    Batum, Rudy and Bayless will all come back better next year, plus the Blazers will add Martell.

    Can't wait.

    because of this. use that money to get andre miller/bibby/kidd or some other pg that can be of any use at all. and hope martell and oden come back next year ready to contribute.

    Batum will be scary if he adds some more offense to his game, that's what I'm looking forward to the most.

    Oh, and Bayless. Blazer fans want a guy to get to the basket? Bayless is your guy.

    Ron Artest sounds like a really nice guy.

    It's hard not to like Artest. Mentally he's so weird it just makes me laugh.

    Are you guys sure we can really just waive Steve Blake?
    Maybe we can actually sign Ron Artest and Andre Miller this offseason. Or maybe pickup a nice backup PF like Brandon Bass to replace Outlaw.

    Miller/Bayless
    Roy/Rudy
    Oden/Joel
    LA/Bass
    Batum/Webster

    That looks like a pretty solid 8 man rotation. Just draft a couple of guys to fill holes/develop and get a couple of fairly cheap veterans for emergency depth and roll with it.

    Where is Artest in that Rotation? or did you just decide to leave it at Miller?

    That was with his Bass instead of Artest scenario.

    I have long been a fan of Bass - kid just hustles down everything and for some reason half of the opposing team forgets he's on the floor. He makes you pay for it. He's like a lesser version of Milsap.

    ok was just wondering.. I like Bass too.. but wonder if he would be happy with the role he would have here.. not many minutes behind LaMarcus.. unless Bass can play some 3.. Maybe he can I just am not overly familiar with his versatility positionwise.
