    I've always loved Crash's game. He brings it every night and attacks every possession like it's his last.

    Having a guy like that can only help this team.

    I know, right? Cause everyone knows it's all about offense, and defense doesn't win championships.

    The big question, to me, is... would the Blazers actually be willing to trade Wallace to a team they will be fighting for a playoff spot?

    No homo

    And theres really no point in pursuing more SFs. At this point I'd rather see morris play the 3 than bud.

    I'd trade Martin for him, they need a shooting guard

    They've been polaying Batum at SG (they dont have one at all)

    And I'd add if we really do want Gasol, Wallace and Scola is a much better deal for the lakers than Martin and Scola, because the Lakers dont need a sg, but a quality defensive small forward...different story.

    Kaman's who I'm hoping for. Add him to that lineup and now you're talking.

    He's a straight downgrade from Parsons on both ends of the floor.

    The Blazers are loaded at the guard and wing positions with vets and drafted players who can't get minutes. Especially at SG. Batum is playing SG because they're not benching Wallace so Batum can start.

    Wallace has no conscience, Parsons only takes shots that are good. When you're a good offensive team, you can't have someone like Wallace.

    Wallace may not be a great shooter but not even close to being a chucker, like you're describing him to be.

    I think you have Wallace confused for another player. Wallace doesn't shoot much. He's a slasher and unlike Parsons is able to finish. That's why he's so efficient on offense.

    WTF are you even saying?

    Wallace shoots 484% from the field. How on earth can you say he has no conscience? Do you realize how efficient that is?

    He is averaging less attempts per game than any of Lowry, Martin or Scola. Therefore, I don't think his style would get in the way of our offense. I don't know who gave you the idea that he is a chucker, but it is simply not true. Wallace only takes on average three more shots over Parsons per game, yet is infinitely more efficient. Seems to me Wallace only takes shots that are good.

    Perhaps you confused him with Stephen Jackson? Jackson takes the same amount of shots as Wallace off the bench shooting 357%.

    Wallace has proven to be an elite defensive player, one of the top rebounding threes in the league, he has shown good passing ability and is a highly efficient player. I don't see how your statement makes any sense at all.
