So, ummmmm.... DeRozan?

conley/derozan backcourt

[Magic#1]

Give me Lance Stevenson if money is cheap and Vogel approves.

No thanks. Not a big fan of his since he left Indi and he is a bit of a headcase and I wouldn't want to give him any minutes that would be better given to Hezonja and Fournier.

If him and Vogel meet and Vogel signs off, I would be very, very tempted. If seemed to play well for Memphis and we need a guy who can score in the backcourt. His skills would help us and I don't think it would hinder Hezonja or AG's development like a Parsons or Barnes would.

Anyone want to bring back Moe Harkless?

Naw

And it never will. Thanks for the memories and never stop being Moe.

Thats a hell of a retool but pretty much forces the AG/Mario/EP trio to take a backseat for a couple of years. This lineup is job security for Rob. Abandon the developing of your young guys to have some 1st or even 2nd round success. Im down for that team but its going to cost some bucks to assemble that.

I brought it up because it appears most Blazer fans want him brought back more so then Crabbe.

[SOUL]

DeRozan/Ibaka/Vuc.. I hope you guys love long twos.

Derozan at 23 has almost identical per36 stats to Evan at 23. If fact, Evan is a way better shooter even compared to Derozan at 26. I say we pay Evan and let him develop. Forget Derozan. Maybe go after Evan Turner as a backup wing.

No thanks. He is a headcase and he would take minutes. So yes it would hurt Hezonja(who I think will play more SG this year) and Fournier. Plus I am not so sure he would even be a better scorer then either Hezonja or Fournier. We have back-court scoring in Founier and if we can get Mike Conley then we definitely do not need Stephenson. The money we spend on him would be better spent elsewhere.

Another effect of trading Oladipo should be discouraging other teams from trying to poach Evan. It's obvious that we're going to seek to retain him. So teams will realize that it's a waste of time to go after him. So I'll bet that his number is suppressed a bit compared to when we still had Victor at the same position. Then teams would have probably loaded up offers thinking that we might not match.

Before anyone replies that some team(s) will try to throw a huge number at Fornier just to make us commit our salary cap, I just want to say that we are not competitive targets around the league that other front offices are trying to outmaneuver! If Evan's salary number is huge, it will just be because that is the market for him at this point. I don't think that we are going to be the subject of gamesmanship over his services...

Thursday deadline to extend qualifying offers to Evan Fournier and Dewayne Deadmon

Thank god

I pray Rob doesn't bring in Parsons. AG or Mario needs to be the starting SF moving forward.

Derozan is a good player but I didn't like what I saw in the playoffs. Choking every other game is not a good trait for an All-Star demanding a max deal. Thank God we're passing. Just resign Evan or trade for Butler.

This guy knows basketball ^

It's easy to want Derozen because all of the sudden we have an 'all star'

Rob doesn't give max to many people. I like how he is diligent unlike some past GMs.

I hope the magic sign Acy to replace nicholson.
The Cookie Monster brings Energy,Defense and toughness every time he steps on the court.

I like Acy a lot. Rob wanted him last year but I don't know what happened.
