    I suspect we won't be hearing anymore "Mar-cus Cam-by" chants in the RG again. We give all the love, and for what?

    Is it too late to resign Barron?

    Re: Camby to get an MRI tomorrow

    When will management ever learn? They keep drafting guards, then sign even more FA guards like Crawford, then must later scurry to find Oberto, Sean Marks, etc. Who is the MORON who chose Armon Johnson over Earl Barron?

    Get us depth at center, not guard!! Get Juwan Howard back here!!

    Re: Camby to get an MRI tomorrow

    I got to agree, jlprk. I don't think cutting Armon Johnson was considered as an option though. Don't forget, though, that they got us Kurt Thomas who was a very solid player for Chicago last year. And we have Chris Johnson and Craig Smith. And Aldridge can (and will) play some center with CJ, Smith, or Wallace moving to PF. We're gonna be okay.

    Re: Camby to get an MRI tomorrow

    Management was flummoxed last season. They couldn't choose between Barron, Marks, or Chris Johnson. It took the fans to tell them to choose Chris Johnson. Remember when it was up in the air over who we would keep? They didn't think it was an important decision.

    Team scouts and Buchanan just don't place any priority on Center. They just don't realize that the position needs more attention than they've given it ever since we drafted Oden, whom they sincerely believe will return. They are blind about stocking up at Center.

    Soon they'll be scurrying about stomping out fires, instead of planning in advance and preventing problems by putting an extra center on the roster.

    agree, the aging and falling off bandaid that is Camby was an expensive failure and here we are with him having a sore knee after two weeks of camp - fuk that chit. We got killed on the boards last night.

    Re: Camby to get an MRI tomorrow

    Rebounding is definitely going to be our achille's heal this year. Camby helps tremendously in that area, but we will probably only get 50-54 games from him this year. That should be okay though. I would like to have signed Przybilla but perhaps he is retiring?

    Camby has not been a failure by any means.

    According to Quick, Pryz is pretty sure he is NOT retiring, but he wanted to spend Chritsmas at home with all of his family, so he may sign with a team as early as next week.

    Blake and Travis would've helped a lot more on the boards.

    Marcus Camby to have MRI Thursday

    "Marcus Camby is set to have an MRI on his sore left knee Thursday and missed Wednesday's preseason game after suffering the injury in shootaround."

    Huh, so he suffered an injury at shoot around before the game. I didn't hear about this I thought he was just resting last night...

    Anybody else remember hearing about this?

    Turns out that Camby just wants to spend Christmas at home with his family. The Oregonian says we need more quality character like this on the team, and by the way, you won't get your paper till after Christmas so they can practice what they preach.

    Any news on the MRI yet? Are the Blazers going to tell us anything? Or are they going to keep it a secret like they do with Oden?
