In KP we trust? At the time Freeland's deal was signed, he said they were in on the negotiations and that a buyout wouldn't be a problem. Hope he was accurate. http://www.blazersedge.com/2009/7/28/966931/the-latest-on-joel-freeland

So ... is McNichilocious Nik's non-mod alter ego? 27 posts in one day is a hell of an introduction to the board. Plus, if he isn't Nik, they should hang out, because their posts are similar in content.
Courtney Sims' numbers look decent enough to get him a shot... we already know marks isnt worth 8 mins a game
Yeah, he was mentioned on the Denver/Boston game tonight. He could work. However, I am glad that Pendy has been staying in the PDX area for rehab and he still shows up on "Talkin Ball" and shows up to Blazer games still.
Chris Hunter blew his ACL or MCL or something and hes done for a while. Hes not bad though. Troy Murphy and Darius Songaila could be available via buyout soon. Przybilla too.
Take a chance on a knucklehead? Sean Williams 6'10" 230 lbs. 24 years old 15 PPG 10 RPG 3 BPG PS. He's a knucklehead. Quite severely but he can block shots.
Gotta be one of the most talented players in the D-League. He wasn't bad as a rookie with NJ no? Maybe being out of the big league has humbled him.
Nope I am not him, but thank you for the comparison. I have been around the board for a bit, just never made a login. And there was a lot to talk about yesterday so 27 isn't TOO much.
Are we seriously not going to sign someone for this game on a 10-day? We have to have a couple of names in the hopper.
