    about him in all this FA talk, guy is about 30 and can play PF, still has skills, any interest and what might he get?

    another guy is Troy Murphy who I have hear almost nothing about, could be cheap and the guys has offensive skills

    Kirilenko would be AWESOME. He has been amazing all Summer and for CSKA Moscow. He could start at PF with LaMarcus at C, and with him, Aldridge and Batum (with maybe Wallace at SF and Batum at SG) the Blazers would have an incredible defense.

    BUT:

    CSKA is probably already paying him more than the full mid-level. He's going to have to get an offer from a team under the cap to tempt him.

    thx for the update, had not heard about him, he might just stay in Europe then and we probably don't have enough money

    That doesn't seem to matter to the Blazers

    I think I've heard that Landry might have a bit of a bum knee as well....

    I heard the Russian Nets owner loves him and will consider bringing him in after they amnesty cut Outlaw. The Nets probably are aiming for the top free agents like Nene and Chandler first, but if that doesn't work....

    Hell they burned $9 million of cap room on Outlaw and Johan Petro last off-season.

    if the Nets go after Nene or Chandler then does that imply they have lost fairh in Lopez and will move him, makes no sense otherwise IMO

    Well I meant top free agents like those two, Caron Butler, maybe Jason Richardson. Chandler and Lopez don't make much sense but I think Nene would be great at PF.
