    I assume the Blazers just did a photoshop of it.

    IMHO that's a mild raping of Houston. I'll admit that I don't know how long Battier's deal is for so that would factor in.

    VERY. And pretty telling really--fuels the belief for some that KP overvalues his players.

    Standard company line on that one IMO CTC. He can't go out and say he's looking to make more moves or say we don't have enough depth because it would weaken his hand in trade negotiations. I think we'll see a move made for a more of a banger back up four unless they really think Pendergraph could handle that duty in spot minutes if Outlaw isn't getting it done.

    Re: BREAKING NEWS: Blazers to Sign Andre Miller

    So, we're looking at:

    1. Miller & Blake
    2. Roy & Fernandez
    3. Batum & Webster
    4. Aldridge & Outlaw
    5. Oden & Przybilla

    Wow. Ok. I'm down with keeping this intact.

    Replace Outlaw with a true PF and I'm right there with you.

    Quote I really like:

    More high-IQ guys like Andre instead of low-IQ guys like Travis ... good thing.

    But, to be fair, his players did just win finish the team way ahead of where most felt they would be. And, all of their young players, and there are a lot of them, will be another year better filling significant roles.

    If they do nothing more, I wouldn't be surprised if they reach the Finals next season.

    Roy has been pretty clear this summer that he wants 5.

    4 would definitely be an insult, I think.

    Or it could be that he doesn't want to tell every agent and GM out there that we're on the hunt for more talent.

    Ever played poker before?
