    Blazers are operating as if they have full MLE, which means Brandon Roy will either be amnestied or the team receives a medical exception

    All three teams - Blazers, Kings and Knicks - are offering Crawford a one-year deal. He wants to test free agency again next summer.

    As I recall Crawford started his NBA career as a PG. Not a good one, but certainly could be used in a pinch if everyone else got hurt. And you know with us that could happen.

    Yes I remember when the Bulls drafted him thinking how enticing a tall PG like that is.

    I'd love for us to get Crawford on only a 1 year deal! He may be our starting SG on opening night, and could fill in for Felton for a few minutes here or there. Felton was spotted at an IHOP today ordering the left side of the menu.

    So we still have our BAE. That's about $1.7mil starting.

    Any bigs out there we could get for that?

    Reggie Evans once he figures out he isn't going to make very much.

    To offer Crawford $5 million we have to amnesty Roy. If he signs we'll still have one free roster spot, which we use on whatever the best big man we can find at the vet minimum or the BAE.

    I wonder if in a few weeks Pryzbilla or someone else wants to play, would we consider cutting Armon to add another big man? Crawford or Elliot can play the role of temporary 3rd and 4th PG for this team. I don't see any sort of a role for Armon on this team. With injuries and fouls I think its much more likely we need to sign TWO additional bigs to bring our roster to 15.

    Is he restricted? I'd think he goes for more then BAE. If not the Warriors are even more retarded for giving Kwame $7 million.

    ooh intriguing.

    God Damn, how sweet would it be if Freeland could come over now. He's better than all these fools getting PAID this offseason.

    Nope I didn't include him. If we can't get anyone better with the BAE or Vet min I suppose we could keep Earl Barron.

    Camby/Chris J
    LMA / Thomas
    Wallace / Batum /Babbit
    Matthews/Crawford/Elliot
    Felton/Smith/Armon

    Plus an injured Oden takes our roster to 14 giving us only one spot. I think we have to bring in another big man. So yeah after that I think I'd keep Armon over Barron but I'd cut Armon if we can get Pryz or another solid vet at the minimum.
