    My inside source told me Nate Mcmillan is going to be canned in favor of new head coach; Lil Wayne

    Is this too far fetched? :lol:

    Our rotation following the trade:

    Miller/ Bayless
    Roy/ Rudy
    Jefferson/ Batum/ Webster
    Aldridge/ Evans
    Oden/ Joel/

    I like Andre Miller and Jefferson. I'd do that deal Nate.

    Some might see Miller as too old though.

    I'm not sure but making a 4 way trade would almost be impossible.

    Some might see him as a free agent who would leave.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I liked Richard Jefferson. A few years ago. He's fallen on hard times, though, and is not a very good player anymore. He's no longer an upgrade on Outlaw and may be a downgrade. A few years ago, he was a very good player.

    That's been the plan all along, and it's working wonderfully.

    Bake it!

    That's all well and good assuming there is only one deal that has been put on the table and that Quick's sources (who may or may not be within the Blazers) are hearing the same things as Rice, Barret and Wheelz.

    I'm guessing lots of things have been discussed, and where you see that all of these "clues" you are putting up all point to a single target, I tend to think we're talking about two or three sets of clues for two or three different targets.

    I agree... I seriously doubt there's one deal that's on the table, just waiting to be accepted. If KP is close to having one deal on the table, I'd bet he has more than one close.

    This deal would be an arrow through my heart. Outlaw and Bayless are two of my favorite players in the league.
