    I am surprised no one wants to rent Camby for a month. I would like to move him too.

    mgmt today took a big 1st step in getting out of the doghouse with this trade if it is as reported. they still have a ways to go but at least this is a very good and BIG first step

    It's possible Camby has said he will retire if traded; he really hates moving.

    Right.

    Something along the lines of

    7th pick
    12th pick

    in a poor draft, that is Meh.

    in a deep draft, that is pretty damn fine.

    2008 draft:
    #5 - Kevin Love
    #6 - Gallanari
    #7 - Eric Gordon
    #10 - Brook Lopez
    #17 and after - Hibbert, Ibaka, Batum

    2006 draft (not even considered deep)
    #6 - Brandon Roy
    #8 - Rudy Gay

    2004 draft
    #7 - Luol Deng
    #9 - Andre Igudala
    #11 - Biedrens
    #14 - Humphries
    #15 - Al Jefferson
    #17 - Josh Smith
    #18 - JR Smith
    #20 - Jameer Nelson

    2003 draft
    #5 - Dwane Wade
    #6 - Kaman
    #7 - Hinrich
    #12 - Nick Collison
    #18 - David West

    2002 draft
    #7 - Nene
    #9 - Amare
    #10 - Caron Butler

    You get the idea.

    The team still has to draft well and have some luck go their way.

    One clarification to some earlier posts; we traded a 2011 and 2013 first round pick to Charlotte in the Wallace trade.

    Do the Blazers still have their 2012 1st round pick?

    That's where I draw the line. Let him rot at the end of the bench and eat his own bumbling, cancerous self.

    Let Erick Barkley V.2 play til the cows come home. Feature Batum and let LaMarcus start thinking about BBQ's back home in the Texas heat.

    I want Felton to the Lakers for their 2nd rounder and TPE. That's how badly I want Felton gone.

    It most likely says just agreed to in principle, and not official because we can not carry 16 players. So it's likely "done", but we need to make another trade or cut someone..

    I'm fine with that. We need to start rebuilding with younger players, and I want his playing time increased.

    GREAT WHITE HYPE! Maybe even another team saw his career numbers in the last 3 games and say "Hey maybe this kid isn't as bad as we thought" and we get some value in return for him. Every team needs the quota amount of white people on their team.

    Lakers get better, Portland gets worse. What else is new.

    Only a fanbase as beaten down as Portlands could actually be exciting about rebuilding, yet again.

    Hey just FYI guys, Portland can now trade their first rounder in a deal since they received NJ's.

    Crawford gone to Minne! Not!

    Sorry between working and on this board - hit the send too soon. I still think Crawford ends up in Minne.
