    That Williams dude on the Blazers wheelchair basketball team. With him, Greg, Roy, Camby and Pendy last year they had a surprisingly successful season.

    I thought you could only give undrafted players a 1 year deal, and then since you can't extend 1 year deals you would have to wait to sign them long term in FA. I'm not very clear on how that works.

    I'm guessing they will try to trade either Armon or Patty at some point; Patty is considered an asset that they didn't want to give up for nothing.

    What are the chances PA buys out Johnson's contract?

    Not too good. They'd just waive him and eat it. Johnson has little/no incentive to agree to a buyout if his money is guaranteed.
