    This, according to Dime Magazine, would happen of the Por/Uta/Chi trade doesn't happen. Quick/YahooSports/Bucher all said this 3-way is not happening. So I guess you can take this with a grain of salt.

    If Millsap is matched, is Felton plan-C?

    Really not sure how good of a source Dime magazine is, but either way, don't want Felton.

    Felton is probably plan-Z-2.

    If plans went from A-Z, and then AA to ZZ.. it'd be about Plan QQ for me.

    Man..keep our fucking money if Felton is what's left..I'm confused though, why go after Felton when Andre Miller is right there?
    Also, if we fail on Millsap, go after Lee.......yikes what.a.summer.

    Did Casey ever explain who was on the plane from Charlotte that was "of interest to Portland"?

    Speaking of plan-C, or D-E-F-G-H, whatever plan KP is on, why would you choose Felton over Sessions? That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.

    For the same price? No

    I'm sure there is a lot that KP does that you don't or won't make sense to you.

    Looking at Felton's last season, I wouldn't take him over Blake at any price, much less Sessons.

    Comparison

    Felton looks like complete ass. Even for free he would take minutes away from another player.

    Just say no to Felton.

    Perhaps we would make an offer that would be reasonable enough we knew Charlotte would reluctantly match it, but expensive enough that it would force them further into the luxury tax and more receptive to a salary dump trade.

    This makes sense to me. It allows us to move Bayless in a pkg for Hinrich.

    Hinrich/Felton is far superior than Blake/Bayless.

    No way I trade Bayless for Hinrich. I like Hinrich and consider him an upgrade on Blake, but not enough of one to deal away Bayless.

    Well, if you sign Felton first, you are going to have to deal more than Bayless to match salaries for Hinrich. If you deal for Hinrich first, you can't sign Felton.

    Either way, I wouldn't deal Bayless for Hinrich, and I don't like Felton for Portland.

    First off no way we trade Bayless for Hinrich.

    Secondly, Felton is clearly a 3rd stringer behind ?starter/Bayless he is replacing Patty Mills as the hand clapper at the end of the bench who might see limited minutes if an injury crops up and Roy/Rudy are foul plauged.

    Felton will not see any meaningful minutes if this is true.
