    It does make you wonder if mixy understands that the rest of us can read what he's writing and it gets archived.

    The Bayless trade has finally convinced me that there's poster here who is only here to get a rise out of people.

    When I read that Cho had remarked, "Bayless is not a true Point Guard", I thought KP must be spitting up in his Wheaties a bit...that is, if he still reads the PDX papers.

    Playless is finally gone! Webster...finally gone!

    Now let's make a move for Varejo so we have a back-up PF and get this season underway.

    I think even KP would admit that Bayless wasn't a true point guard when he drafted him. I suspect he thought Bayless could be converted into a passable one.

    If you look at how KP filled the roster, he filled it with athletic guys that could get up and down the floor. Nate doesn't play that way, so a lot of those guys don't really fit well with Nate. KP traded for Bayless because he was easily the best pick at that draft slot, and played well with Roy.
