    I believe he is a UFA and he had a 21 PER this season. I'd take him over Jordan. Prob cheaper too. Kaman is also available but Wright would be the one I'm interested in. Thoughts?

    He's better than Jordan and Gortat.

    Personally I want a little more bulk. 210 is too small for a SF let alone your starting center.

    Wright averaged 1.2 blocks per game in only 19 mpg.

    Jack had more turn overs off his foot than his blocks

    No wait that was Etan, right? Etan kept taking Brenda's job so they kept having fights.

    They should make his career into a long-running soap opera.

    I'd rather have Jermaine O'Neal to mentor Leonard and Wright.

    We need to get more physical IMO. I like a center who can blocked shot, but if that was the only criteria we could have kept Chris Johnson. He is the same size as Wright.

    Wright has a 21 PER. CJ does not.

    Giving up a top-10 pick for an average 30 y/o Gortat...

    Even mentioning Brendan Haywood...

    This forum reeks of desperation.

    These are NOT moves that will get this team off of this decade-long treadmill.

    NEXT.

    OK I was embellishing my point. Wright is better than CJ. But still not big enough. The Blazers need to get more physical down low.
