    Denver should trade Wilson Chandler to DAL.

    We wouldn't beat them as is, they'd be scary good with Wilson. West just keeps getting stronger.

    The Western Conference arms race. If you aren't acquiring more nukes your falling out of the playoffs. Must. Trade. More. Assets.

    Not so sure that the Rockets wouldn't beat Portland.

    Why do you have to bring race into everything?

    Nothing to worry about.

    He adds depth, which is something the Blazers need. Batum has been nicked up and the wrist injury is affecting his play. Chandler gives them the option to rest or reduce Batum's minutes to aid recovery and also someone to plug in when Batum is ineffective or too passive. A competition for minutes could light his inconsistent fire.

    This should help them avoid a late-season swoon and be more dangerous in the post-season.

    Do it Nuggs, blow up your roster.

    Lawson would be awesome for the rockets.

    He's one of those players I like to call early Gerald green. Stupid athleticism, poor IQ.

    speaking of t rob, I don't get why blazers fans like him so much.

    When he played for us I just saw him as a $5mill pain in the ass. Is cfans really that cynical?
