would the Rockets be willing to include the Raptors pick?

We gave it to OKC for Harden

Gotcha. I don't see Jones as necessary to make that trade work unless he was for salary matching, but didn't exactly read the original trade (that time), per se .

Man, getting Calderon for next year would be awesome and a half.

Portland isn't going to trade aldridge. So let's stop speculating.
