    With Marty gone now, we can't get rid of Rudy!

    Unless they think that Babbitt can replace his shooting.

    We all of a sudden NEED Rudy's outside game right?

    We needed it last year as well. If he could have provided it, it would have been good.

    Selling Rudy when his value is low would be a bad move.

    Portland drafted a big 6'9" guy who can shoot the three and who can play some 4.

    Sound familiar?

    Yes. We all miss Travis Outlaw.

    Does Williams make Rudy expendable? We have no outside shooting if we get rid of Rudy though!

    Elliot Williams makes Rudy expendable.

    Completely ... unless Bayless is on the move to the San Antonio Spurs in part of a deal to bring Parker here.

    If Rudy stays, that means the team has 7 guards (counting Mills).

    What a waste of a day. They should have just sold the picks.

    I don't think that is necessarily true. We still haven't seen what other changes are coming. In addition I think Williams, Babbitt and Claver if he plays for us this year make up for Rudy and have a stronger all around game.

    Don't let Batum hear you say that.

    Rudy is being replaced by Elliot Williams.

    If Rudy's going to bitch and whine like he did in the postseason again, then yes we should get rid of him.

    Waiting till he's a no-show at training camp will just drive his stock lower. I have a feeling he's going to force a trade if he's not moved in the near term.
