If the Lakers don’t win the 2021 Title ... Should we Discount their 2020 Title?

[zookman65]

If your next coin flip comes up heads do you discount the previous coin flip if it was tails? Illogical thread alert...

Trash LeBron all you want but it becomes personal when you start going after Mickey. Better cut that **** out.

Valade how do you feel about that Simmons kid? I've seen like 3 Blazers game and everytime I think “this kid is a baller”

I think he will definitely develop into a good player. At this point he sometimes takes ill-advised shots that only the top level guys should take. Definitely works hard and hustles.

I know Portland is very high on him and did not include him in any trade proposals, but I am kind of nervous that it's another case of Portland falling in love with someone and drastically over rating their ability (as we are prone to do).

He’s more of a PG/SG right? Because I feel like the Blazers have a history of being way too deep at those positions. I would capitalize on his rising stock and put him up to get a star 3/4 TBH.

I don't think he'd garner a star 3/4, and we just brought in Covington and Derrick Jones. We do have a "problem" of too much depth at the guards between Lillard, CJ, Trent, and Simons. But that's a good problem to have.

I’m not saying him alone. But like if it took Simons, CJ, one of Cov/Jones for an all star 3/4 and filler....would you do it?

I don’t think there is anyone meeting the criteria where a trade can get done. Like anyone you could get would be someone you could just trade CJ straight up for, and all the other 3/4 all stars the blazers prob don’t have enough for a trade. Siakim might be the only guy I can think of that might be a fair trade for CJ/Simmons/Cov but they already are deep and PG’s too

Fair for who? Blazers getting waxed in that deal.

I wouldn't add in Simmons and Covington. CJ for Siakam straight up seems about as far as I'd be willing to go.
