I wonder if other fans value our stars as much as we value their semi stars


If we are talking about Batum, look at what was offered for him in a sign and trade he Blazers turned it down.

The Timberwolves have offered as many as three future first-round draft picks and even have dangled small forward Derrick Williams, the No. 2 pick in the 2011 draft.

Portland would receive shooting guard Kyle Korver from Chicago and two future first-round draft picks from Minnesota, according to the source. The Bulls would acquire a second-round pick from the Timberwolves, the source said.

Is that good value? Id say yuck to that.

I mean in general though over the last several years people will talk about these decent players like josh smith and act like our entire team couldn't bring him over than at the same time talk about how the Warriors laugh at a Curry for Rondo swap


two to three 1st round draft picks got turned down. 


Green and a draft pick isn't going to work.

  2-3 draft picks that won't be in the lottery isn't really a king's ransom. They might be similar to the Celts picks this year, so something like Sully, Melo and next year's pick for a Batum.

Doubt they go for it.



The contract they gave out and the rumored trade they turned down looks like they value him as a cornerstone towards the future.
