    Stopped by the PF on my way to Eugene to pick something up for my sons auction. The War Room was full! Talked to some of the guys......... Joel looked at me then looked at the clock....... Said, John I got 2 hours to go! He doesn't want to go anywhere!

    The way this forum is talking, I figured they'd all be at Jiggles making it rain.

    Even if Joel gets traded I'd love to see the blazers resign him in the off season, provided he can get healthy and regain some spring in his step.

    The starters are getting exhausted night in and night out. LA, Nic, Dre, and Wes are playing 40+ minutes every game. The bench needs serious help.

    A healthy Roy/Oden would do wonders but since i'm living in a dream world how about Joel/Camby for Dwight and then Batum/andre draft picks and cash for Igoudala/Holiday.

    Yep which is why one of the trades we missed out on, but is less heralded than many of the others, is really the one that pissed me off. Sacramento basically gave Carl Landry away to New Orleans. Carl Landry for Marcus Thornton with the Hornets using their cap exception to absorb the 3 million dollar contract. We could have done that, and probably provided a better player.

    Thanks for posting that. Always interesting to get a little sense of the tension on the team.

    All this makes you wonder how clear-headed our squad was last night. Makes me feel a little bit better about choking at the end of the game. Guys like Przybilla and Miller don't really know where they'll be playing next week, and everybody else is wondering if those guys are coming back...

    Yes we would make out like bandits with a 5'10 pg that really is a 5'10 sg, and a 32 year old SF that is only valuable is because he's expiring all for the price low low price of our starting center.

    The curse of thinking mediocre talent is untouchable.

    Oh well, at this point, I don't think anything will get done.

    Our 37-year-old center coming of knee surgery? He's untouchable!
