    So, last year Olshey was on Hibbert's doorstep one second after midnight with a big fat offer. Is there anyone that he'd do that for this year?

    Josh Smith. He may play PF and not C, but he has a game that will perfectly mesh with LMA. What one has, the other is missing, visa versa. It might not be a C, but is a great running-mate for LMA.

    I think it is Pekovic even though I also think that is a bad idea. He is going to get matched.

    Well, I guess the answer was "Thomas Robinson", because there goes the cap space to go after anyone really interesting.

    Quick suggests maybe Pachulia is that guy for Portland.

    Holy hell.

    Actually a better player than many give him credit for being. If you are thinking going that route though you might as well not and just start tanking.

    Pachulia is a surprisingly decent 10 mpg guy. Better him than Jermaine or Dalembert. But yeah, pretty bathetic.

    Does Quick ever break any Blazer news?

    Management hasn't liked him for at least 10 years.

    They are waiting for Dwight Howard dominoes to fall. Might get Asik. RT @Nick253_: Still no legitimate center in Portland -- @JonesOnTheNBA

    Whoever had Splitter looks to be a winner at this point.
