    If you could send a player on the Blazers to a current or former NBA player's summer basketball camp where would you send them?

    My picks -

    Roy - Jason Terry's

    Batum - Pippen's

    LMA - Dirk's? Karl Malone's?

    Not exactly what you asked, but I'd send both Aldridge and Oden (as soon as he's healthly) to Pete Newell's Big Man Camp and I'd have Tim Grgurich work with Andre Miller on his jump shot.

    If I was limited to former players, I'd have Aldridge and Oden working with Kevin McHale on low post moves and foot work and Moses Malone on offensive rebounding.

    And, they aren't Blazers, but I'd send Andrew Bynum to Camp Crystal Lake and LeBron James to Daddy Day Camp.

    Pete Newell's is great! I think Kermit Washington runs it now with Newell's son.

    I think Wes Matthews would get more out of Grgurich's camp.

    Roy - Steve Smith's camp to play with degenerative health conditions and still be very valuable to your ball club camp.

    LMA - Karl Malone's hicks play hard camp

    Batum - Tyshaun Prince's camp of perfect role playing

    Oden - Nene's rehabilitation camp

    Fernandez - Fisher's camp of playing undersized.

    Matthews - Hornacek's keys to consistant shooting camp

    Send Rudy to Peja Stojakovic's summer camp. Send LaMarcus to Zach Randolph's summer camp. And PLEASE send Andre Miller to Jason Kidd's summer camp.

    A bit left field but Patty Mills to spend the summer/winter training with his favourite Australian Football team (Adelaide Crows) to build his core strength.

    Oden - Sex Rehab with Dr.Drew - Stories I've heard, things I've seen.

    Dre - Donald Trump's taking credit for things camp - Dude needs to start taking his deserved credit for his hard work, even if he has to learn it from a guy who takes credit for things he didn't do.

    LMA - Kevin Love's summer family home in L.O. - Mostly just to kick his ass for all the snubs.

    Rudy/Nic/Patty - Band Camp - If you don't want to see the ensuing American Pie movie then I cannot help you.

    Nate - Unfolding your arms camp - self explanatory.

    Roy - Guest spot on House - If anyone could fix those knees, it's House

    Gerry and Camby can sit the summer out. Mostly cause I can't think of anything for them.
