<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Sources tell KATU the Blazers are working on a blockbuster deal with Milwaukee that would bring Michael Redd and Keith Van Horn to Portland for Abdur-Rahim and another player. The Blazers general manager, John Nash, will only say that he's still listening to offers.</div> KATU.com The link doesn't seem to be working however, go to their Home Page and go to and go to 'sports.' Then make sure you go to the TrailBlazers. _________________ I'm liking this trade by Milwaukee. They get a nice post threat in Abdur-Rahim, they get rid of Van Horn's contract, and at least get something for Redd. They save a bundle on cap room this off season which will be very instrumental in getting good players. I would like to see Redd traded for a good player, but sometimes you juist have to do what you have to do. Redd most likely isn't returning and at least they get something out of him.
In all i think if this trade goes through, that the bucks will really be trading shareef for Vanhorn. I dont seee redd staying in Portland after this year idf this goes thorugh.

Im liking the fact that Milwaqukee will actually be getting someone out of this and Im sure they would be getting someone else whos not that bad. This trade looks alot better than that Lakers/Redd trade.
I think they should trade Miles in the deal too if they could, as the other player PG- Mo Williams/TJ Ford SG- Desmond Mason SF- Darius Miles PF- Shareef Abdur-Rahim/Joe Smith -C- Dan Gadzuric Definitly better than what they have right now. However, SAR might leave after the season, but he might returned if he sees that he can get PT there and have a nice chance to win.
They do lose that great shooting game that they used to have. It better be fast paced, high energy game so Mason, and Miles can do well. They thrive in tranition so Mo Williams and James will have to push the tempo.
