    Do the Blazers need another McCollum on the team? It might be quite intriguing.

    No, he'd ruin development. Plus I hear he drinks like a fish. Also he wears shoes that aren't allowed next year.

    I actually like McCallum. But, since its your idea, no.

    McCollum would take minutes from McCollum

    J.J. Hickson was signed by Washington. We should have grabbed him.

    You do realize that they don't actually have the same last name right? Also, he'd have no chance to take minutes from CJ.

    It would be fun just to see Mike Rice try to keep it straight.

    May or May Not be better than Roberts - but he certainly has better size, and is younger. (Fits the Age group of the majority of the Blazers)

    Possibility he could hold more value in a trade then Roberts (due to potential - McCallum is only 24 years old).

    [ and bonus of giving Rice fits if McCollum and McCallum are ever on court together! ]

    I've always liked Ray McCallum and would definitely be on board with management picking him up if they did so. Completely OK with dropping Kaman to make room for him. I doubt it happens, but it would make sense to me.

    Pass. It's too late in the season. It would have to be a player with more upside into next season.

    OK, now I definitely want the 7th seed. Dre's first round and out curse will be tested.

    IMO, we should PASS on adding anyone else to this team this season.

    1. It would mess with chemistry
    2. It would mess with summer cap space

    I thought everything blazers related is the fans business.
