    I think Granger is doing what he has to do to get waived so he can sign with a contender. My guess would be Miami.

    My question is could the Blazers sign him?

    Sure they could, but the most they could offer him is the veteran's minimum. Money being equal, he would likely choose another destination over Portland.

    That sort of good will would ensure that you would have to well overpay to ever get someone to play for you, however.

    Well, I think we can offer him a bigger role than San Antonio or Miami could.

    :lol: About halfway through the stat line I thought, "man, Dorell's as good as Granger!" And then slapped myself hard on the face. :lol:

    If anything, it just shows how low Granger has slipped.

    He's averaging around 20 mpg and Dorell is only averaging around 13. Their shooting percentages are nearly identical, and so is their PER. I just thought it was pretty funny.

    I thought of wright too when people starting talking about how pissed they were that grangers being bought out. He sucks now. Everyone would jerk off for a week if we got him and curse him after that week for playing like Shit.

    Sounds like Charlie Villanueva also might get a buyout. Any interest there?

    He'd be 1 for 1. Had Roy and GO stayed healthy, we'd still be chasing titles and KP would still be here. Nothing for him and PA to be so bitter about if we're collecting trophies at One Center Court. Oden told ESPN the mag he wanted "about 7, 8, or 9 rings" . . . before his first micro surgery.

    Is he really that bad now? He looked okay when we played them a few weeks ago. I thought the problem was that Indy has Paul George now, and they don't need two SF.

    I think it's more Bird than KP.
