    When I left, Chris Paul was the big news and now I came back excited to see what transpired during the week, and all I see are a bunch of OT threads and Rudy trade proposals..

    Did anything at all happen, any news about Paul, any new rumors, just what the fuck does a Blazer fan need to know about this past week.

    Thanks for filling me in,

    GOD

    actually he had a meeting on monday with New Orleans, didnt' amount to much. can't read anything into anything.

    bottom line is New Orleans isn't keeping Paul.

    There were a bunch of arguments, and people called each other names. Tweets from random strangers provoked 300-post threads. Hypothetical trade proposals were proposed. Meaning was sought in random comments on the BFT.

    Just another week at S2. Luckily for you, we preserved all the posts so that you could read them all now. We'll wait while you do that.

    Thanks.

    I know that the Paul think is a longshot, but I just want to make sure that he did not get traded to some other team. If it helps, I will throw in a six pack to seal the deal. Shinn must need a drink by now.

    *T-Wolve's GM Kahn has acquired twelve more point guards for Minny, while still holding the rights to Rubio!;

    *Nate has hired Bickerstaff as an assistant - and Bickerstaff no sooner admitted that he's been senile ever since the day he drafted Nate!;

    *Rudy has formally requested a trade to the Celtics (and GQ magazine is featuring him on the cover of the August issue, with the caption, "Boston's new bi-lingual Leprechaun;"

    *NBA shoots one over the Stern (Bow) warning teams not to tamper with Chris Paul;

    *Cho is now the "main man" in charge for the Blazers (Cho-Main anyone?);

    *No one here has supported any of my 32 proposed trade ideas.....and,

    *KP and Penn remain unemployed...but both are rumored to have hired HCP as their agent!

    Actually from what I hear, we would make the most sense because of the expiring contracts and the fit for us. But Batum would be a must for NOH

    The also NBA mentioned 'consequences' for those who were trying to persuade Paul to leave New Orleans.

    I think this has contributed to the overall lack of news by the media.

    You actually had one really good trade and got lots of compliments for it. I can't remember what it was. Good summary.
