That's a good question. Will be interested in the replies.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to orangello again.

My point exactly. I really liked what I saw out of Lillard last night but, what if we had traded Kanter? He got about 100 times better over the offseason. What about Burks? He is looking as delicious (no homo) as ever. I know that Hayward and Favors were not options.

Portland would have wanted a young guy plus a pick and might have even asked for a salary dump.

Just trying to keep it real around here.

Spread that rep quickly.

Who, out of our young four, would you trade combined with the GS pick to get Lillard?

Well, I'm talking more about how his stock rose than I am about us making a trade. In any case, I'd trade Burks, the GSW pick and anything not named Favors, Kanter and Hayward.

Interesting. That surprises me.

In fairness, I'd consider Hayward or Burks, but not sure. It may be more prudent to keep them, the GS pick, and pick up a Bledsoe in FA.

 

[orangello]

Can someone please post Burks and Lillards per 36 minute averages?

 

[orangello]

This is more of what I was thinking as well. It is too early to give up on Burks or Hayward for Lillard who so far has looked good but we are still talking about preseason and Lillard is getting all the chances possible to succeed.

What kind of money are you offering to bring in Bledsoe?

There's still too many things to consider, but just on the surface, I'd be thinking 3/23.5

I think that is a little high but it is fair. I would like to see it closer to the 3/19 range. I would guess that the Clippers would match that though.

And +10 in a loss.

Coming off a 10 pt, 8 reb performance in 17 min the prior game. But he's not that good.
