    We don't get Faried. We don't get Jordan Hamilton. And we trade Rudy AS WELL?

    And on top of that, we were promised Rondo...

    This is not a good day if it shakes out like that.

    A 23 year-old combo guard rookie and a 27 year-old average starting point guard.

    No help up front. No short-term improvement.

    Ugh.

    Hearing the Blazers employees on the radio try to make logical sense of this is even worse.

    i really hope this is not it...

    If it is, one of the worst trades for us I can remember. Makes no sense. Felton is an average shoot first PG. I don't see how our team can get any better with this addition and subtraction. Miller was really solid for us, holding the PG spot until we found our PG. Felton is NOT it (IMO).

    *sigh*

    No, it's worse. We give up Koponen too.

    Wow.

    Still, Cho had a good night...

    No, he's not a shoot-first PG. At least get that right. His assist % was 36% last year, while Miller's was 35.7%.

    I think Felton is an adequate, and younger, replacement. Plus, he showed he can play defense in Charlotte.

    Last year was an aberration for Felton. His career assist % is 32.

    Oh, and apparently Batum was a throw-in in that Denver trade.

    Those guys are just following Tweets like the rest of us.

    Their big news tonight was Rondo being a Blazer.

    Kidding! You've got to laugh, haven't you?

    I guess Dallas took notice of the way Rudy shut down Barea...

    Miller's is 35. 33 the last 4 years of his career.

    32 or 33. Big whoop.

    Whoops. My bad.

    Miller has averaged 32.05 in Asst% his past 4 years.

    I'm probably just wasting time looking up these stats, though. :)
