    "Why am I so high on them after that bad of a loss? Because moving Nicolas Batum into the starting lineup is going to make them a beast. Just look what they did against the Hawks on the road Saturday night with Aldridge back. One negative: Jamal Crawford appears unhappy."

    Sheridans power ranking #11... Wow it took Nate half season to move nic and might have costed us our season. Sad.

    McMillan late on inserting the correct person into the starting lineup? Noo...say it aint so!

    Btw, "against the Hawks on the road"?

    I think Batum in the lineup is good.

    The problem is that Matthews can't really slide up to play 3 right? So when Batum plays @ 2 it eats into crawford's minutes.

    If you combine this with the Nash rumors I think I'd be willing to go:

    Nash/Childress
    for
    Matthews/Felton

    They save some dough (Matthews contract goes down, Childress' goes up), and Childress plays 3 well. Not sure why he's had such a tough time the last two years, but he was very promising as a young player.

    Heck if they really wanted to save money I wouldn't mind taking Frye back (along with a lot of portland fans). With the way Aldridge has established himself in the post it might not be a bad move.

    I need to start gambling again. Pretty much everything I have been saying about the team has happened.

    Batum and Wallace's compatibility and Felton being atleast being somewhat competent might be a turning point in this season. I'm not holding my breath though, I've been disappointed too many times this season. A nice 5 game win streak, or something after the AS break might change things quick.

    We are debating the existence of Jeremy Lin and calling SlyPokerDog names behind his back.

    I like to believe that Nate reads our board for advice religiously, but his internet has a 2-month delay. We need to start posting good advice SOONER.
