    It will be interesting to see what players are available to suit up tomorrow night.

    I'd include a 2nd round pick to make that happen.

    Flynn and Thabeet are both high 1st round busts, but both are young...worth a look...

    Source is telling me that the "#Blazers are trying desperately to move Raymond Felton." They have called every team this morning.

    With Wallace gone, that moves Nic back to starting SF, meaning that Crawford is needed at his more natural SG spot.

    Who would offer anything for Felton? I'd bet that the Blazers are just going to waive his ass.

    League source tells me the #Blazers will not trade Raymond Felton today. They couldn't find a taker.

    Man, Raymond Felton...talk about an epic fail contract year. Nobody's interested in giving anything at all for his services. Yikes.

    They'll probably try to work out a buyout with Felton.

    Nah fuck that, just waive him. Let the world know just how terrible he truly is. Buyout is saying "Hey we like you, but it's not working!"

    It's more like saying, "We don't want you here and we don't want to have to pay you money you aren't worth to play somewhere else. Let's cut a deal and then you can see if some other sap team is willing to take you on."

    Always weird seeing Fisher in a different uniform than LA. Why the hell would they want Jordan Hill?
