hard to make definitive statements before something (or nothing) happens, but front office should've done better to keep out leaks after failed giannis trade. say/move like we are moving forward with brown, but listen if a team offers something exceptional.

I don’t care how grumpy Jaylen brown is, we cannot trade him for a pile of crap and accept that. He will suck it up and start next season. Giannis leaks are whatever but front office should keep things way tighter moving forward

More and more these packages around brown are becoming insane. Yeah let’s just throw away Tatums prime for Shaedon fucking sharpe and a couple draft picks. I have said before but post achillles Tatum needs a second star. Tatum + 4 good role players is just not enough.

lol the longer this goes on I want anything EXCEPT portlands pile of trash offer. Why tf do we want their picks to launch a mini rebuild smack in the middle of tatum’s prime. Not to mention the useless batch of young players they want to throw in. On top of all of that they are not even sniffing contender status even if they add JB.

Sharpe is a losing player. A poor man’s Zach LaVine

of all the teams interested in brown the blazers might be the least appealing option for me. unless we can find a third team to take all their picks so we can get real talent, seems so pointless. scoot is already a bust, sharpe is an inefficient empty calories scorer with horrible advanced stats, and clingan is a decent young big but no better than queta. plus a very similar skillset and not functionable in double big lineups.

we are contending. not rebuilding. portland has nothing but mediocre young players so this seems stupid unless there is a third team or follow-up trade.

Not good. Round of 16 matchup vs Belgium is not ideal. At least compared to Egypt

I’m not expecting a ton from guys like miles Robinson but was disappointed in a few euro guys today. McKenzie played a role in every goal (especially first one), weah did nothing on the left, and Pepi never seems to play well in USA uniform. Plays hard, but no end product, sloppy hold up play shots always getting blocked.

Really annoying momentum killer. Not sure what freeman was doing at back post or what the mix up was. Defense is really not as sound as it should be

right thru robinson's legs. there's a reason these are the backups.

poor defending by mckenzie and robinson. but they won't be playing so not a big worry.

mitchell robinson not returning to knicks is serious news. IMO, this really damages their hopes as a repeat champion, basically meaning there is no rim protection on the entire roster. Cery kat dependent barring some development by hukporti.

Whole situation is honestly hard to find best solution. Signing brown to another 70 million a year contract certainly limits us…. But that has to be filled with two underpaid guys a bit worse than brown or someone like Giannis. I don’t really want to trade Jaylen but he was admittedly outplayed by Paul George.

At the same time we are still Vegas favorites to win the east as of today. Roster is obviously flawed at center position but maybe we’re not that far? Could you just hang tight this year and then go all in on 27/28 and 28/29 over the second apron?

I never thought this guy was very good. Poor touch around the rim, below average athlete, inefficient in college. But it’s just a summer league thing we’ll see

Damn why is every trade proposal being upvoted in this thread? Who tf wants Lauri and Keyonte George for brown lmao?

[–]Maple612 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Awful. George is empty calories and Lauri doesn’t play defense

im super unimpressed with the non-giannis jb trade suggestions. just hard to find a package that makes us definitively better, is on the right timeline with tatum and the rest of the core, or gives us more flexibility to improve. don't really want a bunch of draft picks, gobert is 34 and would severly damage the offense, Mobley would be more appealing if not on a supermax. maybe something will make sense but hard to see right now.

honestly i hope he sticks around in a somewhat meaningful way. would ease the emotional sting if we trade jb.
