OrLanDoMaGic2K16 0 Report post Posted July 16, 2013 This guy's still in the league? Must be a locker room move. I mean thats a good way to look at it...but Beno was a good locker room guy too,good facilitator and a champion..but the dollar amount to keep him around was likely much higher...I wish we would have picked up A.J Slaughter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Murphy13 185 Report post Posted July 16, 2013 So, hypothetical trade scenario for if we want to end the tank and get competitive again while maintaining cap space for next offseason: Tobias Harris, Big Baby, trade exception, better of the two 2015 first rounders to Portland, in exchange for: LaMarcus Aldridge and Earl Watson in two separate deals. Aldridge wants out of Portland, and they can get better short term and long term with this trade, giving them a potential star at a position where all they have is Batum, and a playoff tested front court (replacement) player in Big Baby, plus a likely lotto pick in 2015 via philly's pick. Orlando runs: Nelson/Oladipo Oladipo/Harkless/AA Harkless/AA Aldridge/Nicholson/Oquinn Nik/Oquinn plus 2014 first rounder... Why or why not? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Portland would never do that lol If we want to tank we should just sign the freshly amnestied Mike Miller and play him 30 minutes every game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Murphy13 185 Report post Posted July 16, 2013 I wouldn't say they would never do that. LA made it public that he wants out, CHI is only offering Noah. What could they offer that's better than a vet + young talent + lotto pick? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Question is, do we really have enough Styrofoam peanuts to encase a 6'8" piece of glass on the bench? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

s1n1st3r12 27 Report post Posted July 16, 2013 With the potential of getting Ronnie Price as a 3rd string PG what is going to be the PG line up? Nelson, Moore, Price? I know it was an experiment in summer league to put VO in PG spot but I would much rather he was our starting SG. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
