    Maybe ... I confess I don't know much about him except that he plays the 2 guard. If he really is the Blazers' target then you can pretty much guarantee that Rudy is done (maybe Bayless at some point too).

    FWIW, Chad Ford compares him to Jason Terry.

    How about Rudy and some cash to cover his salary and future second round pick? Clearly they think they need to add some wing depth with "Hot pants" Fernandez on his way out the door.

    Wasn't the rumor that SA wanted Batum but the Blazers snagged him before SA's pick.

    I think I like this Eliot guy. :D

    This was all I needed to read to know this is for real. I swear to God, if Portland picks a guy in the first round with bad knees I will scream

    Maybe the training staff now considers themselves the experts on knees in the league after the past 3 years? He'd certainly be able to share rehab tips and tricks

    It's all good. If we pick someone with pick #22 and actually play them, you'll scream anyway :)

    When have I ever screamed about playing young guys?

    Hopefully he's good at launching shots against the shot clock after Roy has to pass out of the ISO. If he can do that, he can play for Nate

    Actually I think I've come to a conclusion regarding Roy and the iso. I don't think we run it as much you say they do; I'll bet half of those one-on-one shots that Roy takes are coming off of "oh shit" offense.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    Yeah, I was pretty pissed when Portland went with their own evaluations over health concerns out of a San Antonio workout. Batum was a wasted pick.

    Batum didn't have leg concerns

    Oden and Roy both had them, and both have missed important time because of them
