    Probably so with roy. Though I disagree on Camby and Wallace. I think if or when you find a guy you can build around(Aldridge), the contracts aren't as crippling, and actually having more 5-10 million dollar contracts on the books is probably better for trade purposes.

    Spoke with Austin Carr at Cavs practice court, agreed Clippers a team worth getting excited about. Also agreed we'd never said that before.

    Rumor his Dr. said he needs to stop playing (bad back). RT @kevinajones7: Luke Walton may retire? That's the first I've heard of that.

    Yeah, just like the Bulls after Jordan left. They sure proved that "organizations win championships".

    And I guess you must've really loved the Nash years, when the Blazers "did it right".

    Cause we don't have a championship caliber team already. We need to get there before we can bring in specialists to help us get over the top. First we have to get to the top.....or even 1/2 way to the top

    Poor drafting caused a lot of the Nash issues. Portland got themselves into position to score big, but they drafted the wrong people. That's not the systems fault. No one thought Telfair or Webster should have been drafted so high. Nash was in charge of two drafts, and had he drafted who Pritchard wanted, or even who the entire basketball world thought we should take things would have been different.

    Instead of Telfair - Al Jefferson
    Instead of Webster/Jack - Chris Paul

    However, didn't Nash give those stupid contract extensions to Ratliff, SAR, Zach, Darius?

    I think all of them. That's why I said it wasn't the system as much as it was the man

    Billy King released a statement that Travis Outlaw broke his right hand and more would be known when he visits with doctors later this week.

    Apparently it's an injury from boxing.
