    LOL - So this didn't happen (articles just like it were plastered all over NBA news sites for a year):

    Barring some sort of language barrier or misquote, “a senior member of Rubio’s camp” seems to have confirmed to the New York Times what we all pretty much knew — Ricky Rubio does not want to play for the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Timberwolves continue to push him toward the N.B.A. as soon as possible, contending privately that they have a commitment from him for next season. But Rubio’s camp does not appear to be convinced. “The bottom line is, why would he want to play in Minnesota?” a senior member of Rubio’s camp said this month. “He’ll continue to say all the diplomatic things, and Minnesota needs to keep his value up for trade purposes, but the family’s preference is to be on the East Coast, specifically New York, Miami or Boston. He wouldn’t be troubled if he has to stay another year.” But the Timberwolves have leverage. They hold his exclusive draft rights, meaning they are the only N.B.A. team with whom he can negotiate. Their latest strategy in try...

    As for Flynn, he's gone. He was just a throw-in on a trade. Gladly, we weren't the sucker NBA team that wasted a high-lotto on him. I sure feel bad for whichever team wasted that pick.

    Next season with a front line of Aldridge and Hibbert who do you think will score more, the Blazers or a 300 lb pimple faced ginger living in his moms basement? My money is on the ginger... So Fez Hammersticks, you see, there is still hope for you.

    So ironic. :biglaugh:

    You guys don't even have the cap space to sign Batum. And you're talking about salary cap?

    unless it came out of ricky's mouth do not believe, he said himself he likes the small market better because there is less pressure and the people are nicer. He has nothing but good things to say about the people of minnesota.

    Were your other 13k posts of this amazing quality?

    5-21 and still finished within 2 games of the Mighty Jailblazers with their trillionaire owner and a LLAMA on his deathbed.

    The difference is we have quality players at every position locked up for years. We dont need the salary cap. Its going to be tough for the Blazers to fill holes on that roster with no money to spend.
