C.J. McCollum Likes Article on Twitter That Argues Blazers Should Explore Trading Him

Next time you think about tweeting or writing something pertaining to any specific athlete, remember this piece of advice: Some of them are watching, perhaps ready to respond.

A select few of those serial watchers are also ready to passive aggressively let you know they’re watching.

Which brings us to C.J. McCollum, who recently liked an article on Twitter from Oregonian columnist John Canzano that argues the Portland Trail Blazers should explore trades for the soon-to-be restricted free agent.

Per Casey Holdahl, a digital reporter for the Blazers (h/t HoopsHype):

Did I actually laugh out loud upon stumbling across this?

Yes, yes I did.

And for what it’s worth, there’s no way Portland’s general manager, Neil Olshey, entertains offers for McCollum. It wouldn’t make sense. Not only does he figure to be a key part of the Blazers’ rebuild, he is earning just over $2.5 million this season, limiting the list of players for which he can moved.
