    Post-game, Barkley says we looked scary early in the season, we should be better, and there's something mysteriously wrong. Says Felton has lost all confidence. Shaq agrees.

    I'd trade Prince for 3 hours of Nash.

    23 year old Tayshaun Prince for 38 year old Steve Nash? No I wouldn't ... actually make that "fuck no."

    Actually Batum's better than Prince right now.

    Maybe you should apply for the vacant GM position?

    Blazers have a real opportunity with their cap space this off-season to re-tool the roster. (pending the trade of some players Wallace, Matthews)

    If they play their cards right we could be looking real good come this time next season.
    It would be a real shame if they traded that opportunity for a temporary fix (Nash), Head case (Rondo) or another Sub-par difference maker (Ridnour).

    Though this is Blazers management, so I fully expect to be exasperated by their coming decisions .(Nolan over Faried)

    I'm going out on a limb here. But, I'm going to predict that Batum (if under a new coach next year) is an All-Star in the West. Outside of Durant, their really is no other SF's. Watch and bump.

    Ya, but the position on the all star team is for "forwards" not "small forwards" or "power forwards." They'll have Durant starting, but backing him up, they will have LA, Love, Dirk, Gasol, Millsap, etc.

    You are aware that we could still have cap room this summer, even getting Nash?
