Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 Yes. What do u think of Jamaal Franklin. I liked him in the draft. Pretty sure he's not valued as high enough of a return for afflalo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ibn Battuta 127 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 I liked him in the draft. Pretty sure he's not valued as high enough of a return for afflalo. I'd imagine he'd be part of any deal. I want to see if he gets more PT though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Janders 102 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 Portland trades: 2015 1st round pick (2014 is owed to Charlotte) CJ McCollum Wesley Matthews Meyers Leonard Orlando trades: Arron Afflalo Kyle O'Quinn Doron Lamb Our backcourt of the future would become Oladipo/McCollum, Wesley Matthews is a decent veteran (27 years old, so not very old either), and Leonard would take O'Quinn's place and probably has much better potential than Kyle anyway. Plus another pick which is always good. I think Portland would be the type of team that would want Afflalo for their playoff push this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fultz4thewin 2,464 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 I'm trying to figure out a way that afflalo ends up on the Knicks for shumpert and hardaway jr but the trade isn't there. At least not one that makes sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Portland can't trade their 2015 pick right now since they already traded their 2014 pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Janders 102 Report post Posted December 6, 2013 Portland can't trade their 2015 pick right now since they already traded their 2014 pick. Ah I forgot about that rule. they don't really own many picks in the coming years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bauncey Chillups 288 Report post Posted December 7, 2013 Wesley Matthews is playing almost as well as Afflalo is right now and Portland won't do anything to rock the boat given that they're number 1 in the west. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Soul Bro 1,419 Report post Posted December 8, 2013 You guys like apples? How about these apples? http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=l3xakdh Orlando receives McCollum and Robinson Houston receives Harkless, Baby and O'Quinn Portland receives Moore and Asik Why? Houston gets a solid PF/C in Baby and good young prospects in Hark and O'Quinn. Portland gets the center they want in Asik. Orlando continues their rebuilding project with young prospects and a salary dump. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
