  4. trades for players that would keep LMA as a focus in an uptempo offens

    Seems to me that D is the most attractive option, but if the right deal comes along for Aldridge, I think the Blazers would have to take it.

    I think the Blazers have two positions with big question marks, and they're the toughest two positions to fill: point guard and center. If the Blazers trade away the expiring contract known as Andre Miller (and even if they don't), they need to figure out who the good ball-handling, solid outside-shooting, floor general is going forward. And if the Blazers trade away Joel Przybilla and his contract, the Blazers are left with two centers with pretty shaky constitutions.

    How the Blazers choose to go forward with those two positions - more than what they'll do with Aldridge or Roy - is going to define what this team looks like in a few years.
