    This is awesome. Utah is fucked. Only OKC could fuck this up for us now.

    I can get behind this move. The kid is a tough player with a good attitude.

    *drools*
    Sources say Millsap has told the Blazers he would be amicable to playing behind LaMarcus Aldridge, the Blazers' returning power forward and one of the franchise's cornerstones. The Blazers are hoping Millsap provides some interior grit and toughness, two qualities that were lacking in a first-round playoff loss to Houston

    I'm kind of thinking this is a chess move. Try to make Utah match so we can force them into a deal. If they don't, we get Millsap.

    I would guess a massively front loaded contract.

    Like, 90 million the first month or something.
