    It's annoying that most of the players I'd like to see are internationals and will probably be tied up with their National teams. Ideally we'd see:
    PF: Freeland
    SF: Claver
    G: Mills
    G: Koponen

    BUT: Koponen will still be recovering from surgery, Claver and Freeland will probably be with their teams, and Mills might not even be retained.

    That leaves: Quincy Pondexter?

    Claver has no intention in ever coming here.

    Is that what he told you?

    The question was who would you like to see, not going to see

    He has said so in several interviews. He plans on staying in Europe the next several years at least. So yea he told me. Through the fucking internet.

    Here's my wish list:

    Oden (just to get the feeling of competition)
    Pendergraph
    Cunningham
    Mills
    Freeland
    Claver
    Koponen

    I'd love to see Freeland, Cunningham, Mills, and Pendergraph play... and obviously our new draft picks.

    I thought I read that Pendergraph, DC and Mills all would be playing for sure.

    I was thinking about going to Vegas the weekend of the 17th anyways, if I knew for sure the Blazers would play during the couple days I'd be there I'd go for sure.

    Mills will be an interesting case -- I believe he'll be a RFA, so I'm not sure he'll be eligible to play unless he and the team work out a quick deal (like within 2 days of the start of the free agency period).

    Of course we'll see Dante, Jeff, and our two picks (assuming that's what we're left with) and a bunch of undrafted free agents and D-league guys to round it out. Maybe Bayless will even take another crack at trying to play a true point guard role, but I suspect he's beyond that.

    KP will be speaking (as GM of Blazers). Interesting.

    I'll add Pondexter/Damian Jones and also Batum to the list, but only to feature Batum as a point forward and let him handle the ball as much as possible.

    I know Nic will be playing for France, but I can dream!

    "(N)ever" = "next several years"?
