    After i just posted i was thinking we may need him to play against Perkins and Bynum, hate them both. Heres some Barron highlights, dudes got a nice touch! Spot the Sergio and watch him drive past perkins.

    Charlotte kind of screwed over Sean Marks by releasing him on 3/3, didn't they? Of course, considering the Blazers would likely now have Marks instead of Barron, that's a good thing.

    The Daniels signing was a smart move by Philly. Meeks and Turner don't have a chance guarding Wade. I think Daniels will get a lot of minutes just by pestering Wade.

    I remember when Daniels was the #4 pick back in the day.

    So do I. It was in 1997. Daniels doesn't have a chance at guarding Wade, either.

    He's got experience on Meeks and Turner. Daniels has always been a solid defender.

    They didn't get him to guard DWade. They got him to spot Holiday 10-15 mins of rest.

    That's true. Collins seems more likely to give Meeks and Turner playoff experience, though, over playing a washed-up, yet pesky, Daniels.

    I see this as an Earl Barron signing. A spot to fill, and you hope you don't have to use him more than a few minutes in a game, or even a series.

    Injured (hamstring). That's why they signed Daniels in the first place.

    The Portland Trail Blazers place Earl Barron on their Active List and Luke Babbitt on their Inactive List for tonight's game vs. Memphis.

    Ripped his hamstring. May not be at 100% for the rest of the season, including playoffs.

    I heard it was not as bad as they originally thought and he'll be playing the 1st game of the series.
