    Thank you! I had forgotten about him guarding Pierce!

    Not a big fan of acquiring Hinrich. Get someone that has at least a tad of creative ability.

    If this happens it will be the first move KP has made that I don't like.

    John Salmons guarded Paul Pierce the majority of that series.

    That's because he didn't. Salmons bodied Pierce all series and Hinrich filled in a bit when Salmons rested.

    I'm more worried about Hinrich guarding other PGs, not SFs. Batum will guard the SFs.

    So, with my first post on this forum I have to say one thing in regard to the thread title. That is, if the blazers do anything come draft night, I really hope we do not pull the trigger on a Hinrich deal. I mean if we are going to go out and trade good young prospects for a a 3-pointer shooting veteran with playmaking capabilities and help Roy in clutch situations then the last thing we can do is this guy who has a FAT contract and declining numbers over the past two years. I dont know but, it kinda smells like a Channing Frye situation. His numbers went down with the few yeas he played with knicks starting with a surprisingly good rookie season but ever since, he joined the blazers he has been playing like Joe Kleine with charisma and its not simply not getting the job done.

    So I say, HEY lets get someone who almost dealt Kobe the second loss in the finals in a row, see, use draft night as a salary cap cleaning marathon and then wait until free aget season and get Hedo. Because he with, Lewis, and Howard almost won it, and since they have some money issues in regards to cap it may be the perfect oppurtunity to lure him here and pair him, with Roy, Aldridge, Webster,Fernendez,Pryzbilla, maybe Outlaw,perhaps Bayless and of course a hopefully improving year for Oden. I dont know but I think thats the best way to go but we'll just see what KP genius has in store.

    Blake made Brooks look like Allen Iverson. What's your point, other then to try and rationalize a position that can't be backed up in anyway?

    Aaron Brooks did the same thing to the Lakers. He's just extremely quick; maybe the quickest in the league.

    What elite post players has Chicago had in the last five years? Ben Wallace? Side-show bob? Over the hill jump-shooting Brad Miller? Aaron Gray? Over the hill P.J. Brown? Tyson Chandler who didn't even average 9 points a game last year with the best PG in the NBA? Who?

    Really?

    Brooks had a better series against LA in terms of scoring and penetrating. Looks like that argument about Brooks doing worse against LA is false.

    I'm only saying that Blake is killed by "Blazer" fans for not getting Oden the ball. What makes anyone think Hinrich would be different?

    I would credit that to Howard being in the paint to alter shots more than Rafer Alston's defense.
