Travis Outlaw?

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Martell Webster is NOT possible and is NOT going to be a Cav. Portland loves the guy and just signed him to a 3-year extension. It's pretty obvious Outlaw is the possible odd guy out in Portland, especially once Webster returns because Batum may be good enough as a backup.
 
Outlaw is not a 2/3. He is a 3/4. You try to play him out of position at the 2, and we would get massively abused. Stupid idea.

LeBron could easily drop down and play the two. That said I don't believe in switching the best player in the worlds position even though it would probably make us better.

THANK YOU....THIS GUY JUST DOESN'T UNDERSTAND

M W ISN'T POSSIBLE
 
Outlaw would be great, nothing like a Redd, or a Vince or a J-Rich, but its possible he could develop into a scorer like that.

Hes much better than anything we got right now at that kinda spot. But hed have to play the 3, moving LeBron to the 2, which LeBron would LOVE by tha way. Hes apparently always told people he wants to be known as a guard. And it wouldnt affect his game at all.

But no way Id give Wally up for him.
 
Well moving LBJ to guard would mean that he would basically be Magic. The same height, same ability's only Magic's teams were a hell of a lot better than LBJ's. I would give up Wally if we could get the trade done today. I think that way we could get our chemistry down better.

well the salaries don't match up to give up wally & they wouldn't want anything from us? also i doubt they are looking for cap space so a 3-way trade
 
First, Outlaw would be a bad fit. He can't play SG, and I wouldn't want to move LeBron to the 2 because it'd wear him out on the defensive end trying to keep up with the quick guards like AI or Wade, or even running around chasing Rip.

Second, we have nothing of interest to Portland. The only move they want to make right now is trade away some of their young players not named Roy, Rudy, Oden, or Aldridge to get a proven all-star at either PG or SF. Since we aren't trading them Mo or LeBron, there's no reason for them to trade with us.

Outlaw is a bad fit and an unreasonable trade. There's no reason for this thread.

You claimed in another post that LBJ hates the idea of being a quasi 4, despite how much he enjoyed that position in the Olympics, now you come out saying that LBJ wants to be a 2 guard. For the love of God, get out of your delusional fantasy land where you talk with LBJ and his entourage.

Keep your stupid ideas, and your stupid lies to yourself.
 
Maybe with Fernandez there, they may be willing to trade Webster and Frye for Eric and our 1st round pick. I know they like Webster, but I could see a scenario where they'd do that deal because Eric would cost them nothing, plus eric would be able to help their locker-room.

Webster's Salary does jump next season, so I guess it could make some sense, depending on how much they liked Fernandez and Bayless.

Maybe a 1st and second with Sasha.
 
Why can't outlaw play the 2. Some of you guys don't even know what the hell you are saying.

For Outlaw to have a 44% field goal percentage is not bad at all since he operates on the perimeter.

He has a good midrange game, can play with his back to the basket on the mid post. He can space the floor out and knock down shots. He is athletic and very agile, I see him guarding Kobe when the lakers play the trailblazers. He doesn't do a bad job at it, his length will bother alot of people if he guards the 2's for us. Such as Ray Allen, Joe Johnson, Kobe, etc....

Alot of you guys talk about how a SF can't play SG which is PURE NONSENSE. The way Outlaw plays is pretty much how a SG plays. He doesn't need the ball in his hands to be effective. Alot of jumpshots are assisted which is good thing since he moves without the ball something we could use on this team next to guys like Lebron and Mo (who do and will do the ball handling).

If we had a shot at Outlaw I would love for Ferry to try and get him.

Naturally the SG should have some handles and Outlaw doesn't. We might be able to cover that up with Bron and Mo, though. He would also run into the same problems that Lebron would if either of them moved to the 2. They would be exhausted from playing defense on some of the SGs in the league.
 
Martell and Frye for Sasha, 2 firsts would be a perfect trade to me

And we still have wally to trade or just let his contract expire

Martell gives us that shooting of the bench and he is really athletic and has alot of potential

Frye gives us that mid range and post up game off the bench

Not sure if portland would want to do that because they are looking to contend this year
