    Sorry, but i dont get it Z for zach, and Bo for ???? anyways, u guys just need to lose these guys. They will be hard to move, but you have a solid young core, and these guys are just gonna hurt their developement.

    I don't think Miles will be that hard to move. He was having a breakout year last year until he went down with knee surgery. It was his first major altercation or incident in his NBA career with a coach/team, and I don't think its a coincident that it happened with the Blazers.

    Randolph on the other hand, is a very good player, he lacks on the defensive end, and sometimes falls in love with his jumpshot, but he's really tough to stop in the post. I believe I brought up a C-Webb for Randolph type trade, it would benefit the Blazers for sure. Webber has 2 years left on his contract, and would be easy to trade after next year due to his large expiring contract. Plus he can still play, and will buy time for Aldridge.

    As for Randolph on the Sixers, when wasthe last time they had a low post scorer like him? Maybe that's the missing part of the team, because Tim Thomas, Tyronne Hill, KVH, Webber, McCullouch, Coleman, Deke, Dalembert among others haven't really done much for them in terms of scoring in the paint. Though, I'm not sure how the whole Cheeks and Randolph thing would workout though. I think Randolph will realize how he should be thankful to have a coach like Cheeks after what happend last year with McMillan. Randolph + AI = lots of money, but the Sixers have to do something significant to get this team to win.

    At the end of the 04-05 season Darious Miles had that 47 point 12 rebound game, he's got potential and was having a nice 2005-2006 campaign. You should keep him for at least another year and see what happens. Randolph makes about 11 million, C-Webb.... about 20. Tough luck there. It would have to be Z-Bo and some other scrub to make the salaries match.

    He has one year after this one. i dont see how it would really be that bad of a trade, except randolph isnt that tough inside, wich is what the sixers need.

    If The Blazers can trade Zach for someone like Allen Iverson or even a good good starter it will be great,BUT if they cant they should definetly keep him for one more season.
    I see Lamarcus as a 7 points 6 rebounds kinda guy, we need Randolph in case our rookies will need time to ajust...i find it hard to believe that zach's Value can go any lower.

    I wont mind if we'll trade Miles for an expiring contract because even if he'll lead the team the team will still lose plus i hate Small forwards who cant shoot :-)

    Can't wait to see where Miles goes, if anywhere. He's a baller. His only downside are his ft's. And maybe his attitude.

    I like the Sixers trade proposition, Dalembert and Randolph would hide each other's weaknesses well. Pulling off a trade would be tough though.


    Just for fun:

    Zach Randolph, Darius Miles, Juan Dixon, and a filler (player, pick, cash, w/e)
    for
    Vince Carter, Jeff McInnis (1 yr left in contract), Antoine Wright, and a filler

    Would Blazers fans be interested?
