    Cheap. He'd be a great get.

    And it is a good list.

    Jeff Green looked flat out horrible with the Celtics after he was traded. He doesn't have a good first step and can't shoot all that well. Not a fan.

    Omer Asik seems to me to be a player that the Blazers ought to consider making a run at.

    The fact that it has Beasley at #3 instantly discredits the list.
    Where's Dragic? I would also be interested in some players currently not in the NBA (like Pops Mensah-Bonsu - watch him for GB when you're checking on Joel Freeland) before many of those. Slim pickin's.

    (I third Asik, though.)

    Lou Williams intrigues me. Has a bit of leadership quality, a PG who can shoot and for some reason I think him and LA would click

    Pretty similar to Crawford.

    Ouch . . . that comparision is enough to keep most Blazer fans away.

    You see Williams as more of a SG than PG? I think Lou has better ball handling skills and is a true PG who can shoot. But I can see why you compare him to Crawford which mentally is the kiss of death for Blazer fans.

    He is in no way a PG. Next to him, Bayless is a PG.

    He's definitely more of a PG than Crawford..
