    yeah, we have been reading this for the past couple years, and for some reason this proposed trade seems less than any of the past years offers. Seems suspect.

    They want cap relief. That would give it to them, especially if Pryz retires.

    They'll get the cap relief regardless of it Przy retires. He has an expiring contract.

    Does this mean we're not getting Outlaw back?

    New version

    I've heard it involves Andre Miller and Camby...Augustin, I'd think would be included - vincent goodwill

    Przy retiring wouldn't matter. He's expiring.

    The Bobcats already have a decent(I guess) center rotation so maybe they would waive him and Przy would sign with the Blazers again after 30 days? That'd be nice.

    WTF. No. They can keep DJ. We'll stick with Dre and Marcus.

    And that's a lot of salary from our end. They'd have to throw Diaw or SJAX in there. And I don't want those guys.

    Looking at efficiency - Batum's first 3 years are much better than Wallace's. Batum does not need an excuse. You could actually argue that Batum's better efficiency is against better players where Wallace was not as efficient playing a lesser role against lesser players.

    It's funny how two of KPs' biggest targets, harris and Wallace, seemingly, now also are Cho's. More the scouts doing than anything?

    Good Point, that would make it bearable to loose Camby, but I doubt the Cats let go of DJ.

    To me this trade makes a line up simple

    LA, Wallace, Batum up front

    It would matter if he retired immediately. It would save the cats about $2.4M over the remainder of the season.

    Yes to the best of my knowledge. Also, LMA was hoping that the Blazers draft DJ in the past.

    You wouldn't want Augustin? He averaged 18/7 last month on decent shooting percentages for a PG. He's lightning quick with a great handle and would be a nice uptempo PG. He can really push it.
