Have we traded our 26 year old all NBA 2nd team SG who hasn't even hit his prime, for the 33 year old PG who has never won a damn thing and doesn't want to be here, yet?

I'm not sure there's a contender that can outbid the Celtics for Lillard. Brown plus our picks destroys anything that any other contending team can offer.

Questions is, does Brad even want to pull the trigger...

Gonna nickel and dime him even though won't realistically help us and might make the whole thing fall apart


Lmfao was the funniest night ever. Nothing will ever beat it

yeah it's so funny watching the whole country turn to **** because just enough morons in PA, WI, and MI decided they liked having an orange hateful dumbass in charge to ruin everything.

If I am Portland I am sending him to whoever offers the most draft picks, and I am not doing it for less than three firsts plus a couple of swaps.

If they go the “Star player” return, they want to be pretty sure Henderson is something special, because they will probably not be at the bottom of the West.

Why does Portland want Brown who's gonna bail in a year?

Worried about the Spurs going after Grant. He'd be a great fit there and they have enough space to do a Bruce Brown type of deal that the C's couldn't match.

These convos never end well so let’s just keep them out of this thread please. Save the fireworks for our backyards and waterways…

The third team can worry about that.

I think you're missing the point of what the poster was trying to say.

Kenyon Martin Jr going to the clips for 2 lousy 2nd round picks. He only makes 2 mil.

I just have this image of Brad furiously working out Dalando Banton or whatever his name is while all these signings and trades go down.

That's exactly the type of move you accumulate 2nds for. I would've even given 3 of them. He's basically a proven solid rotation guy with remaining upside for 2 million bucks, come on Brad!

This is exactly the approach they should take. Anything else would be dereliction, and just flat out stupid.
